⚡🇪🇬 Regarding the IDF tank that targeted the Egyptian post.

There are several theories that I'm seeing around, and I would like to state them for the sake of honesty.

1- Israel purposefully targeted it with the permission of Israeli high command, to either

1) See how the Egyptians would react to a slight escalation, in case Israel wishes to evict the Gazans purposefully across to Sinai

2) Drag Egypt into a war, considering Egypt is the only neighbor of Israel that has the manpower, equipment, and experience to fight a prolonged conventional, therefore solidifying American presence and forcing America to the war to protect Israel, a "New U.S.S Liberty" per say

2- The Israeli tank crew did this on their own perogative, three Israeli tourists were shot dead by an Egyptian Conscript in the Police, and before that three IDF soldiers were killed by an Egyptian soldier, therefore their emotions most likely were running high and did this independently.

3- The Israelis are trying to close the Rafah border crossing, and this was a message

The one thing of interest I would note is that suddenly, most of the opposition that was complaining that Egypt is being dragged into a war and that we should not mobilize more than the second and third army are now calling for war, fifth column or lowlifes? Beats me.

A response must be enacted, it may be of a military, political, or economic nature, who knows.

🇮🇱🇵🇸🇮🇷- Tonight, I had a conversation with my brother Sameh Shoukry, the Egyptian Foreign Minister, about sending humanitarian aid, and with Mr. Ismail Haniyeh and Mr. Ziad Nakhale, the leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. The resistance is strong on the side of Palestine. The political and security structure of the Israeli regime has collapsed and only its war machine works against civilians. - Hossein Amir-Abdollahian Iranian Foreign Minister on X
