Israeli relief

""Israel breathed a sigh of relief," Israeli commentator Alex Fishman wrote in Friday's daily Yedioth Ahronoth after Mubarak's speech. Fishman noted that now it was unlikely there would be any shifts in Egypt's foreign policy until at least September. "We've received an extension. Which will make it possible for the State of Israel to study the developments closely and to try to prepare for them," Fishman wrote."
