How i wish they were caught by the General himself
24 hours in the guard room before summary execution would have been too lenient!
Sometimes you wonder why people are so wicked!

[size=13pt]THE TWO BASTARDTS[/size]

https://cdn.pmnewsnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Cynthias-Killers.jpg
Covering their faces: The two suspected killers of Cynthia, a retired General’s daughter, paraded today in Lagos.

Two murder suspects who were paraded today by the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja, Echezona Nwabufor, 33, and Ezekiel Nnechuwu Olisa Eloka, 23, have narrated how they drugged the daughter of a retired General, Miss Cynthia Akuzogwu Udoka, 25, and strangled her in order to steal her money.

One of the suspects, Eloka, said they killed Cynthia because they thought she had a lot of money in her possession. But after the dastardly act, they did not find a reasonable amount of money on her.

According to the suspects, “we met her on the facebook on our Blackberry. We invited her to come to Lagos to buy goods at cheap prices.

[size=13pt]“When she got to Lagos, we took her to a hotel in Festac. We thought she had a lot of money, but she said she didn’t have any money. We gave her Reflon tablet in her Ribena drink. After this, we slept with her for 12 hours in that hotel. We discovered that the tablet did not work quickly on her.[/size]

“We then attacked her, tied her up and used cellotape to cover her mouth. After that, we beat her to tell us where she kept the money.

“When we didn’t get any money from her, we tied her mouth and strangled her and then we abandoned her in the hotel and fled.”

The suspects and the General’s daughter became friends on Facebook and were exchanging messages and phone calls.

She told them she was coming to Lagos. They met her at Murtala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja from where they ushered her into a hotel in Festac town, Lagos.

Briefing journalists on how policemen were able to arrest the suspects, Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Umar Abubakar Manko, said detectives made use of the close circuit television, CCTV, at the hotel where the crime was committed to identify them.

The late Miss Cynthia Akuzogwu Udoka

The Area Commander, Area ‘E’ Police Command, ACP Okoro added that the suspects who are undergraduates of Nigerian universities were nabbed through the call logs of the telephone conversations they had with the late Cynthia who was a post graduate student of Nasarawa State University.

When the suspected killers strangled Cynthia, they deposited her corpse at the mortuary of Isolo General Hospital in Lagos.

ACP Okoro stated that many ATM cards, about 23 SIM cards, different identity cards were recovered from the suspects.

Police sources said the two suspects will soon be arraigned in court to answer a charge of murder.

Meanwhile, the late Cynthia’s best friend, Aishatu Ene Ella, has paid a glowing tribute to the deceased.

She said: “In the last few days, I have seen my heart torn, stripped and broken into pieces, first by the disappearance and death of my dearest friend and secondly by the wickedness exhibited by Nigerians passing judgement on someone they never knew or met.”

[size=13pt]ANOTHER SOURCE:[/size]

https://saharareporters.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/news-page-images-480-wide/page_images/news/2012/suspects_generaldaughter.jpg

The police in Lagos yesterday paraded suspects who killed Cynthia Ozokogu age 24 whose body was traced to a morgue in the metropolis at the weeked. Cynthia is the last child and only daughter of Major Gen. Ozokogu (rtd). She was killed on July 22 in an hotel in FESTAC. There were a lot of posers at the parade gound in Ikeja yesterday. The suspects Okume and Ezeke (surnames withheld by us) one of them a university student, were driven there in a sleek car.

The suspects, who met their victim, Cynthia on Facebook, were alleged to have sexually molested the victim, tied and chained her before she was finally murdered. The Commissioner of Police, Umar Manko, told newsmen that Ezeke was arrested in Anambra State while his colleague, a 100 level Accounting student of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), Okume was nabbed in FESTAC. He stated that detectives from Area E Command, FESTAC got a lead into the case when they got the suspects’ pictures in a footage from a Close Circuit Camera TV (CCTV) that was installed in the hotel.. “We discovered that two young men came to the hotel and went to the room and after sometime came out with a package.

