Where is all the crazed media coverage?

Where are all the Muslims yelling and screaming in the streets of London and Paris about the poor treatment of the Palestinians...by Egypt?Egypt is stealing land from the Palestinians, blowing up thousands of homes and the world is quiet.

Do you agree with what Egypt is doing?

The silence is deafening.

    Stealing land would be if Egypt was annexing other people's land and/or creating settlements in Palestinian land and Egyptians were coming in hordes to settle there. Egypt has fought blood and sweat for the Palestinians. No other nation has fought for them as much as the Egyptians. People remember that and have a soft spot for the country. You can't compare the two.

    Well, the media only cares about things that sell. Innocent people murdered that no one ever heard of? No money in it for them so silence. But someone criticizing a politician like Obama? Makes national news because it sells.

    I did read about it but this is something better to be explained by a true Egyptian that knows the story inside out. It's a sad news too of course.. :)

    western governments aren't allies with egypt (in the way it is with israel). Egypt doesn't have lobbies in western governments. Egypt doesn't press for england and france to send their soldiers to die for unjust imperialist goals of israel.

    It is no secret that it is Egypts right to protect it self from Hamas traveling in either direction along its border with war supplies. Even with all their internal problems they are finding the resolve and resources to do the honorable thing.

    1) I'm pretty sure Rafah is an Egyptian city in North Sinai - which is in Egypt, not in Palestinian land.

    Please get your geography right.

    2) If you think Egypt doesn't get enough flack from Palestinians and others, then you must have been under a rock for the past few years.
