And so? What's the down side of this?! (evil grin) I mean really, I think this is awesome news! Here's a bit from the Gulf Daily News article here:
I don't know if this is anywhere close to the truth but man, if it is ....ALLRIGHT! Now, I do know that the Egyptians were not happy one bit with the way Hamas flooded in jihadists and weapons and explosives into Egypt after Hamas blew up the border fence from Gaza, so there may be a little bit of truth here. Although I highly doubt the Egyptians would bend over backwards to find Shalit. As to the Egyptians wanting to keep tabs on Haniya, well that I can see.
Either way, if Egypt is indeed torturing Hamas - I believe there would be a long line of volunteers ready to take over when they are too tired from swinging a lead pipe or pouring a few gallons of water down their noses.
Hamas accused Egypt of torturing dozens of its fighters who have been arrested and detained after crossing from the Gaza Strip.
He said Egyptian interrogators had questioned the prisoners about the possible location of Isreali soldier Gilad Shalit, missing since his June 2006 abduction near Gaza, as well as the movements of Hamas leader Ismail Haniya.

Hamas men 'tortured in Egypt'
GAZA CITY: Hamas accused Egypt of torturing dozens of its fighters who have been arrested and detained after crossing from the Gaza Strip.
A Hamas official said 39 militants are currently being held in Egypt, while 90 others have been released in recent weeks.
Most entered Egypt in January along with hundreds of thousands of people who crossed the frontier after militants breached a border wall near the Rafah crossing.
The fate of the prisoners has been discussed in recent meetings between Egyptian officials and Hamas representatives in the Egyptian town of El-Arish.
He said Egyptian interrogators had questioned the prisoners about the possible location of Isreali soldier Gilad Shalit, missing since his June 2006 abduction near Gaza, as well as the movements of Hamas leader Ismail Haniya.
Meanwhile, Egypt will become the main supplier of electricity to the Gaza Strip, which now depends mainly on Israel for its power supplies, the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram said.
A smuggler's tunnel linking Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip to Egypt has collapsed yesterday, nearly suffocating five Palestinian smugglers.
