This Day in History.

So today is what I would consider a rather good day in History.On this Date in 1979. Begin and Sadat signed a historic peace treaty formalizing the Camp David Accords of the previous year.
There are some who have argued that by simply making a bilateral treaty instead of a multilateral treaty Egypt and Israel doomed future peace efforts in the middle east. I disagree Anwar Sadat and Menachim Begin took a huge step forward in making Peace. They showed that is was possible for two hated enemies(who had fought four wars in the past 30 years) to normalize relations. It is unfortunate that Sadat lost his life in his cause for Peace.