They were arrested and have confessed that they killed the lady,” he added. Facts about the case Manko said that on July 22 this year, in FESTAC, the police found a lady dead in her hotel room tied and chained. He stated the police discovered that “somebody called demanding that the body of the bastard be removed.” Manka said when the body was found, the police had no details about the identity of the deceased.

‘From the yellow card that was found’ we got her passport number from the internet and the Nigerian Immigration Service was able to link her up and was able to establish her actual identity’, he said. Manko noted that the suspects told the police that they started with the deceased on the internet which they were able to establish that she is a businesswoman who comes to. Lagos to buy and goes to Abuja to sell and concluded that she must have money. He said that one of the suspects gave her a flight ticket and an accommodation in the hotel.

[size=13pt]The suspects, Manko said, drugged the drink, which they gave to the deceased. The drug, he explained, got the deceased knocked off and the suspects settled down for what they were there for, but that unfortunately, she died in the process. “She struggled before she collapsed and got her killed’, he added.” Suspects’ confessional statement The suspects confessed to journalists that they actually met the victim on Facebook and that their intention was to dispossess Cynthia of her belongings and did not intend to kill her. Okume said that they drugged the deceased with medicine, which they injected in three of the drink they gave to the deceased.[/size]

[size=13pt]He denied having sexual intercourse with her, adding that the condom that was found in her hotel room was not used by them. He explained that they only used a se.xual toy (vibr.ator) which they found on the deceased. Okume, the 100 level Accounting student admitted that the deceased was their fourth victim.[/size] ‘We always meet with our victims in different hotels in FESTAC,” he added. He, however, denied killing the three other victims and that the death of the only daughter of the retired General was quite unfortunate. Posers The suspects who were smartly dressed were brought to the command headquarters Ikeja in a sleek car.

Recall that prior to the discovery of her body in the morgue last Saturday, Cynthia had been declared missing by her family since July 22 after she had left her base in Nasarawa State to come to Lagos for shopping. Attempts by her relations and concerned friends to ascertain her whereabouts were not successful prompting them to circulate messages on the social media, but no one could give vital information about her. Prior to the discovery of the body, her family had no inkling she was dead. Rather, she was listed as a missing person.

According to reports, the deceased who was running a postgraduate program in Public Administration at the Nasarawa State University, was lured into Lagos by a group of men whose stock in trade is to deceive young girls and kill them after dispossessing them of their belongings. There was a twist in the case when the body was found in a mortuary in Lagos and indications pointed to the fact that the deceased was killed in the hotel she lodged in before she was taken to the mortuary.

According to sources, the deceased was said to have been robbed and killed in the hotel by the same people she was supposed to do business with. At the hotel, the duo who went to pick her at the airport, having allegedly connived with a staff of the hotel and a pharmacist who produced the substance used to drug her, immediately executed their plan.

The deceased was tied up, robbed of all the money she brought for her business and strangled her to death. The suspects immediately dispossessed her of her phones, her identity card and other things that could be used to identify her.

[size=13pt]TO ALL THOSE PICKING HOLES IN THE STORY,
HERE IS STILL ANOTHER SOURCE:[/size]

https://cdn.punchng.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/The-suspects1.jpg

The suspects who allegedly killed Cytnhia Osokogu, daughter of Maj.-Gen. Frank Osokogu (retd.), on July 22, 2012, have admitted that they drugged and beat the 24-year-old girl before she died.

The suspects – Nwabuzo Okumo and Odera Ezekiel – described the incident as a mistake. They claimed that they only wanted to rob her and flee from the hotel before things went awry.

Okumo, a 300-level Accounting student of the University of Lagos, said he met the deceased on BlackBerry Messenger and established a relationship with her before inviting her to Lagos.

He said, “We met through a group on BlackBerry Messenger. We had formed a kind of friendship online.

[size=13pt]“When she told me that she was coming to Lagos to buy some goods for her boutique in Abuja, I invited her to Casmillo Hotel, Amuwo Odofin, where an incident led to her death. It was not planned that way. It was a big mistake.

