Egypt fed up with Hamas refusal to take Gaza deal, pushing them to accept, Arab diplomat tells ToI.

1. I'm calling BS on this

report by the "Arab diplomat". A new set of maps is issued and supposedly within a matter of a couple of days the Egyptians are supposedly demanding a decision? The Egyptians know full well that Hamas also has to review and does have to take into account the off-shoot terror groups operating in Gaza and whether that whole situation spins out of any control at all.

The story sounds more like propaganda than anything else. Weeks and weeks go by that Netanyahu is described as "considering" proposals but nobody is writing stories like this when he doesn't respond within a couple of days. Unless I heard something directly from an Egyptian official and they were named I wouldn't put much stock in this story of supposed Egyptian frustration. I can see where someone propagandizing and claiming Egyptian frustration as stated is trying to put the Egyptians on their back foot so to speak and make them appear to be weaker than they already are and give them internal domestic problems by making them seem a particular way. I could see one of their political/economic competitors in the region doing such a thing.

Now this would be more believable if the maps/proposal had been given and weeks and weeks went by with no word but that is not what we have here.
