Nope, just the guy who was introducing him. It would have been a great time for Morsi to say, "Our goal is a peaceful, successful Egypt and we have no designs on other lands" but, he did not.

The goal of the Brotherhood has not changed.

They waited around 70 years for this and I am going to study them a little more before I formulate an educated opinion of them.

So far Mursi started well. He want to address the people who opposed him in recent election and it is a good start. I hope he continue to use wisdom and fairness in his future steps. He said he will respect peace treaty with Israel as well.

Peres shows the world how to be a class act. (Chari, this is how you do it in international affairs)

President Shimon Peres sent a letter of congratulations to his new Egyptian counterpart, reassuring him of Israel’s desire to maintain peaceful relations and telling him that all Israelis respect the Egyptian people.

Peres sent the letter to the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi, who was sworn in Saturday as the Arab world’s first freely-elected Islamist leader, on Thursday afternoon. On Sunday, Peres’s office said it got confirmation that the letter had been received in Cairo.

“As someone who took part in the process that led to the signing of the peace agreement between your country and mine, I know that both Egypt and Israel see with utmost importance peace and stability in our region as something that serves the interests of all peoples of the region,” Peres wrote in the letter, which was written and signed in Arabic