“She arrived in Lagos from Abuja on Sunday, July 21 and I took her to the hotel. I gave her a pack of Ribena juice, which had been injected with a drug I use on women that makes them dizzy, weak and wipes their memory afterwards. I have used the drugs on four girls but it did not kill them.

“I stayed in the room with her for about 12 hours. We talked; I used a vib.rator (se.x toy) on her. I noticed that she did not drink all the juice and so the drug was not as effective as expected.[/size]

“I had no choice than to engage her in a struggle. I had to tie her so that she would not be able to follow me after robbing her.”

However, Ezekiel, a 400-level student of Accounting at the Anambra State University, said he was called by Okumo to help him tie up the girl. He said it was when Cynthia was struggling with them that they beat her up before chaining her.

[size=13pt]He said he gave Okumo two packs of Ribena juice that were injected with 10 tablets of Refinol.[/size]

He said, “I didn’t know the victim. The morning it happened, he (Okumo), said I should come and help him bind the girl because he wanted to steal her belongings. In the process of binding her, she was struggling so we had to beat her up and it was in the process that she passed out. We used our hands in beating her; we did not use any weapon.

“She was still breathing as at the time I left the hotel.”

While parading the suspects, the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, Umar Manko, said the suspects specialise in luring young ladies and robbing them. He added that it was unclear if the boys killed their previous victims or not.

“The young lady was found dead and chained in a room in the hotel. Someone called the hotel reception and said, ‘Go and get the dead body of a bastard from your room’. When the lady was found, her identity could not be ascertained,” he said.

It was learnt that a yellow card belonging to the victim was found in the hotel room. From the card, he said the police called immigration authorities and got the passport number and details of the victim.

Manko said, “Her identity was not known but from the telephone number used in calling the hotel, we started our investigations until we got her passport number through the Immigration Service and were able to establish her identity.

“Through CCTV footage, we discovered that two young men entered into her room. We were able to trace the suspects through the phone number that called the hotel.”

Our correspondent learnt that the police initially arrested Ezekiel’s girlfriend. She aided them in apprehending Ezekiel who had run to Anambra State.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Ezekiel then led the police to Okumo in FESTAC.

Manko said, “The boys are cousins and both are from Anambra State. We’ve been told that this is not their first time but we’ve not been able to able to establish if they always kill their victims. It’s a very long investigation and it’s still ongoing.

“The case is a lesson to people using social networks to be very careful. The suspects will be charged to court for murder.”

The CP however added that no employee of the hotel was involved in the crime.

[size=13pt]The items recovered from the suspects are seven driving licences (three belonging to Ezekiel, four belonging to Okumo with different names); the deceased’s belongings, including her shoes(found in Okumo’s house); 17 mobile phones, two Diamond Bank rubber stamps, two syringes, a pack of Ribena, 22 SIM cards, a chain, 12 debit and credit cards.[/size]

Is the other man in suit, Prophet Abiara?

Katsumoto!
I hereby pronounce you - The Generalissimo of Nairaland
It has really been awesome following the back and forth from page 1,
Your matured way of presenting information without too much recourse to insult is highly commendable.
Your ease of compressing voluminous Nigerian history into clear and simple statements without loosing the fact is wow!
Tuale!
You are too much!
If our path is ever to cross!
I owe you a giant bowl of isi ewu!
I'm signing out for tonight!
Peace and Love to all Nigerians, no matter the tribe, caste or religion!

I no fit shout o!
Op, you made the coke i was drinking come out of my nose
Thank God for ur life, u for become statistics in the fight against boko haram!
I can see the headline of tomorrow's dailies already - "The spokesman of B.H was shot to death while preparing the propaganda video for upload!"

dayokanu: No wonder Adekunle made mincemeat of these Igbo catapult weilding soldiers

Lol
Dayo! na wa for u o

cyril83: if those people were not boko haram members,they wudnt have opened fire on jtf team...

How are we sure the soldier that died or the one that was wounded was not as a result of friendly fire?
We all know our security operatives are trigger happy.

