BEIRUT — President Mohammed Morsi of Egypt warned the Syrian president, Bashar Assad, on Sunday that ‘‘your time won’t be long,” as Syrian warplanes and artillery shelled the battleground city of Aleppo and opposition groups reported heavy fighting around the Euphrates River city of Deir el-Zour.
Morsi, an Islamist and Egypt’s first elected president, went after Assad just days after the top Syrian government spokesman said that the only change in Cairo since the ouster last year of Hosni Mubarak was Morsi’s beard. Morsi has called for nations to come together to support the Syrian opposition and end the bloodshed. His warning added to the acrimony in the region as the Syrian civil war continues to spill blood and pour out refugees.

This comment is intended for the article about migrants that ARE NOT IN ISRAEL. Each time I try to post I get an error message.*************************************We are ALL lucky to live in the land of plenty. ***********Africa is a mess.*********** These refugees are in EGYPT. Why isn't anyone asking why they do not want to stay in EGYPT. My guess is- ISRAEL is a democracy. It is a land of hope, much the same as America. These refugees passed through Egypt to camp at a BORDER FENCE. You will notice ASSOCIATED PRESS did not querry why these poor , displaced people were not made welcome and comfortable in EGYPT. Since these people are in EGYPT under international law can EGYPT return these people. Why is that Israel's issue. WHERE IS THE CRITICISM OF EGYPT?
