Egypt FM: Intifada Has Run Its Useful Course, Should End
(IslamOnline-Qatar) The Palestinian uprising has run its useful course and to continue it would threaten the loss of the gains it has achieved, Egypt's foreign minister said Friday. Ahmed Maher told the official daily Al-Ahram, "The armed intifada has reached the point where it cannot further achieve its objective, and it will be exploited against the Palestinian people and their rights." Maher said the "gains (of the intifada) need to be preserved so that they are not transformed into losses."
