Egypt arrests 9 militants linked to Sinai attacks

Good.

Officials said earlier that along with the offensive, Egypt is going after an elaborate network of underground tunnels used to smuggle weapons, militants and goods between Sinai and Gaza, the Palestinian enclave under a longtime Israeli-Egyptian blockade. Al-Ahram reported that 150 tunnels have been destroyed.

Good.

Residents in the area said the tunnels targeted were not the most active ones.

Hopefully they will destroy these next.

Speaking to residents in Sinai, Morsi vowed that the Bedouin, who have long been neglected and eyed with suspicion by the government, would be given full rights.

Very good. I am very happy to see how President Morsi is using his office. Hopefully this is the start of a more peaceful Middle East. President Morsi, you certainly have my respect.
