Horror!… Top Hamas militants escaped an Egyptian prison this weekend along with several Muslim Brotherhood members.
Egyptian security forces beefed up their presence along the border with the Gaza Strip on Sunday in a bid to stop Hamas operatives from crossing between the two countries… But they were too late.
The Hamas members are already back in Gaza!
AFP reported:
Two out of eight Hamas prisoners who broke out of a Cairo prison as a wave of anti-government protests swept Egypt arrived back in Gaza on Sunday, an official source said.
A senior official in the Hamas government confirmed all eight were on their way back to Gaza, with the report also confirmed by one of the escapees.
By Sunday morning, at least two of the prisoners who had been held in Abu Zaabal prison, northeast of Cairo, had made it back to Gaza, entering the strip through the tunnels which run under the border, a Palestinian official said on condition of anonymity.
They made their escape when thousands broke free from jails across Egypt as officials struggled to control the wave of chaos sparked by nationwide riots demanding the end of the regime of President Hosni Mubarak.
Among those who arrived back in Gaza on Sunday was Mohamed al-Shaer, a big name in the cross-border smuggling enterprise, who was arrested in Egypt six months ago after completing the haj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia.
Shaer entered Gaza through the tunnels, witnesses said.
Several hours later, a second prisoner, Hassan Wishah also made his way through the tunnels to El Bourej camp in central Gaza. He had served three years of a 10-year sentence at the Cairo jail for unspecified security offences.
“All the Palestinian prisoners escaped from Abu Zaabal,” Wishah told AFP.

Having Mohammed El Baradei running Egypt is like having Mohammed Atta’s father run Egypt. Both men are upper middle class Cairo lawyers of the Muslim Brotherhood . El Baradei will enable and deny terrorism just as Mohammed Atta el Amir Awad deNILEd his own son was a terrorist butcher .

There will be parties galore in Gaza and Dearborn, MI tomorrow, for sure.
Maybe even in the White House.

“Maybe even in the White House.”
….that kinda goes without saying for this bunch, though tomorrow’s daily party will be “extra especial”, just for this news.
Somewhat Reasonable Voice commented:
Doubt they escaped, more likely were sprung.

“Our conscience needs to be pricked”
French President, Nicolas Sarkozy, regarding freedom for Egypt.
Wow, spoken by a real prick.
Hey Nic, all we have to do is look across the pond and watch what socialism and the invasion of the Muslim Brotherhood did to France! (do you have a conscience?)
BurmaShave commented:
What are the odds that a prison guard or two escaped to Gaza as well?
Rose commented:
The worst from the pits of Hell itself are on the loose.
And what do they find to do with themselves?
Line up to fulfill the very Biblical Prophecies for Israel that they shriek to the world are untrue.
Amazing – knowing the prophecies they scorn, they rush to fulfill them, themselves.
Ezekial 38 and 39, and Book of Obadiah (the entire page), and more!
Sapheaded corrupt weasels.
