Mubarak on Gilat Shalit Aug 19, 2009
Can somebody please tell me what Mubarak really said?

Israeli internet sites report Mubarak called Shalit "our prisoner" (e.g. Haaretz, Ynet), but one source reports that Mubarak 'considers Gilad Shalit, as "one of ours" in captivity.' (search in google on "radiojai mubarak shalit", it's in Spanish: ''Shalit es como un egipcio en cautiverio''). There is also a video of the interview in which the translation is unclear "Shalit is ... prisoner". The video is found with google searching for "charlierose mubarak interview video" and in it Mubarak talks about Shalit at about 24:40.

I wonder whether all these Israeli news sources are jumping at a possibility to discredit Arabs, but have it wrong. Can anybody hear the original Arabic and tell me what he really says?
