Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani called in an interview with CNN for Israel to talk to Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and convince him to elect a group of officers, representatives of the protesters, and public officials to establish a new interim government.
Giuliani said that “Israel must be like the U.S. and persuade Mubarak to resign immediately, and choose a leader or several leaders who will head an interim government until elections….We must get Mubarak to realize that keeping the regime’s stability until he leaves office is a top priority.”
Other comments in the interview include: The Obama Administration has “by and large done a pretty good job…..ElBaradei is no friend of the United States…..Muslim Brotherhood is no doubt just waiting for the Mubarak Government to fall so they can try and get a piece of the new government, and move the country into an Islamist kind of government like they have in Iran.
He also called Mubarak a “brutal dictator”.

Since when is Israel and Egypt friends? Since when is it Israel’s place to tell Mubarek what to do? Nice idea Rudy, but Israel needs to stay out of Arab business. If Netanyahu advises Mubarek about anything, that should be top secret and not public information.
Sorry Rudy but Israel should just stand on the side and not say anything. Granted they should be preparing in case CH”V the Arabs Yemach Sh’mom decide to take this to the next level.
I’m not too keen on the USA running its mouth off too much either!
Just because the US has absolutely no idea how to deal with foreign countries, Israel does not have to follow. Did America understand the mindset of the Iraqis? Or Palestinians? Or Lebanese? Or Iranians? They project their own values and personalities onto the rest of the world.
They can’t differentiate between a religion and its extreme practice, which is why the American right will ridicule Islam, doing a lot to the cause of peace, and the left won’t identify terrorists as Islamists, for fear of violating the holy open mindedness they worship.
sorry for both of you, but who in the middle east is a freind if not egypt? no idont think israel should tell mubarak to step down, but so should obama stay quiet!!!
