Israel and Palestine are momentarily at a ceasefire, but the
potential reasoning behind the recess could have some real international
implications. Israel’s Debka reports that the pause in fighting comes
after the US promised to send troops to Sinai.
According to Debka, US troops will soon be en route to the Sinai
peninsula, Egyptian territory in North Africa that’s framed by the Suez
Canal on the West and Israel on the East. In its northeast most point,
Sinai is but a stone’s throw from Palestinian-controlled Gaza, and
according to Debka, Hamas fighters there have been relying on Iranian
arms smugglers to supply them with weaponry by way of Egypt.
Debka reports this week that Sinai will soon be occupied by US
troops, who were promised by President Barack Obama to Israel’s leaders
as a condition that a ceasefire be called. Once deployed, the Americans
will intervene with the rumored arms trade orchestrated by Iranians,
ideally cutting off supplies for Hamas while at the same time serving as
a thorn in the side of Iran.
“Once the missile and arms consignments depart Iranian ports or
Libyan arms bazaars, Tehran has no direct control of their transit from
point to point through Egypt until they reach Sinai and their Gaza
destination,” Debka reports. “All the same, a US special forces
operation against the Sinai segment of the Iranian smuggling route would
count as the first overt American military strike against an Iranian
military interest.”
The decision to send US troops to Sinai in exchange for a ceasefire
was reportedly arranged early Wednesday morning after Pres. Obama made a
deal over the phone with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In
the days prior, Israel was relentless in targeting Gaza, killing more
than 100 persons — including civilians — during a renewed assault on
Hamas. A ceasefire has since been called after a week of fight, but more
military action could soon occur, claims Israel, if the flow of weapons
to Gaza is not stopped.
Netanyahu has been adamant with his pleas for the United States to
strike Iran in an effort to disrupt its nuclear enrichment facilities, a
demand which up until now has been brushed aside by Pres. Obama. The
White House has up until now insisted on diplomatic measures in order to
make an impact on any Iranian output, but Debka’s sources suggest that
US troops may now have to intervene in Sinai if any smugglers should
attempt to move weapons into Gaza.
“By opening the Sinai door to an American troop deployment for
Israel’s defense, recognizes that the US force also insures Israel
against Cairo revoking or failing to honor the peace treaty Egypt signed
with Israel in 1979,” adds Debka.
According to their sources, US troops are expected in Egypt early
next week. Meanwhile, American forces have all but surrounded Iran and
are stationed in countless bases across the Middle East.