Katsumoto: The problem with some Igbo sons is that they believe they are smarter than others. Zik reneged on several agreements with Awo pre-independence, Zik was part of the government that jailed Awo, yet Awo should have supported Biafra.

It is important to contextualize Awo’s actions before and during the Civil war. To do so accurately, one must scrutinize the actions of all parties pre-Independence, post-Independence, and pre-Civil war.

In 1957, the Governor-General, Sir James Robertson, gave the three regions the choice of self-autonomy and independence but it had to be a majority decision. Awo voted for independence for the Western Region, Ahmadu Bello said the North wasn't ready for self-governance and would prefer to remain under British rule. Zik voted to put off Independence for the Eastern region, preferring to wait for the North to be ready. Zik had the choice of a country for the Eastern region but he wanted Nigeria at all cost. Similarly, at the same constitutional conference in London, Awo wanted a secession clause inserted into the constitution but Zik and Bello refused. Guess who would later want secession.

Now fast forward to the general election in 1959. The North won the most seats in the house. Awo offered to join a coalition with Zik, with Zik as Prime Minister (the PM had the real power) but Zik preferred to form a coalition with the North and accepted a redundant position as Governor-General with no real powers.
When Zik aligned with the North in 1959, guess who got most of the ministerial and administrative positions allocated to the South? Yes, you guessed it, the Igbos. The Yorubas and other Groups were left on the sidelines until Akintola broke away from the AG with the help of who? Zik and Okpara who thought that Akintola would defect to their party but played a fast one by preferring to form his own party and aligning with the North. Now when the situation of the Igbo changed with Akintola joining Balewa's government with positions held by Igbo now going to Akintola's supporters, what do you think happened next? Coup by Igbo officers.

In 1962, there were problems in the Western Region between Awo and Akintola who both belonged to the Action Group. Akintola was sacked but due to actions of NCNC (Zik's Party) members, the removal of Akintola wasn't effected. Balewa and Zik imposed a state of emergency on the West because of chair throwing in the Western House yet there were no states of emergency in the North and East for far more violent actions on the streets there (the TIV crisis and the Okrika riots). Awo was subsequently jailed on trumped up charges.

Now after the imprisonment of Awo, Zik thought that his party NCNC would take control of the Western region but Akintola decided to form his own party (NNDP) rather than join the NCNC. In the elections of December 1964, NNDP took control of the Western region. The NCNC cried that elections were rigged. According to Fazil Ope-Agbe (Akintola's right hand man), the ensuing mayhem in the West was sponsored by Okpara and Zik. With the AG in retreat, NCNC calculated that if Akintola's party fell apart, the NCNC would be in a position to pick the pieces. This is not far-fetched considering Zik's antecedents in the West.

With Akintola holding firm, NCNC didn't gain the advantage it sought. One year later, a group of officers who were predominantly Igbo, executed a coup that eliminated leading politicians and officers from the North and West. Despite the murder of these Northern and Western leaders, the Northerners, who were senior partners in the coalition with the East, picked another leader, Dipcharima, to replace Balewa. The East, even though it was the junior partner, had selected Madiwe. When the North refused to budge to this proposal, Nwafor Orizu, chose to handover to Aguiyi-Ironsi another Igbo man and in the process, Nigeria’s nascent democracy was truncated.
Awo was imprisoned on trumped up charges by the Balewa/Zik government and thrown in prison. Awo wrote to Ironsi in March 1966 requesting to be released from prison but was obviously ignored. Awo would later be released from prison by Gowon and driven home in Murtala Mohamed’s car. Despite his time in prison and his political difficulties with Zik/okpara, Awo would assume the role of a statesman and try to find a solution to the impasse between the North and the East. That speech by Awo to the Western regional house was a very noble one. Awo would also travel to Enugu to advise Ojukwu against armed conflict.

So putting all these into consideration, would any sane person expect Awo to simply just follow the East in a secession bid? Awo's loyalty was to his people. He did what he felt was best for his people concerning the circumstances. Despite all that, Awo advised Ojukwu not to go to war. When Awo offered to organise a meeting with Northern officers, Ojukwu replied, 'On the specific question of whether there is a possibility of contract with the North, the answer is at the battle field.'

