There are enough glaring errors here that it`s hard to know if any of his "facts" might be true.

Let`s take the "aggression" in 1967: In June 1967 (I was a U.S. naval officer at the time aboard a destroyer similar to the USS Liberty), Egyptian emissaries were in Washington discussing ways to defuse the crisis, while the Egyptian army had already stood down, when Israel struck without warning Egyptian airfields and launched armored divisions across the Sinai.

Most importantly, anyone who has much knowledge of Egyptian society knows why ordinary Egyptians today have ill feelings toward Israel, even after the 1979 peace treaty that has been so advantageous to both countries.

It`s the Palestinians and Lebanon, stupid!
