I've Been Thinking:
President al Sisi of Egypt told Palestinian President Abbas yesterday that he accepts the two-state solution.
The two had a meeting in Cairo and the Egyptian president explained that he was in favor of a Palestinian state and an Israeli state based on the '67 borders.
This is a tremendous step forward.
In essence, Egypt is saying that they want a resolution to the Palestinian problem and urging Abbas to move. The important point is that with a resolution other issues in the Middle East can and will fall into place and begin to be resolved.
Of course al Sisi also said that the Palestinian state would have its capital in Jerusalem.
An agreement with Israel mean that the Palestinians would be able to secure their future and that Arab leaders would be able to focus their attention on the other issues within the Arab world that require their time and energy.
