Islamist terrorists strike at Egyptian military — 6 Comments

  1. “a series of coordinated Islamist terrorist attacks today on the Egyptian military in the Sinai,”

    Terrorists attack civilians and infrastructure to spread terror and intimidate people and governments into backing down from opposing them. (IE, the Charlie Hebdo massacres and attacks on Spanish trains, etc.)
    These were battles in a war.

  2. AesopFan:

    Would you refuse to classify the attack on the US Cole, or at Ft. Hood, or the Marine barracks, as terrorist attacks?

    The attackers in Egypt were not members of an army (as were Japanese kamikazes), they were Islamic terror groups. Yes, some of these Egyptian attacks were more conventional in nature, but many of them were terrorist attacks (suicide attacks), albeit on the military:

    The Islamic State affiliate that calls itself Sinai Province claimed its fighters targeted 15 army and police positions and staged three suicide bombings, two that targeted checkpoints and one that hit an officers’ club in the nearby city of el-Arish.

  4. What Al-Sisi should do is reduce taxes, have a “regulation holiday”, and make it very easy to start a business.

    Getting the peaceful – private economy restarted, even at the cost of gov’t debt, is important.
    Note – this does NOT mean gov’t funding new crony boondoggles. A reduction, if not an even better freeze, on gov’t expenditures should go along with lower taxes.

    Gov’t based socialism means lots of win-lose transactions; peaceful market transactions means only win-win transactions (or the freedom to NOT transact).