Other than trying to play the role of an elder statesman and finding a solution to the problem, Awo owed no loyalty to the East. To betray the East, he would have had to have come to an agreement with the leaders in the East. Other than this speech which the OP and other Biafrans erroneously rely (due to a bad educational system), what other reasons exist to suggest a betrayal? NADA

Kats!
You too much o
Where you dey dig all these info out of, naa

I must confess, this thread is particularly enlightening
To the coherent posters from both sides, good job!

So who should we believe?

https://saharareporters.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/news-page-images-480-wide/page_images/news/2012/Boko-Haram-shekau_0.jpg

Following claims by the Joint Task Force in Maiduguri that it killed 20 members of the Jama’atu Allus Sunnah Lilda wati Wal Jihad, aka Boko Haram at the weekend, the group said today those killed were innocent people, not its members.

Through its spokesperson, Abul Qaqa, Boko Haram described the JTF claim as a ruse and serial lies, and insisted that the combined squad, which comprises soldiers as well as secret police and conventional police killed innocent people.

Qaqa, who spoke in Hausa, said, “The JTF only brutally killed innocent poor people. There is no way our sect members up to 20 will gather in such environment and hold a council sitting. It is a lie and blatant lie. We are committed and have vowed until a Muslim State is formed in Nigeria and not going back on this.”

Col. Victor Ebhaleme, the Field Operations Officer of JTF in Borno State, told newsmen yesterday that the Saturday night shootout followed an intelligence report that some suspected Boko Haram terrorists were having a meeting at a certain location in the metropolis.

He did not say how the tip was confirmed, but stated that when the JTF approached the area, the terrorists “immediately opened fire on the team.

Twenty of the suspects and one soldier were reportedly killed.

No wonder Nigeria is going down hill
Too many bad advisers!
Dame Patience,
PDP,
And this one too!
Who is this Eva again?

No one is denying the invincibility of Israel in the middle east as at now!
You guys should read my previous post before flaying me!

[quote author=na2day!]Yes, as at now, no country in the middle easst can stand the firepower of Israel (I'm not even talking about their Nuclear Weapons)[/quote]Of course, Israel is the Big kid with the big stick on the block!

davidylan: you're just a bloviating nuisance. By your claims then Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Georgia and portions of Russia should be considered part of the middle east right?
Again i ask... if Turkey is a middle east nation then why does it have an EU application pending for the last 5 yrs?

Ode.

I've always been warned never to argue with a cret.in,
I think i must capitulate now so that people will not label us with the same hue.
Finally!

In the west, Turkey borders Greece and Bulgaria, and the touristy part of Istanbul is also in the 3% of the country that is officially in Europe. But of course that means that 97% of the country is in Asia, and more specifically, in the [size=13pt]Middle East[/size]. The eastern edge of Turkey borders Iraq, Iran, and Syria, and what’s in between is heavily influenced by those cultures, without most of the complications that go along with that troubled region.

http://www.priceoftravel.com/2598/9-reasons-budget-travelers-should-head-to-turkey-soon/
Of course Turkey wants to be part of EU because of the perks involved, every fool knows that!
Even Nigeria too will demand for that if 3% of her landmass is in Europe!

davidylan: Really? Daft again. we are talking specifically about your false claim that the US dashed Turkey nuclear weapons. turkey is a south east European country [size=13pt]by the way and not a part of the middle east you know[/size]? I already know that nuclear weapons are for detterence... that is why the US has nuclear weapons in several NATO countries of which Turkey, Germany, Netherlands and Luxemburg are a part.

You're just struggling too hard to "win" an internet argument. what a disgraceful shame. Its ok to admit that you goofed and you really dont know half what you are saying. Calling me a cretin wont change that.

If turkey is a middle east country then why is it applying to be a part of the EU? Ode calling his superiors cretins.

