Iran­ian Fars news reported that for the first time Egypt sent an offi­cial invi­ta­tion to Hizbol­lah lead­ers to visit Egypt and meet with Egypt­ian officials.

The Iran­ian news agency referred the report to Al-Akhbar news­pa­per. Unknown which Al-Akhbar [the Egypt­ian the Lebanese but on both news­pa­pers there no such report.Assuming that the Iran­ian news­pa­per do know much more about Hizbol­lah than we do, then there are two expla­na­tions behind this invitation.

Part of the major global “clean up” with the end of Bush regime, espe­cially after Egypt­ian news site Al-Mesryoon reported that Egypt­ian and Saudi advi­sors met with advi­sors of the Amer­i­can pres­i­den­tial can­di­dates Obama and McCain few days ago. First round nego­ti­a­tion was not very suc­cess­ful as the report said but prob­a­bly Syria will join the nego­ti­a­tions soon.

Sec­ond rea­son which related to the first, Hamas is very stub­born about the send­ing joint Arab forces to Gaza and even the open­ing of Gaza cross­ing seems not help­ing very much that Hamas will with­draw its veto.

Egypt is try­ing approch Hamas from Hizbollah’s side to con­vince Hamas after Qatari news­pa­per Al-Rai revealed that there is joint high com­mand between Hizbol­lah and “Gaza’s resis­tance” [as the news­pa­per put it], and that is the rea­son behind “Gaza’s resis­tance” mis­siles grow­ing hit power recently.
