that Sadat was not a religious fundamentalist. Sadat did not feel a religious imperative to destroy Israel. Therefore, when he felt it was in Egypt's interest to make peace with Israel he did. Nasrallah and Ahmadinejad on the other hand, are Islamic fundamentalists and real believers. They really believe that Islam should rule the world and that Israel has no right to exist on Muslim lands. They are not going to compromise on their religious principles and therefore there is little chance for real peace.
