Egypt, Hamas, Israel cooperate as Sinai becomes more volatile

Egypt's Sinai Peninsula region, where the borders of Gaza, Israel and Egypt all converge, is becoming an increasing threat to Egypt, because of Bedouin unrest and jihadist terrorism. Tensions have been high in the Sinai since six Egyptian policemen and a soldier were kidnapped ten days ago by a Bedouin tribe allied with al-Qaeda linked terrorists. The hostages were finally released on Wednesday, but there's no guarantee that there won't be more kidnappings, and Morsi has announced that there will be a new military operation in the Sinai to arrest the kidnappers.
