Israel denied knowledge of the case. "We are not familiar with the charges," said Israeli Foreign Ministry Yigal Palmor. "We will have to look into it in order to understand what this is all about."

Earlier an Egyptian security official said four locals were arrested on suspicion of spying for Israel and plotting to kidnap of tourists to harm Egypt's economy.

The official revealed that the four suspects allegedly set up offices in Egypt, Britain, Israel, and Gaza to record officials' phone conversations and collect information about Japanese and Chinese tourists visiting the Sinai Peninsula.

The plan, according to the official, was for agents of Israel to then briefly kidnap the tourists, disrupting the Egypt's vital tourism sector and damaging the economy.

Israel was also accused of throwing deadly Sharks in the sea to attack Egyptian tourists and destroy tourism in that country, which is a big part of Egyptian economy.

Anyways, add this to the picture, could the Shark one also be true?

Is this even true?

I am curious if this stems from the recent accusation by one Egyptian Officer that the shark attacks that recently occured were the result of Mossad. Israel also had 2 female tourists attacked (1 British 1 American). Both were stabbed, the Brit survived.

Initial invesitgation and reports from the survivor described Arab men.

Countries spying on each other is nothing new, and is as old as time itself since Adam walked up to Eve and wanted to know where she was going and why the snake looked so happy. When she refused to answer Adam enlisted the help of other creatures, and thus the Spy career was created.

Egypt probably uncovered a spy ring, and is attaching other info to it to embarras Israel, who will have to ignore the claim and look guilty by silence, or refute the claim which means they are acknowledging they had a spy ring go down and would need to provide info to support their denial.

Gotta love the modern day of James Bond.

Everyone has their doubts about Israel throwing sharks into Egyptian waters, but if you think about it, some economies strive on tourism. The shark incident is definitely plausible.

With this latest news, things are starting to get a little fishy....
