#2 Quite obviously, Egypt wants a bigger cut than they're currently getting. "Egyptian leadership," just like "Arab unity," are both total oxymorons.

#4 I think that Israel should unilaterally cede Gaza to Egypt and tell Mubarek that security is his responsibility, i.e., Cairo will be held responsible for any terrorist attacks originating from Gaza. Then he should give the West Bank back to Jordan and tell the UN and Arafat to pound sand. King Abdullah might not be happy to get the Palestinians back, but with a little help, he could control them.
