"Dr Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed, the Ruler of Sharjah, yesterday called for Arabs to unite against the threat he sees posed by Israel. In an interview to promote his autobiography he said: “Israel wants to divide us. It tries to do so in Lebanon and Syria and involves Egypt in a religious conflict. It is necessary for us to unite.” Speaking on Sharjah TV, he said: “Our struggle with Israel is historic, but unfortunately we neither have the patience nor a long-term policy to
withstand it." (thanks Tom)
