Israel Marks 40th Anniversary of Sadat's Visit to Jerusalem
(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "Today we mark 40 years to the historic visit of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in Jerusalem and Israel [on November 19, 1977]. President Sadat took a bold step, he came to the Knesset; he came to Israel. He was welcomed by the entire nation." "Since then, the peace treaty with Egypt has survived despite its ups and down. Today, Egypt and Israel, as well as other countries, are on one side of the barricade in a stubborn struggle against the terror of radical Islam in its various fronts."
