Is this the beginning of an Al'Queda pincer movement against Israel? DEBKAfile reports: At least two Egyptian policemen injured in an al Qaeda bomb attack on their armored vehicle in Sinai. Up in arms against Cairo, local Bedouin are freely aiding the Islamist terrorists August 24, 2005, 2:35 PM (GMT+02:00) The Egyptian vehicle which hit a powerful roadside device or mine August 24, was part of the Sinai pursuit team hunting al Qaeda terrorists in the Hasana region, 75 km south of the coastal town of El Arish. Al Qaeda last struck ten days ago, when one of its explosive devices injured two women sergeants, members of the US-led multinational force in Sinai. DEBKAfile’s counter-terror sources report that the investigation of the Aug. 19 rocket attacks on Aqaba and Eilat disclosed that they were executed by the Sinai networks, namely one of the teams run by Abu Musab al Zarqawi. Egypt thereupon built up its Sinai pursuit force to 4,000 men and equipped the units with armored carriers, armored mobile artillery and helicopters. But the force quickly ran into a major problem. The 1.2 million indigenous Sinai Bedouin are in a state of mutiny against the Mubarak regime in Cairo - and his security services in particular - to the point of being willing to aid and abet any anti-Egyptian force including al Qaeda. In consequence, American and Israeli terror experts define security in Sinai as out of control. They look askance at Ariel Sharon’s unheeding determination to put through the military protocol with Egypt and rely on Egyptian border guards units to police the strategic Gaza-Egyptian border and Philadelphi border route. Intelligence sources warn that, having lost control of security in Sinai, the Egyptians can by no reckoning be counted on as a bulwark against the free flow across those key borders of human terrorist traffic and weapons from Sinai into the Gaza Strip.
