skmiller is Right-On Man! 1977 Israel-Egypt Sinai deal shows that we Jews are not as "savvy" as we thinkReader comment on item: Bibliography – My Writings on George W. Bush and the Arab-Israeli Conflict Submitted by James Burke (Canada), Oct 26, 2007 at 17:57 Savvy - from french "savoir" meaning to know. Surrendering all of Sinai; right " up to the rocks" of the Red Sea. Israel developed the Alba oil fields; value: approx. $100 billions. Not millions. Billions. In return: 1) little cultural exchange 2) tourism - one way street; from Israel to Sinai and Egypt 3) Oil? I cannot say but most likely Israel having to pay the market value 4) Peace? Technically yes Friendship? No - lo - la. If you count from the egyptians to the Israelis. 5) Any good will from other Arab nations? Jordan ( OOOO I`m shaking. KIng Abdulla is duplicit. In 1967 it took Israel two hours to destroy their air force) 6) Any good will from the Western media? None that I can see This " funny peace" treaty has left many of us bitter and angry.
