« Syria & Jordan Mend Fence | Main | Rice & the Peace Summit » Summit in Egypt
By Micah Halpern
Thursday February 3, 2005 I've Been Thinking: A peace summit is set for Sharm el Sheik next week. Egypt is host. Jordan and the Palestinians are coming. So is Israel. Yesterday, Egypt's National Security Adviser General Omar Suleiman invited Ariel Sharon to the summit while they were having a face to face 40 minute meeting in Israel. Suleiman reported on Israel's concessions in relation to the ceasefire and tried to convince Hamas to join in the ceasefire. Egypt is trying to exert pressure on the extremists. They have far more power than the new Palestinian President Abbas. In the Arab world, Egypt has a proven track record fighting extremists. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
