"It is the right of the host nation of any Arab summit to invite whoever it wishes even if the invitee is Iran or Israel." -- Abdullah Kamal , Rose El-Youssef

"Arabs must boycott the Israelis, demonstrate against their actions, show solidarity with each other, and teach their children to hate Israel." -- Mohamed Selim El-Awwa , Al-Osbou

"It is unreasonable to ask Egypt to cut its diplomatic ties with Israel and at the same time call upon Cairo to work for a ceasefire between the Israelis and the Palestinians." -- Abdel-Moneim Said , Al-Masry Al-Yom

"The ball is now in the Arab and international courts: either make use of the relative calm and try to reach a fair agreement or leave the arena for the biased US and Europe role that is likely to lead to another explosion in Gaza." -- Al-Quds

"The aggressor declared a ceasefire while his hands are still pressing the trigger and ready to shoot at his own convenient time." -- Al-Bayan

"Neither the Palestinian resistance, nor the media, nor the Doha summit brought the ceasefire, but the legendary steadfastness of Gazans." -- Bassem Abu Sumaya , Al-Hayat Al-Jadida
