Mubarak thinks Hamas will succumb to international pressure, change ways
2006-02-15
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak thinks Hamas militants soon to head the Palestinian government will succumb to international pressure and renounce their violent campaign against Israel, Israel's Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz quoted him Monday as saying.
Yeah. I think I'm going to wake up some morning and this lard gut will be gone and my hair grown back.
"The president says that he believes that Hamas will change its ways in the future and adopt the Israeli conditions," said Mofaz, who traveled to Cairo on Tuesday for talks with Mubarak and other Egyptian officials. His remarks were broadcast over Israel Radio. In other remarks translated into Arabic at a news conference, Mofaz said Mubarak pledged to "exert all of his efforts to make Hamas accept all the Israeli conditions." Last week, Hamas leaders meeting in Cairo said Egypt didn't put any pressure on them to yield to Israel's demands.
Enunciates clearly out of both sides of his mouth, doesn't he?

Guess which one will happen first?

The question is, does Mofaz actually buy what Mubarak's peddling?

#1  Cut the aid to Egypt and do something more useful with it, like set fire to it.
