Egypt's banned Muslim Brotherhood movement has unveiled its plans to scrap a peace treaty with Israel if it comes to power, a deputy leader said in an interview with NHK TV.
Rashad al-Bayoumi said the peace treaty with Israel will be abolished after a provisional government is formed by the movement and other Egypt's opposition parties.
As you can see MOgal, these lefties are already aware of this. They were brought up to speed when they were told that Egypt was going to go into revolution. This is what they want.
I think that Muslims have finally come to the realization that the piecemeal way they tried to handle Israel back in the 60s just didn't work because they tried to do it one at a time instead of all at once.
Now to get serious, I keep wondering how a banned group can be involved in how to reconstruct that bunch.
Too right. More to the point, help me understand why I ought to give a flying damn about Israel to begin with.
Right there you proved why you should have watched Beck Tuesday. Oh well, not all is lost as you can see that episode on your computer and maybe learn something you didn't know before.
Do you know how many other countries in the Middle East have a similar treaty with Isreal? Check up on it. The thorn is about to be removed and so few Muslims will be benefited by the removal.

If they couldn't keep it together in the 60s, why are we to believe they can now?
For a while there was a serious pan-Arabist, anti-Western secular movement. Gamel Nasser was one of its top leaders. They were pathetically proud when they united Egypt and Syria in 1958. That lasted for 3 years.
North and South Yemen unified in, I think, 1990. They nearly came apart in 1994, and may be coming apart again now.
The great historical failure of Americans is our refusal to accept that people who dislike us often dislike each other more. I think it proceeds from American exceptionalism. We're so exceptional, we suppose, that everything revolves around us. But it doesn't. We learned that in the Cold War, but many people seem to have forgotten the lesson.
