Egyptian calls for destruction of Israel

Unlike the Iranian president, who called for the abolition of the government of Israel, this guy says, "nuke 'em":


Egyptian MP: Nothing will work with Israel except nuclear bomb


Israeli excavations near the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem sparked angry reactions on Monday from Egyptian parliament members, including one who said only a nuclear bomb could stop Israel.

The excavations, which aim to salvage artefacts before construction of a pedestrian bridge leading to the complex also sacred to Jews, have angered many Muslims who fear the work will harm the foundations of al-Aqsa mosque. Israel says the holy places will not be harmed.

"That cursed Israel is trying to destroy al-Aqsa mosque," Mohammed el-Katatny of President Hosni Mubarak's National Democratic Party (NDP) told a heated parliament session held to discuss the Israeli digging.

"Nothing will work with Israel except for a nuclear bomb that wipes it out of existence," he said.
Egypt was the first Arab state to sign a peace treaty with Israel in 1979, but many Egyptians still regard Israel as an enemy because of its continued conflict with Palestinians.

Several Egyptian lawmakers at Monday's session called on the government to abolish all agreements with Israel, but the house has little say in national security issues or foreign policy, ultimately dictated by Mubarak who has rejected similar calls in the past.

"The war with Israel is still ongoing whether we like it or not," NDP lawmaker Khalifa Radwan said. Mohamed Amer, another ruling party member, said: "What this [Israeli] gang is doing makes me demand that we trample over all the agreements we signed."…

I'm sure Chimp and Spiked would argue that Israel brought this upon itself.

I, however, think anyone who proposes nuking someone is a freaking nut.

[dasaybz]

People wonder why Israel has an itchy trigger finger.

They have and will again it's a sure thing.

[SpikedLemonade]

Israel has brought anger towards itself due to its own actions, however any discussion of nuking another country is insane and best left to American rednecks.

Israel has brought anger towards themselves due to religious beliefs above everything else.

Look what I found this morning:

U.S. Jewish leader: Early education vital to fight anti-Israel bias on campus

By Daphna Berman

The American academic elite is in danger of turning the U.S. against Israel and the Jewish community should respond by educating their children about current events here "as early as kindergarten," a leading American Jewish official said this week.

"There is more support for Israel among the American people than ever before, but we are seeing a poisoning of the elite similar to what happened in Britain," said Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice chair of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organization.

"People don't understand how we lost the campuses and the intellectuals," Hoenlein said. "It's become politically correct, the flavor of the week to be anti-Israel [on campus] ... It filters down. It takes time, but it's like a cancer."...

Bullcrap!

It's been their policies towards their Arab neighbours and NOT their Jewish faith.

I'm sure that their diplomatic prowess angered their muslim neighbors much more than their Jewish faith.

Give me a break.

[SpikedLemonade]

I'm sure that their diplomatic prowess...

By "diplomatic prowess" are you referring to Israel building settlements against UN resolutions, unliateral bombings of their Arab neighbours or checkpoints that demean Palestines?

OR is their general disposition that they tell the the world that America is their bitch by their actions?

Israel had issues with their neighbors well before they started breaking UN resolutions. They had issues with their neighbors as soon as the rest of the world recognized them as a country. Many countries today still will not recognize Israel as a country for the very fact that they are a Jewish settlement.

Religion has been the sole driving force for conflict in that region well before the UN ever got involved. I agree with you that Israel doesn't play fair and they have pissed alot of people off by their actions, but before the US ever armed them, they had problems.

Zionist problems began when they stole Arab land to form Israel.

Jewish problems are historical, but whatever you do, don't ever blame the Jews for mysteriously being hated for so long yet they have done nothing for that hate.

I guess they are just misunderstood.

Whatever.

I'm more concerned with the fact that American soldiers are dying for Zionist purposes.

If Israel wants to spill the blood of their sons and daugthers due to their ignorant and intolerable behaviour towards their Arab neighbours, that is one thing.

When young American soldiers die due their government telling them lies as to why they are fighting -- WMDs, etc., -- rather than the truth -- for Zionists -- that's another thing.

Israel will NEVER act reasonably as long as they have the US as their bitch.

What does the US get in return for their blind support of Israel?

Keep thinking about that question.

What about American soldiers dying for Kuwaiti lives?

There were very many Jews living in what is now Israel before WWI and WWII and the holocaust. They only became hated when they set up a religious state.

O-I-L!!!

How are your oil imports from Israel these days?

Crap! You will even take oil from a country that calls your President Satan at the UN.

For oil, you will do anything.

For Israel, you will do anything, but where's the oil?

[SpikedLemonade]

They were living there without a state period.

Religious state or NOT religious state.

It was their statehood in Arab land and their despicable behaviour since.

I would be ashamed to be the powerful USA and be Israel's bitch.

Threatening to "nuke" another country is one thing...actually doing it is quite another.

How many countries have used nuclear weapons on another???

[slowpokemcgee]

A small Middle Eastern Nuclear war would stop global warming though...Just let Isreal wipe out Iran and I guess now Egypt even though I thought they were our allies. I'm not too up to date on foreign relations though ATM.

Only one country was immoral enough to drop atom bombs.

It is NO great honour to be the first.

That's American propaganda that has been in American History textbooks for decades.

Ask the Japanese if they think droping those two atom bombs saved lives.

Not just in Japan but in Eroupe maybe....who's to say the USSR would not

have started fighting the US and England ?

I don't recall typing that they were in a state at all.

They are opposed for their religious state though. If they did not adhere to a religious law in a land that housed the third holiest site in Islam, there would not be a problem.

Immoral?

The only immorality I can see is dropping it on a city. A weapon is neither moral or immoral.

OK and your point is?

[Green Lantern]

Maybe it was just the way you typed. You said the only government IMMORAL enough to use a nuclear weapon. Using nuclear weapons is not, in itself, immoral. Dropping them on civilian populations might be called into the debate though.
