Anwar Sadat (December 25, 1918 – October 6, 1981) was the third President of Egypt, serving from 1970 until his assassination. He is best known for leading Egypt in the October War of 1973 and for his historic peace initiative with Israel, which earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 alongside Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. Sadat's policies, including the Camp David Accords and economic liberalization, reshaped Egypt's domestic and foreign affairs. His assassination by Islamist extremists during a military parade marked a tragic end to his transformative but controversial leadership. more

“The Cold War philosophy of Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD), which prevented the former Soviet Union and the United States from using the nuclear weapons they had targeted at each other, would not apply to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's Iran.

“Therefore, is thy brother a sinner? Then cover his sin and pray for him. Dost thou publish his sins, then truly thou art not a child of your merciful Father; for otherwise thou wouldst be also as he, merciful. It is certainly true that we cannot show as great mercy to our neighbor, as God has to us; but it is the true work of the devil that we do the very opposite of mercy, which is a sure sign that there is not a grain of mercy in us.”

“Then they began to say: 'Yes, but how can we know what is God's Word, and what is right or wrong? We must learn this from the Pope and the councils.' Very well then, let them conclude and say what they please, yet I will reply, you cannot put your confidence in that nor thus satisfy your conscience, for you must determine this matter yourself, for your very life depends upon it. Therefore God must speak to your heart: This is God's Word; otherwise you are undecided.”
