Egyptian security forces uncovered a massive arms cache in the central Sinai Peninsula before dawn on Thursday allegedly intended for smuggling into the Gaza Strip, according to the Egyptian daily Al-Yum a-Saba.
The cache included 100 anti-aircraft missiles, 40 RPG missiles and 40 other explosive devices.
The commander of Egypt’s security forces in Sinai, General Mohammed Najib, was tipped off to the cache after he was notified that suspected arms smugglers had succeeded in stashing their weapons in the area.
Security forces and sappers have cleared the ammunition from the storage sites, many of them places which have served in the past as battle zones.
The Egyptian forces suspect the smugglers to be Sinai Bedouin who collected weapons found following battles with the goal of sneaking weapons into the Gaza Strip.

Try to imagine the rage which will be publicly expressed by Obama over the fact that the Palestinians are openly preparing for war even as he deftly negotiates peace.
Well, maybe “rage” doesn’t quite capture it.
“Total indifference” is more like it.

George Orwell would love it.
The liar condemns the truth teller for being honest.
There is a word specifically designed to describe someone who passionately defends those who publicly humiliate him.
The word is “coward”, and that term fits Netanyahu so perfectly he should have it tattooed on his forehead.
His relationship with Obama increasingly resembles the Nicole/OJ dynamic.
And the results will doubtlessly be the same.
