Iran Renews Nasser's Three "No's"
(New York Times) Anthony Shadid - To tens of thousands of supporters gathered in Beirut to welcome President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah declared that Iran's Islamic republic "supports the 'no's' that the Arabs declared at the time of Egyptian President Nasser in Khartoum before many abandoned them. Iran renews these 'no's' along with the Arab nation." At the Arab summit in Sudan in 1967, Arab states declared "no" to peace with Israel, "no" to negotiations with it, and "no" to recognition of it.
