The prevailing optimism in media reports concerning the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafist party's readiness to adhere to the peace treaty with Israel is based on general statements made by senior officials in both parties.

P.S. That’s violations and provocations by Egypt, not Israel.

"...and the degree of Israel's compliance with the agreement from Egypt's perspective"

In the end,the only way Israel will ever be able to fully comply with islamic demands will be when they are totally incapable of complying with anything,because they no longer exist.

right after the peace accords were signed, our carrier ( the Kennedy) pulled into port in alexandria, egypt. Man, the people there were literally dancing in the streets!!!
they were grabbing our hands to shake them, slapping us on the back saying thank you, and yelling out Yah jimmy carter!!!

I guess that entire generation, that lived with war in their everyday lives, that finally got peace, must have died out....
