The Muslim Brotherhood is blaming Israel for the deadly cross-border attack which killed 16 Egyptian soldiers. President Mohammed Morsi and Field Marshall Mohammed Hussein Tantawi flew to the border town Monday to rally the moral of troops. Hundreds of soldiers and police have been deployed throughout the cities of al-Arish and Rafah in response to the attacks. The Egyptian government is conducting a manhunt in Sinai in search of the assailants who escaped.
