~ Israeli Security Firm Protecting Egypt's Suez Canal ~
The Egyptian military reaches out to its historical enemy: Israel, and entrusts the security of its Suez Canal to Seagull Maritime Securities, This was a catastrophic move by Gen. Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi. Seagull Maritime Securities loyalty will be to Israel and not it's client, Egypt. As long as it's allowed to protect the Suez Canal, it will be extremely easy for it to collect intelligence on the canal and Egyptian military units near the canal. If Egypt chooses to challenge Israel's dictates at any point in time, Seagull Maritime Securities can always employ false flag operations to disable the canals maritime traffic, and this will cripple Egypt's economy, since the Suez Canal is the primary and stable source of the nations national revenue. If war breaks out in the future between Egypt and Israel, Seagull Maritime Securities can always sabotage the canal and blame it on Egypt, and since the canal is a global strategic waterway, it can be internationalized and placed under international supervision, therefore, reversing the nationalization of the canal by Gamal Abdel Nasser. In the event of a war, Seagull Maritime Securities can employ its Special Operations Units to conduct sabotage operations that would prevent the Egyptian Army from deploying to the Sinai Peninsula, and thus severing the Sinai from Egypt and this will permit Israel to easily occupy the Sinai once again. Clearly the Egyptian military can't protect the nation or it's people. It can't subdue an infant and amateurish insurgency in the Sinai. It can't subdue peaceful civilian protests that are waged against the military coup that removed and is holding hostage Egypt's first and only democratically elected President, Mohamed Morsi. If a war was to break out today between Egypt and Israel, the Egyptian army would be easily and quickly dispatched by the IDF. Even if the Egyptian Army was to invade Gaza and fight Hamas, it would suffer heavy loses and would be unable to win. The current Egyptian Army is no more than a glorified police force and cannot go head-to-head with an external conventional military, and that's the brutal truth!
