China, Egypt and the Sinai blasts, interesting timeline

With a sustained, growing economy, China is ready to cooperate with the international community, particularly members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) more effectively on the basis of mutual benefit and Saudi Arabia, as a major oil producing nation, is playing a vital role in the OPEC.

In July it came to light that there is a heavy presence of western intelligence agents in Darfur, in what has been called "bids to remap western Africa and tighten control of the neighboring Arab heavyweight".

"They want to infiltrate Egypt and keep a tight lid on Nile tributaries, necessary for Egyptians to survive."

Egypt cognizant of the fact that they are marked for infiltration by the United States and quite probably Israel who wish to tighten control over them announces they are ready to promote ties with China. This seems a means by which Egypt might also benefit from China’s protection. Egypt is very important to China as Chinese enterprises could see Egypt as a springboard for expanding their businesses in Africa, the Middle East and Europe.

Israel starts a new offensive in the Gaza Strip, where dozens have been killed.

On October 5, 2004 China “strongly urged” Israel to end military operations in the Gaza Strip.

Israel refused.

On October 7, explosions shook popular resorts on Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, where Israelis were vacationing Thursday night at the close of a Jewish holiday.

On October 7, Bush was on the phone to Hu Jintao of China for a long conversation but apparently the explosions were not discussed. Nor am I sure if the call was placed before or after the explosions. Scott McClellan, a White House spokesman, did not mention the shifts in Chinese politics, remaining vague about what prompted the call. He said it was "part of our continuing, constructive, cooperative and candid dialogue with China on U.S.-China relations."

Israel accuses al-Qaeda of masterminding the chain of blasts targeting Israeli tourists in Egypt's Red Sea resorts instead of the usual radical Palestinian militant groups.

Shalom said the fight against terror was far from being won since "organizations are behind it". Although he is not shy about saying ‘al-Qaeda’ he will not in this instance specify who the ‘organizations’ are.

China who sees Egypt as a springboard from which to expand their businesses or influence in Africa, the Middle East and Europe is a long time sponsor of al-Qaeda.

From China, a long time supporter of al Qaeda, came the concept for the second more deadly 9/11 attack against the United States, a major explosion at the World Trade Center, or a bombing attack by bin Laden.

China deploys 30,000 troops to the North Korean border.

I am not sure I know what is going on; only that it is not what we have been led to believe.

I watched the debate, the questions were worthless, people have no idea of the magnitude of what is about to transpire.

China to ease trade imbalance with Egypt
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2004-10-06 10:44
October 6, 2004
An official from the Chinese Embassy in Cairo said Tuesday the Chinese government is seeking to ease the trade imbalance between China and Egypt through enhanced economic cooperation.

Cui Mingmo, head of the commerce department of the Chinese Embassy, noted at a press conference that the Chinese government sent a group of entrepreneurs to Egypt last month, spending some US$5 million in purchasing Egyptian goods, as part of efforts made by the Chinese side to ease the problem.

China attaches great importance to the bilateral economic relations with Egypt and will help Egypt further reduce its trade deficit with China, he added.

Israel accuses al-Qaida of masterminding Sinai blasts

JERUSALEM, Oct. 8 (Xinhuanet) -- Israel said Friday that the chain of blasts targeting Israeli tourists in Egypt's Red Sea resorts which left some 150 people killed or injured bore the hallmarks of al-Qaida terror network.

Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom told Israel's Army Radio that Egyptian resorts were targeted because "al-Qaida threatens all the countries, including Arab ones which according to it have close relations with Israel or the Western world."

Egypt was the first Arab country to sign a peace treaty with Israel in 1979.

Shalom said the fight against terror was far from being won since "organizations are behind it".

Israeli Deputy Defence Minister Zeev Boim also pointed fingers at al-Qaida network.

"In my opinion, it fits more with attacks by international terror groups like al-Qaida or branches of it," Boim said.

Meanwhile, Israel ruled out the possibility of radical Palestinian militant groups conducting the attacks.

The Palestinains also denied any involvement in the Sinai blasts.

In a quick reaction, Jibril Rajoub, national security advisor to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, said he believed that Palestinian militant groups can never be involved at all in the bombing attacks because they focused their attacks on Israeli military occupation into the territories and not outside.

Earlier this month, al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden's right-hand man al-Zarwahiri specified Egypt as a possible target when he called on young Muslims to attack Israeli and Western interests across the world.

Meanwhile, a previously unknown group calling itself "IslamicUnity Brigades" claimed responsibility for the series of blasts ina statement posted on an Islamic website Friday.

The group said the suicide bombing attacks were in retaliationfor Israel's assassination of Hamas' spiritual leader Sheikh AhmedYassin in March this year.

Accusing Egypt of collaborating with Israel, the group vowed tocontinue fight with infidels until they are flushed out of Islamterritories. Enditem
