(Ynet News) Tomer Velmer - According to Dr. Mordechai Kedar, a senior research fellow at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Bar-Ilan University, "The peace between Israel and Egypt was illegitimate to begin with in the eyes of the Egyptian people. It was an agreement with the Zionists, and the majority of the Egyptian population is religious, and does not believe the State of Israel has the right to exist." "Anwar Sadat, who was a dictator, decided to act against the will of his people when he signed the peace treaty, and was assassinated as a result," Kedar said. "Since Mubarak was deposed, unemployment has doubled, and so has the frustration among Egyptians, who are desperately looking for a scapegoat...so the Egyptian public turns its anger toward Israel." Despite the hatred toward Israel, Prof. Eyal Zisser of Tel Aviv University doesn't foresee a military clash with Egypt, even if public pressure continues to grow. "The Egyptian army is too preoccupied with instilling order, and has no time or willingness to prepare for war." 2011-09-12 00:00:00Full Article
