'Netanyahu is ruining peace chances'
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak blasted Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's speech on Sunday saying "Netanyahu's demand that Palestinians recognize Israel as the Jewish state is ruining the chance for peace," Egyptian news agencies reported on Monday.
Mubarak further added that "not Egypt, nor any other Arab country would support Netanyahu's approach."
Earlier Monday, a Syrian government newspaper slammed Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's speech, and likened Israel's policies towards Palestinians to those of the Apartheid government in South Africa towards its black population.
Syria's state-controlled Tishrin published an editorial claiming that the prime minister's foreign policy address proved that Israel's interest is to allow Palestinians to live only in isolated areas, similarly to black people in Apartheid South Africa.
"The Zionist government, according to Netanyahu's speech last night, is willing to establish Palestinian cantons reminiscent of the black people's cantons in South Africa when the racist regime was in power," the editorial stated.
