    Egypt to Indict Nasrallah

    Hizbullah terrorist chief Hassan Nasrallah is likely to be indicted by Cairo for sending terrorists to operate on Egyptian soil, according to an official Egyptian source quoted Sunday by the Egyptian daily newspaper al-Ahram. The news follows a speech delivered by Nasrallah on Friday confirming that a member of his terrorist organization was involved in smuggling weapons into Gaza through Egypt.

    "Nasrallah's declaration and his admission that he had guided the Hizbullah cell in Egypt puts him in the circle of defendants, due to the fact that he was the inciter and the man responsible for funding the cell. Nasrallah also admitted that he has agents cooperating with Hizbullah," said the source, who added that Nasrallah would be charged as an accessory. The charge would be based on Hizbullah terrorists infiltrating Egyptian soil, sent by Nasrallah, which is a violation of Egyptian law.
