Egypt Attaches Strings to Peace with Israel - Clinton silent as Egyptian officials
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 7/16/12 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 07/16/2012 10:17:02 AM PDT by Nachum

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was silent as a senior Egyptian official stated during a joint press conference that his country would only uphold its peace treaty with Israel if the Jewish state returns to its 1967 borders and gives Palestinians control over portions of Jerusalem.

During a press conference Saturday in Cairo, Clinton and Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohammed Kamel Amr were asked about Egypt’s longstanding peace treaty with Israel, which has come under scrutiny in recent months by officials of Egypt’s new, Muslim Brotherhood-led government.

“Egypt’s understanding of peace is that it should be comprehensive, exactly as stipulated in the treaty itself,” Amr said, referring to the original 1978 Camp David peace accords between Israel and Egypt.

“And this also includes the Palestinians, of course, and its right to—their right to have their own state on the land that was—the pre-June 4, 1967, borders with Jerusalem as its capital.”

Clinton remained silent following Amr’s statement. (The Obama administration also backs a return to the pre-1967 borders—a decision that was roundly condemned by Jewish leaders when it was announced by the president in May 2011.)

When is Clinton going to wise up and tell Obama to go SI.

With the pre-1967 borders, there was no Palestine. Gaza was occupied by Egypt, and Jerusalem & the West Bank had been annexed by Jordan.

From 1948 to 1967, the Egyptians saw no need for the Palestinians to rule anything.

Don’t fool yourself.

Obama’s policies toward the Jews are also the Clinton’s. Why the f do you think they had Arafat padding around the WH constantly? Why do you think they gave “Mein Kampf” as christmas gift to their staffers? Does no one have a longer memory than a cheap goldfish?

Really not grasped the significance of bin Laden and Bill Clinton being school chums?

Egypt going to war against Israel again raises the question of where are the Egyptians going to go after Israel moves in?

Ain’t gonna happen. Israel should re-occupy the Sinai - screw the Muzzies.

If Morsi & the muzzies think it’s going to be 1973 again, then insanity really is defined as doing the same thing over & over while expecting a different outcome.

If Morsi sends a “million muslim martyrs” to march on Jerusalem, the Israelis will be forced to ask themselves,

“So many Arabs. Where will we bury them all?”

Bury? What a waste of fine pig food.

Hillary is over there to put all the pieces in place for Egypt and the ‘Palestinians’ to open a shooting war with Israel in time to affect the Presidential election.

The treaty is here. Nothing about Palestine in it, for obvious reasons, there was no such thing as Paletine. For a little while Egyptian Gaza, they can have it, and Jordanian Sumaria and Gallilee. 19 of the last 3000 years of so. Hope Hillary enjoyed the Brotherhood hug, sorry about the shoes and tomatoes, no American Secretary of State should be subjected to that.

Thanks Nachum.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohammed Kamel Amr... "Egypt's understanding of peace is that it should be comprehensive, exactly as stipulated in the treaty itself," ...referring to the original 1978 Camp David peace accords... "And this also includes the Palestinians, of course, and its right to -- their right to have their own state on the land that was -- the pre-June 4, 1967, borders with Jerusalem as its capital."
IOW, he's a liar -- the Camp David treaty, which Egypt's jihadists want to abrogate anyway, don't say anything about a withdrawal to 1967 borders. And, besides that, he can go be fruitful and multiply, but not in those words.

“Clinton also affirmed the Obama administration’s commitment “to relieve up to one billion dollars in Egypt’s debt,” as well as to provide “$250 million in loan guarantees to Egyptian small-and-medium-sized businesses.”

Because we are so rich and have money to throw away
