#2 Khodeir explained, saying it would perhaps be in the interest of Egypt to have peace and economic ties with Israel but from a religious viewpoint. "Those who don't care about the affairs of their Muslim brothers do not actually belong to them," Khodeir said

*snicker* now they want to diss Egypt too. Poor little Paleo's their catty little clique is getting smaller.

#6 So many Islamic countries' leaders have been looking for an excuse for a long time to improve relations with Israel. It is obvious to them now that most if not all of this anti-Israel bulldada was created by their worthless peers as a gimmick to promote their own sorry behinds.

#7 all of this anti-Israel bulldada was created.. as a gimmick to promote their own sorry behinds

So true. Just like here at home. Tantawi is a brave man. Too bad he made the national news as it endangers his life. But it makes you wonder how much of this is being said in mosques across the world that isn't making the headlines. Probably much more than we realize.