Since you don't have points again and you are now clutching at straws, i've no choice again but to pity you,
Having said that though, the majority of Turkey (97%) is in the Middle East. Only 3% of Turkey is located in Europe.
You can check again on wikipedia:
Traditional definition of the Middle East
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_East
Is Turkey not there?
You, sir, are an id.iot!

davidylan: Daft. the problem with empty barrels like you is that internet jingoism is your only claim to fame. You said the US "dashed" turkey nuclear weapons. Even your own article makes nonsense of that clear case of misinformed stup[i]i[/i]dity. Of course bellicose id[i]io[/i]ts like you try to hide your own inadequacy with personal attacks. Not a surprise.

Again read the link i gave you... by your own claims then the US has also "dashed" Germany, Belgium, Luxemburg and the Netherlands nuclear weapons? Of course those weapons are also fitted to be carried by turkish air force jets as part of being a NATO ally. Turkey cannot unilaterally choose to use those bombs on Kurdistan for example as they would if they owned it... you know under the terms of "dash" no?

you know u really are a dum.bass, we are talking about middle east countries that have a bone to grind with Israel and u are mentioning European countries ?
For your info, nuclear weapons are not meant to be used to suppress internal insurrection (like attacking PKK) but as a means of deterrence, meaning if you bomb me, i will do worse!
Now you have middle east country(Turkey) who was fitted with these weapons arguing that it should not be taken away because its part of Her own security and NATO agreed, and here you are saying its not useful to them, as i've told you before go carryam, cretin!

davidylan: Makes zero sense. if it was "dashed" then why is the US exercising authority on whether to remove those weapons or not in the same article you quote? Or do you need me to define "dash" for you? If you dont know something just say so... too tired of ridiculous fellows just bleating around with half-baked misinformation.

I'm also tired of doing back and forth with you mumu on an issue that is has apparent as the day, the weapon as at now is on Turkish soil fitted for Turkish air force, even NATO has agreed not to remove it and Turkey is using it as part of her security strategy, and here you are rambling like a cretin, ehn go and take from them naa!
mtshew!

profola2be: my brother,you got it wrong.
Israel hasnt been armed by USA.
may i also inform you that,Israel doesnt need the backing of USA to win its war against any country,even USA itself.

Ok o!
Then why is Israel seeking a green light from US to attack Iran nuclear facilities,
So Israel can even defeat US?
Ok O!

davidylan: I[i]di[/i]ot. Read your own quote.

Fifty of these bombs are reportedly PDF assigned for delivery by U.S. pilots, and forty are assigned for delivery by the Turkish Air Force.
Then there is the issue of Tehran's nuclear program, [size=14pt]which seriously complicates any discussion of the United States removing its tactical nuclear weapons from Turkey[/size]. An Iranian nuclear capability could spark an arms race in the Middle East and bring about a "proliferation cascade," which could cause Turkey to reconsider its nuclear options--[size=14pt]especially if the United States pulls its nuclear weapons from Incirlik.[/size] When asked directly about its response to an Iranian nuclear weapon, a high-ranking Foreign Ministry official said that Turkey would immediately arm itself with a bomb. This isn't Ankara's official policy, but it seems to indicate a general feeling among its leaders. Whether Turkey is primarily concerned about security or prestige, the bottom line is that it would not sit idly by as Iran established a regional hegemony.

Those weapons are US weapons and can be withdrawn unilaterally by the US government... turkey is only authorized to use them under US/NATO command. turkey is contemplating building its own nuclear bomb ONLY IF Iran succeeds in getting a weapon which is why the US military has refused to remove its nuclear bombs from turkish soil.

Mumu! you don dey gradually derail this thread o!
According to the article, Turkey is vehemently against its removal and consider it part of her own security and that's why its still there till now and NATO had to oblige, is that not dash?

davidylan: Even that is false. Read your own link... those weapons are US nuclear weapons stored on Turkish soil since Turkey is a NATO ally. Dont say what you dont know next time.

