Egypt against Israel FM at Mediterranean forum
AFP ^ | 10/21/2009 | N/A

CAIRO (AFP) – Egypt is opposed to hardline Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman attending a meeting of the Mediterranean Union which it co-chairs with France, diplomats said on Wednesday.

Foreign ministers of the 43-strong grouping, which brings European Union members together with states from north Africa, the Balkans, Arab countries, Israel and Turkey, are due to gather in November in Istanbul.

An Egyptian diplomat told AFP that Cairo "did not want to send an invitation to the Israeli (foreign) minister," but could accept that Lieberman be represented by someone else.

Egyptian officials refused anything to do with Lieberman after he said last year that President Hosni Mubarak could "go to hell" if he continued to refuse to visit Israel.

To the AFP, a "hardline" Jew is one who refuses to walk into a gas chamber. Suicidal "Jews" like the vile Yitzhak Rabin were A-OK with "the International Community".
