Rethinking the Egypt-Israel “Peace” Treaty

Daniel Pipes re-examines the treaty that was signed between Egypt and Israel.

All things that was supposed to happen after the momentous occasion has not happened enmasse. Only Jordan followed suit. The rest of the Arab world was supposed to follow one after the other from Egypt’s example. It has not happened.

The Middle East is ripe with anti-Semitism and death to Israel sentiment among the Mohammedan populace. Egypt has had a peace treaty for twenty-seven years with Israel. Twenty-seven years and 92% of Egyptians over eighteen consider Israel an enemy State.

Now keeping this in mind, Egypt’s President Mubarak is aging. Who will replace the dictator? Mubarak is considering a nuclear program. Who do you think inspired that?

Following Iran’s stalwart example much of the Mohammedan nations that have the budget for it are considering the nuclear option. Considering the amount of vitriol by Mohammedans against Jews and Israel, this cannot be good.

Another to consider is that many of these Mohammedan nations (Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia come to mind) receive American arms and technology. If Saudi Arabia and Egypt are overcome by the sentiment of their constituent populations they would become instant enemies of Israel. Although Jordanians are pretty loyal to their Hashemite royal dynasty, I suspect Jordan by pressure of sheer numbers would fall in line.

Egypt and Saudi Arabia would be very formidable enemies that are very close to Israel. Israel could only survive a twenty-first century assault from Arabs and Mohammedans with outside assistance. I am here to tell you that the ONLY nation that would consider aiding Israel is America. Europe is ready to sell the Jews of Israel down the river for oil. Without European assurances, America would not have a stable way to come to Israel’s defense. This would become a holocaust that makes Hitler’s final solution look like a walk in the park.

The Egypt-Israel peace treaty is only worth the paper it is written on. Once radical Mohammedan prevails in the region, the paper will be worthless.
