Israeli and Egyptian Relations - More Than Meets the Eye

In this video from Stratfor, analyst Reva Bhalla provides an interesting take into the recent disturbing pronouncement by the Egyptian government that it does not need Israeli approval to patrol the Sinai. While this maybe strong words, Stratfor explains that this could actually be a signal of increased cooperation between the two countries.
