Made-in-Israel Paper Cups Used in Local Hospital
Samir Al-Saadi, Arab News



JEDDAH, 22 August 2005 — Paper cups with Hebrew writing disturbed both employees and medical staff at King Khaled National Guard Hospital on Saturday. The catering subcontractor for the hospital coffee shops began using them on Saturday after their usual supply ran out.

“We were shocked and angry,” said an employee. “How can Israeli products be allowed and how did they enter this hospital?” he asked.

The Filipino employee who works in the Al-Musbah coffee shop asked: “Why is everybody mad about the cups?” He was told: “Because they are made in Israel!”

According to hospital officials, the matter is being investigated and action will be taken.

Saleh Al-Mazroi, executive director for operations at KKNGH, said the matter had been referred to authorities in Riyadh and was being dealt with.

On the bottom of the paper cup was a website address and a telephone number. When Arab News looked at the website — www.orion-rancal.co.il. — it was found to be in Hebrew though there were a few words of English: “Israeli disposable paper, plastic and foam dinnerware supplier for restaurants.”

Arab News contacted Ibrahim Al-Musbah, manager and owner, who said, “I thank you for informing me. I will look into it personally and the offending articles will be disposed of.” He added that the company has a supplier in the Kingdom from whom they buy restaurant supplies. According to Al-Musbah, the supplier might be unaware of the problem.

Al-Musbah later contacted Arab News and said that the paper cups had come to his company by mistake. The cups were in a cardboard box that looked exactly like the ones his company normally receives and so the employees did not notice any difference. Al-Musbah added that the supplier was named “Jeelani” and that he would supply Arab News with his contact numbers today.

The paper cups were quickly withdrawn from use but might there not be other, less obvious, Israeli products in our shops and marketplaces?

Meanwhile the Egyptian President declares that Israel should give jobs to the palestinians.

On one hand arab countries do not even accept a cup made in Israel. They do not allow a cup made in Israel to enter their countries. On the other hand they declare that israel should open its doors to the palestinians despite the suicide bombers that have crossed from the palestinian territories into Israel.



Mubarak: I understand evacuees' pain

In an exclusive interview to Yedioth Aharonot, Egyptian president sympathizes with settlers, but warns against turning Gaza into a 'huge prison'
By Sima Kadmon


In an exclusive interview to newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said he empathized with Gaza Strip settlers’ pain, but warned Israel against turning Gaza into what he called a "large prison."



Meeting with former Prime Minister Ehud Barak at the presidential palace in Cairo on Tuesday, Mubarak said, “Sometimes you need to move out of your home even when you would rather stay. I completely understand how difficult it is to pack up and move away from home.”



He added, “I also know no one enjoys spending money on a new house. Sometimes, circumstances make it a necessity.”




Warning to Israel



Despite his sympathy, Mubarak advised Israel to make sure Palestinians in Gaza have jobs after the pullout.



“Don’t make the mistake of stifling Gaza. Beware of turning Gaza into a huge prison; give jobs to the Palestinians," he said.




But Barak rejected the notion that Gazans would continue to work in Israel after disengagement.



“If we open Gaza it will turn into a crossing point for terrorists and weapons," he said. "Gaza must be closely monitored."



The Egyptian President complimented PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and called Israel to do “much more” to assist Abbas."



“Abbas’ control of the situation is tighter than I expected,” Mubarak said, “yet he needs Israel’s support. Improving the economic conditions of Gaza’s poor will help Abbas."
