26 March 1979 - EGYPT-ISRAEL PEACE TREATY ENDS 30-YEAR WAR: Seven months
after meeting with US President Jimmy Carter for peace talks at Camp
David, Anwar Sadat of Egypt and Menachem Begin of Israel sign a treaty
ending decades of conflict between their two countries.

The peace treaty between Egypt and Israel was signed 16 months after
Egyptian president Anwar Sadat's visit to Israel in 1977, after intense
negotiations. The main features of the treaty were mutual recognition,
cessation of the state of war that had existed since the 1948
Arab - Israeli War, normalization of relations and the withdrawal by
Israel of its armed forces and civilians from the Sinai Peninsula, which
Israel had captured during the Six-Day War in 1967. Egypt agreed to
leave the Sinai Peninsula demilitarized. The agreement provided for free
passage of Israeli ships through the Suez Canal, and recognition of the
Strait of Tiran and the Gulf of Aqaba as international waterways, which
had been blockaded by Egypt in 1967. The agreement also called for an
end to Israeli military rule over the Israeli-occupied territories and
the establishment of full autonomy for the Palestinian inhabitants of
the territories, terms that were not implemented but which became the
basis for the Oslo Accords.

 Stuff each pita pocket with ? cup of the meat mixture.
 Using the back of a spoon, spread the meat mixture
 inside the pita pockets.

 Arrange the pitas in the prepared sheet pan. Brush the
 pita pocket tops with a bit of extra virgin olive oil.

 Bake in the heated oven for 15, then carefully turn the
 pitas over and cook on the other side another 5 to 10
 minutes until the meat is fully cooked and the pita is
 crispy on both sides.
