1. Pres Sisi-Pals want right of return and NOT recognise Israel
Alan ,   SA   (05.17.16)
as a Jewish State Pals want to flood Israel with 4 to 6 Million Muslims. EU now is being flooded by only around 1 million Muslims and there are tremendous Social Consequences.In fact threre may be civil war soon if this flood is not stopped -So how can little Israel (size of New Jersey or Wales or the Kruger Animal Reserve in SA) absorb all the 4 to 6 million DESCENDENTS of 1948 so called Nakba. Forget it
2. Statehood
Mark ben Josef ,   USA   (05.17.16)
Sisi is talking about real statehood for Palestinians. It is surprising Netanyahu welcomed the idea. He always rejected it in the past. Sisi also talked about Palestinian unity, also anathema to Netanyahu. That would mean Fatah reconciling with Hamas and other factions even more radical than Hamas. And the French initiative, no less. Didn't Netanyahu reject that just two days ago? Amazing.
3. Israel needs to show willingness for peace. High time!!!

4. BEWARE OF THE FRANKS BEARING PEACE PROPOSALS
(05.17.16)
these are the same people who perfidiously dropped all defence supports for Israel back in 1967... when Israel most needed that support.. as for the franks ... they are not interested in Israel's welfare but only in their return to the area as colonial masters...
5.  LOL Susu. Arab Muslims will never make real Peace with Jews
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (05.17.16)
6. Damn, I'd do ANYTHING for WARM ties, wouldn't you?:-)
(05.17.16)
7. "he promises warmer ties with Israel"
A ,   Belgium   (05.17.16)
Al-Sisi, as if by magic, will convince over 90 million Egyptians who are hostile to Israel to become friends with Israel, if only Israel gives the imaginary "palestinians" their own terrorist enclave in Judea and Samaria. Solve your own problems with the "palestinians", Mr.President, you have enough of those to contend with.
8. Sissy isn't Israels friend...oh well.
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (05.17.16)
9. Non-Belligerance is a key
Zola   (05.18.16)
Much of Islam is not moved by the ancient Jewish connection to the Holy Land believing Islam superseded Judaism and Christianity . As for the Holocaust Holocaust Denial is rife in the Islamic world and though there is a understanding of Jewish motivation for an armed state it leaves little impression . The Power of Israel is respected however but with great misgivings . It will be hard therefore to maintain the Palestinian state demilitarised in as much a threat to the Jews and a massive destructive regional war . Both societies are heavily divided .
