SHARM EL-SHEIKH – In the wake of an attack that killed 16 security officers in the Sinai Peninsula in August, the Egyptian military has ratcheted up the pressure against jihadis there. Generals have promised an extended campaign to extinguish the terrorist threat, bringing in heavy armor and firing missiles at training camps to back up their pledge.
沙姆沙伊赫——8月西奈半岛发生致死16名安全人员的袭击事件后，埃及军队逐步加强了对圣战者的压力。将军们信誓旦旦要发动扑灭恐怖威胁的长期战争，并为实践诺言为训练营配备了重装备和导弹。但如果过去的表现能预示未来的结果，这次进攻很有可能只是昙花一现。军方向来对稳定西奈半岛没多大兴趣，此前清除圣战者的行动并没有阻止他们重回西奈。
