Egyptian Salafi MP says Egypt will honor Camp David accords... but there may be reservations

Here's an Egyptian Salafist MP being interviewed on al-Jazzeera saying that his country will honor the Camp David accords... but there may be reservations. That last phrase is the part that you never hear when these kinds of statements are reported in the media, but it's in this video in black and white.

Moreover, at the end he hints at why Egypt will honor the accords: 'Because we must rebuild our country.' The Egyptian economy is in the toilet, and they cannot afford to risk the $2 billion in annual US aid that they could lose if they cancel the Camp David accords. But if they ever manage to strengthen economically so that they feel that they can get along without that money, watch out.

Let's go to the videotape.
