Abul Futtuh Refuses To Recognize Israel

13/05/2012

CAIRO, (PIC)-- Egyptian presidential hopeful Abdulmunem Abul Futtuh has said that he refuses to recognize Israel, describing it as a “racist entity”.

Abul Futtuh said in response to a question in an electronic host program on Saturday that Israel is a “racist entity” and a “thorn in the side of the Arab Nation” that impedes its progress and development.

He said that his position was clear over the past 40 years against Israel for its racist practices against the Palestinian people.
