You do make a good point, why fight when you can strangle your enemy economically? especially easy given the state of the Egyptian economy.
Exactly, you would need US to sanction Egypt. Otherwise, Egyptians would steamroll your army in a direct war.
But of course it shows just how small minded you are to link to a 12 year old story about a terrorist attack. How pathetic do you have to be to dine on those small incidents compared to Israel subjugating you and humiliating you for 75 years?
Lol, terrorist what? 12 guys went out of Gaza into Egypt and into Israel and took out 8 terrorists. Your terrorist army was using human shields and put 'civilians' in a military bus in a militarized zone.
Look what one of our guys did to your diaper army. He picked up a ancient battle rifle with no previous combat experience and wiped out 10 of your soldiers:
The
Wadi al-Haramiya sniper attack was a Palestinian
sniper attack against Israeli soldiers and civilians on March 3, 2002. A lone Palestinian sniper, 22-year-old Tha'ir Kayid Hammad (
Arabic: ثائر كايد حمّاد), a member of
al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades from the village of
Silwad carried out the attack. He had acquired an old
World War II-era
M1 Garand rifle and 30 rounds of ammunition and had done target practice in the valleys around Silwad. Hammad managed to kill seven Israeli soldiers and three civilians before his rifle exploded while firing his 25th shot, forcing him to give up and escape.

Your diaper army likes to censor this stuff and people may have forgotten, but your diaper army is nothing without the US and EU. Just a couple months ago a Egyptian soldier was laser beaming your troops with an ancient AK47. From far distances. And you think you can beat Egypt in a real war?
And the Americans calling up Israel begging them not to take Cairo and threatening them with sanctions if they do. Israel could have steamrolled Egypt and that was when the Egyptians had modern Soviet weapons.
What do you think is going to happen in the next few years as Israel becomes an AI powerhouse and integrates that into its military? not to mention AI-driven laser weapons.
Yeah no , US rearmed you and provided you intelligence to capture parts of Sinai. Which is mostly empty desert land. If you went into Cairo your people would cease to exist.
Dummy:
On October 6, 1973, Egypt and Syria launched a coordinated surprise attack on Israeli forces in the Sinai and the Golan Heights. Israel ultimately repelled the attack and regained lost ground,
but only after the United States made the decision to supply the Israeli military. This war ultimately compelled the Nixon administration to step up its efforts to settle the decades old dispute.
In response to Israeli losses and encouraged by Soviet support of Egypt and Syria,
the United States, after much deliberation, decided to intervene on behalf of Israel. The United States offered Israel a full-scale airlift of military equipment on October 10. This U.S. assistance served to replenish Israeli forces and Israel launched an offensive that retook most of it territorial losses and even gained some ground against both the Egyptians and Syrians. Arab members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries responded to the U.S. airlift by organizing an oil embargo against the United States.