I believe you can read English,

Fifty of these bombs are reportedly PDF assigned for delivery by U.S. pilots, and forty are assigned for delivery by the [size=14pt]Turkish Air Force[/size].

ebamma: israel has been manufacturing it own weapons since 1933 please check the link belowen.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Military_Industries

No doubt!
They do alittle bit of weapon cooking too,
But your post said Israel don't buy weapons from the Americans.

davidylan: SMH. And you know that USA "dashed" Egypt nuclear weapons how? Better you take your own advice.

I mean Turkey!
I've corrected my post

For more than 40 years, Turkey has been a quiet custodian of U.S. tactical nuclear weapons.

http://thebulletin.org/web-edition/features/the-status-of-us-nuclear-weapons-turkey

ebamma: in 1948 iraq,jordan,syria and egypt fought against israel and lost,.

Yes, as at now, no country in the middle easst can stand the firepower of Israel (I'm not even talking about their Nuclear Weapons)
Turkey too have nuclear weapons that US dash them

israel doesn't buy any weapons from usa,the manufacture their own weapons,the egyptians can never declare war on israel because the know the will lose

Where did you get your information from?
Don't ever say again what you don't know, capisce?
"Israel is the largest total recipient of direct economic and military assistance from the United States since World War II, and it was the largest annual recipient from 1976 to 2003. During the Obama administration these relations reached new levels, with the two countries prepared to function in wartime as joint task forces."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel%E2%80%93United_States_military_relations

Billyonaire: That is a very neat political move. As soon as he resigns, next phase should be massive retirement of the rank and file of the military.

I still think Morsi has just shot himself in the leg!
Tantawi cannot be making mouth without the support of the US, they will rather destabilize Egypt again than allowing anything to threaten Israel.

ebamma: israel has never and will never be afraid of egypt,the first war egypt fought with israel,the lost,israel has got more advanced weapons than egypt and in case of a war israel will beat egypt hands down

War is not as easy as you think, we are not talking about weapons now,
Are you aware the same America that is arming Israel with advanced weapons is also arming Egypt?
Sane Governments do their best to support neighbors that will be friendly to them and go out of their ways to undermine those who won't.
If Morsi have his way, Israel will become a giant Bull's eye pinned to the wall.

Lordave: elucidate please.

My brother, this situation is going to give even the American secretary of state(hillary) sleepless night tonight!
We all know, the Islamic brotherhood are chameleons (after the revolution, they promised not field a presidential candidate, but when the coast was clear, they immediately fielded Morsi).
They have links with many Islamic hardliners like Hamas, Hez et al in the middle east.
Imagine the scenario where they control the army?
That means -
Sinai is no longer safe (It hasn't been safe anyway since the revolution)
Hamas will now have official pass to bring in their weapons instead of tunneling like rats
The Sinai will immediately become a staging port for terrorist attack into Israel.

Israel will be very very uncomfortable now!

This Islamic brotherhood don dey get liver o!
Is there going to be a coup or Tantawi will bow to the will of the people?

[size=13pt]Egypt leader Mursi orders army chief Tantawi to resign[/size]

Relations between Mr Mursi (left) and Field Marshal Tantawi (right) have been tense


Egyptian President Mohammed Mursi has ordered the retirement of the powerful head of the country's armed forces, Field Marshal Mohamad Hussein Tantawi, a presidential spokesman has said.

He also said a constitutional declaration aimed at curbing presidential powers had been cancelled.

Mr Mursi, who was elected in June, is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Relations between the Brotherhood and the military have been tense since the fall of President Hosni Mubarak.

It is not clear whether the president has the power to sack the head of the armed forces, or whether Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi will accept the moves.

The BBC's Yolande Knell in Cairo says the president's intervention is clearly an attempt to take decisive action in his tug of war for control with the armed forces.

Constitutional question

Under an interim constitutional declaration issued before Mr Mursi was sworn in, the president cannot rule on matters related to the military - including appointing its leaders.

The Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (Scaf), which issued the declaration, also dissolved the Egyptian Parliament, which is dominated by the president's Islamist allies.

As head of the Scaf, Field Marshal Tantawi became Egypt's interim ruler after President Mubarak was ousted following mass protests in February last year.

Sunday's presidential announcement also said armed forces chief of staff Sami Annan was retiring.
