A Message to the Mullahs
(New York Post) Amir Taheri - Egypt's President Mubarak's decision whether or not to pay a state visit to Iran depends on a symbolic move by the leadership in Tehran. Mubarak wants the Iranians to change the name of the Tehran street where the Egyptian Embassy is located, which currently bears the name of Khalid al-Islambouli, one of the terrorists involved in the assassination of President Anwar Sadat in 1981. Facing the embassy's main entrance is a giant-size mural of al-Islambouli that Mubarak also wants removed.
