    Israel deploys drones over Egyptian border

    TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — A senior Israeli military official says the air force has deployed a special unit of unmanned surveillance aircraft along its long, porous border with Egypt after militants crossed the frontier and killed eight Israelis last month.

    The official says the drones are monitoring both sides of the 150-mile (250-kilometer) border, though the aircraft are flying only in Israeli airspace. In the wake of the attack, Israel also has sent more troops along the border.

    Officials have grown increasingly concerned about the security situation in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula following the ouster of longtime Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in February.

    The official spoke on condition of anonymity under military guidelines.

    Israel, along with the United States, is a world leader in drone technology.

      Israel is our most important friend but immoral obomba plans to betray her this month in the U N. He is not trusted world wide. He gave 100 million to arabs of Gaza and they fired 1,000 rockets into Israel the next day. The one state plan is the only way to prevent WWIII.

        And how many hundred million to the Israelis? a little one-sided, aren't you?

        Friend? I think not. Yesterday they just convicted another dual citizen of stealing our military secrets and selling it to "our" friend. Friends do not steal others property.

        Probably remotely piloted by US Air Force staff. Everyone knows a Jew can't drive, what do they do on Fridays "Oh its ok we are in the military we can kill anyone"

        riiiiight, it has completely nothing to do with the fact that Israel has been attacked from the Egyptian border by terrorists, INCLUDING Egyptian soldiers. or did you forget? do you even read the news? that would be the only logical conclusion i can make based on your "HURR DURR ISREAL IS BLOKING EEJIPT'S INTRISTS DERP" comment.

        you mean the illegal entity of Iran with nukes? you're right, i hope the end of the illegal entity of Iran is near. Iran is a cancer. by the way, "greg," how much does Iran pay you to spread propaganda on the internet? did they promise you 72 virgins? aren't you enjoying your "beardless boy" here on earth though?

      Peace in the middle east is as big a fairy tale as the story of Abraham and his dog.

      مأساة شعب فلسطين هو ان "نظرا" بلادهم من قبل قوة أجنبية إلى شعب آخر (الذين كانوا سنة 1800 هزمت من قبل الرومان) لخلق دولة جديدة. وكانت النتيجة ان أدلى مئات الآلاف من الناس الأبرياء بلا مأوى دائم. مع كل نزاع جديد زادت أعدادهم. وكم يعد العالم على استعداد لتحمل هذا المشهد الوحشي من القسوة؟ فمن الواضح تماما أن اللاجئين لديهم كل الحق في الوطن الذي طردوا منها ، والحرمان من هذا الحق هو جوهر النزاع المستمر. لن الناس في أي مكان في العالم تقبل الجماهير في طرده من بلدهم ، وكيف يمكن لأي شخص أن يطلب من الشعب الفلسطيني لقبول العقاب الذي قد يتسامح مع أي شخص آخر؟ إن التوصل إلى تسوية دائمة فقط للاجئين في وطنهم هو عنصر أساسي في أي تسوية حقيقية في الشرق الأوسط. كثيرا ما يقال لنا أننا يجب أن نتعاطف مع الإسراء

      It is obvious that Native's gods did nothing for him. They didn't even give him a leg to stand on.

      Just all Americans are welcomed to come to America, (no matter where they are born) All Jews are welcome to come to Israel.
