Even the most moderate, like Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Butros Ghali or pro-American Editor Mustafa Amin, maintain that a peace without the other Arabs is impossible.

Egypt, so isolated in the Arab world already, would isolate itself some more; Israel would turn over various occupied territories...
