Binyamin Netanyahu attacks Arab spring uprisings

[tabatha]

Binyamin Netanyahu has launched a scathing attack on the uprisings in the Middle East, saying that Arab countries are "moving not forward, but backward" and support from the US and European countries was naive.

The Israeli prime minister said the Arab spring was becoming an "Islamic, anti-western, anti-liberal, anti-Israeli, undemocratic wave".

Speaking to the Israeli parliament amid renewed protests and violence in Egypt, Netanyahu said concessions to the Palestinians were unwise in a period of instability and uncertainty in the region.

1. Bibi's been hitting the bottle early.

He squanders a great opportunity and insults the very people who deposed anti Israeli leaders out of hand

It looks like now there's one more requirement put in the path of peace. So now not only does the roadmap require Palestinian cooperation, but that of the entire region as well. How many decades will have to pass before each and every country in the middle east becomes completely stable? Is this something new, or rather, is this a newly voiced requirement being imposed by the Israeli far right? If so, this should be making headlines.
