Egyptian President Mubarak: Resistance is Legitimate
In an interview with the 'semiofficial weekly' Akhbar el-Yom newspaper, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, whose country has a peace treaty with Israel as a result of which Egypt is the third largest recipient of US foreign aid, said that "Resisting the occupier is a legitimate right under the condition that it springs from free will and in accordance to the supreme national interest."Mubarak also called Hezbullah "part of the Lebanese national fabric."
Mubarak also had some advice today for the United States in its dealings with Iran:
Egypt's president said Saturday that the United States should refrain from taking military action against Iran because doing so would create instability not just in the Middle East but around the world, according to a published report.
"The conflict between the United States and Iran should be solved through diplomacy and direct dialogue because striking Iran means the end of stability in the region and the world."
