Story 1: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that Egypt is losing control of the Sinai Penninsula where there are a lot of terrorists who can go into the Gaza Strip and attack Israel or stage cross-border attacks.
Story 2: Arab newspaper reports an estimated 400 al-Qaida terrorists in the Sinai.
Story 3: Egypt opens border to Gaza Strip so money, terrorists, and weapons can flow in freely.
Bottom line: Western media (in part due to a stupid individual Israeli's personal analysis of situation) says that there's a "silver lining." Egypt, not Israel is now responsible for the Gaza Strip.
Coming in future weeks, no doubt:
Silver lining in Muslim Brotherhood takeover of Egypt;
Silver lining in Islamist election victory in Turkey;
Silver lining in Iran getting nuclear weapons.
Isn't that great?
