Escalation

I previously mentioned that there is a lot of lobbying these days in the Egyptian media against the Shi'its and Iran as part of the hostility erupted between Sunnis and Shi'its.

Well today the escalation reached another level, with the largest distributed state controlled paper "Al-Ahram" quoting on its first page a diplomatic source (anonymous of course) that the abduction and killing of Egypt's first ambassador to Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein some two years ago was actually the work of the Iranian intelligence, who wanted to send a clear message that it will not tolerate any influence for Egypt and any Sunni country for that matter in Iraq.
