JERUSALEM — Egyptian riot police used armored vehicles to try to restrict Gazans from taking cars into Egypt on Saturday, and the Egyptian foreign minister warned of “provocations” at the border. He said that at least 36 Egyptian security officers had been hospitalized, some in critical condition, after confrontations with Palestinians.

In a thinly veiled rebuke to the militant group Hamas, which runs Gaza, the Egyptian minister, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, said in Cairo that Egypt would show restraint but not at the cost of Egyptian lives.

“The Egyptian decision has been to allow in the sons of Gaza to ease their suffering,” he said. “This was the Egyptian decision taken a few days ago and we are still holding to it.”

Ah those peaceful Palestinians. They've thrown Lebanon into disarray. Their own country is in disarray. Now they're working on Egypt.

Somebody needs to hoist the "Bullshit" flag and quit pandering to these rabblerousers.
