MUBARAK WARNS OF MIDEAST DESTRUCTION

CAIRO [MENL] -- Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has warned that the Middle East, including Israel, is heading toward destruction.

Mubarak said the region is sliding into war that could involve weapons of mass destruction. The Egyptian president said he relayed the warning to the United States and American Jewish leaders.

In an interview to the Beirut-based A-Safir daily, Mubarak said the continuation of the Israeli-Palestinian war could lead to regional war. He portrayed a scenario in which Israel would assassinate Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat, a move that would spark first anarchy and then revenge.

"I have no doubt that the people's patience will run out and this will force governments to engage in arms race, with the goal to acquire weapons of mass destruction," Mubarak said. "Biological weapons -- even a test tube of germs can destroy an entire nation -- chemical weapons and nuclear weapons can be brought in suitcases from the former Soviet Union."

"Then the entire region, including Israel, is liable to be annihilated," Mubarak added.

mubarak should be warning his muslim brothers as it will their weapons of war that are burned for seven years.

Ezekiel 39:9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:

Bingo! This is all a setup. For weeks now the Arabs have been speading the story that Israel is getting ready to assassinate Arafat. Arafat will be assassinated by his own people and they will blame it on Israel, and the dumbasses in Europe and the U.N. will believe them.

IMO, what Israel is doing now is far worse than assassinating Arafat -- they are ignoring him and making him irrelevant. That is a fate worse than death for a terrorist.

This isn't the first time I've seen this accusation, or at least seen a very strong 'suggestion' by the Arabs, that Israel is about to do something to Arafat. It's as if they have something up their sleeves, and will waste no time in blaming Israel.

Israel needs to be patient. It won't be long before the radical Palestinians assassinate Arafat. Either that or he'll just collapse in a heap on the ground. From some of the pictures I've seen of Arafat, it looks like he's already decomposing.

Seems to me Mubarak would further the cause of peace if he were to do three things:

1. He could assist in finding a leader for the Palestinians that would be in a position to negotiate in good faith for the first time ever among the Palestinians.

2. He could crack down on terrorism in his own country.

3. He could encourage Mosque elders and Imams to start preaching peace and introspection, rather than the evils of Israel and the Great Satan. It will still take years to start to rout some of the evil from Islam, but it would be a step to the good.

Question to Mubarak: How many Arabs (and Muslims of any persuasion) need to be killed before the idea of a holy war loses its appeal?

"Mubarak said the region is sliding into war that could involve weapons of mass destruction."

Quite possibly so.
(One thing Mr Mubarak, what are doing with those 24 ICBM's you just bought from North Korea??)\

Report: North Korea sells Egypt 24 medium-range missiles

It's so funny... not really but, Mubarak, like so many Arabs always point out when "Israel" or "America" is taking the step to far. Don't worry about the WTO mess when Arafat the murderer's life is in danger... THIS will bring anarchy and revenge, not the destruction of a major landmark in the capital of the biggest city in the most powerful nation in the world. Never mind that over 3000 innocent people in this country who's citizen's are feeding, clothing, and protecting people and thier rights the world over like no other nation in human history, were killed. Are these people morons or do they think the liberals have dummied us out that much to forget this quickly? Has THIS dope seen a "daisy cutter"???

So Mubarak, what are you going to do about it, except whine? Do you have any constructive suggestions?
