CAIRO — Egypt’s Islamist-dominated parliament unanimously voted on Monday in support of expelling Israel’s ambassador in Cairo and halting gas exports to the Jewish state.
The motion is largely symbolic, because only the ruling military council can make such decisions, and it is not likely to impact Egypt’s relations with Israel. But it signals the seismic change in Egypt after the ouster of longtime leader and Israel ally Hosni Mubarak a year ago in a popular uprising that ended his 29 years in power.

My Comment: With Egypt's Presidential elections just around the corner, I predict every candidate will try to maneuver themselves to be the "most" anti-Israel candidate. Expect the rhetoric and actions to get worse before it gets 'better'.

So you support Al-Quaeda terrorists and mercs trained and employed by western intelligence in their terror campaign of blowing up civilian buildings and public places and their armed gangs killing civilians in order to blame the Assad regime which is only defending the nation against western-armed terrorists who want to divide the country, part of the long-drawn Western NATO plan (according to General Wesley Clark) to divide the entire Middle east to tiny insignificant client-states in order to control them.
And you claim to be a "Russian". It is America-NATO that are a disgrace. And people like you are the disgrace of Russia. I cheer for Russia giving arms to Assad since it is obvious that the only side that doesn't want peace here is the Western one.
