Egyptian comedian Adel Imam accused the Islamic Resistance Hamas movement of killing an Egyptian border guard last week, the Al-Quds al-Arabi daily reported Sunday.

Imam had called for a popular protest to express the popular outrage at the killing of the soldier when the Life-Line convoy was supposed to cross into Gaza. However, the daily said that Imam’s colleagues and film stars did not show up at the Haram Theater where the protest was supposed to take place. Of the known artists, only Mohammed Henidi, Lubluba, and author Yussuf Maati as well as painter Ibrahim Abdul Malak had shown up, it reported.

Imam said that ever since Hamas took over in Gaza and the situation there has turned upside down…The Palestinians have destroyed Gaza because of their misconception of the strength of their enemy, Adel Imam said.

The comedian added that the Egyptian people still loves the Palestinian people, but there exists a group that has ill intentions and spite for Egypt, something that has been on the rise since Hamas took over.

Adel Imam also lashed out at British MP George Galloway who was leading the Life-Line convoy to besieged Gaza. This is a suspicious man with a known history of fickleness.
Imam took the opportunity to express support to Egyptian Iron Wall thats being built to isolate Gaza from Egypt, but failed to mention the Palestinian youth who was also killed when Egyptian border guards opened fire at dozens of Palestinians tossing stones on the Egyptian side of the border in protest at banning the Life-Line convoy from entering Gaza. 19 other Palestinians were also injured in the incident.

Hamas leader in Gaza, Ismail Haniyyeh, had offered condolences to the Egyptian government and said that Egyptian and Palestinian blood is precious and called for restraint by both sides describing what happened as a summer cloud that should not affect ties between Gaza and Cairo.
