Summary:

In Egypt, the press has always been considered a facet of modernization, as well as democratic rule. Palestine in the Egyptian Press examines the Palestine issue - an issue that features prominently in that press due to the political activities of Egypt's Jewish community, the development of a pan-Arab identity, and Egypt's involvement in Palestine's wars.
