After all the reason Israel paid $300M was to brainwash Egyptians and Mubaraks wife didnt accomplish that. But Israel should know better than to bribe theives.
Binyamin Ben-EliezerA member of Israel's Labor Party has called on Egyptian officials to pay back Tel Aviv's bribes to Cairo during the regime of Hosni Mubarak. Binyamin Ben-Eliezer said Israel gave 300 million dollars to former dictator Mubarak to change the educational materials in order to reduce tensions between Israel and Egypt, IRNA reported.
He added that the money was given to the family members of Mubarak. Reports said Mubarak's wife, Suzanne, had several meetings with Israeli officials and educational experts over the project. Suzanne Mubarak led the Egyptian UN delegation in conferences relating to women and children. Mubarak was toppled in February following 18 days of demonstrations in protest against poverty, corruption and his regime's repressive measures.

Ehm, what is the source of this news gem? Cause if it all ends at Presstv, it is probably another "Mossad shark eating tourists in Egypt" thingy.
I find it hard to trust the news, since the idea of giving bribe will effectively end political life of Ben Elieser (and PM that authorized it) and since it is pretty clear that even if there was a bribe to Mubarakk's wife there is zero chance to get it from Egyptian government or anyone else for this matter. Why would anyone ruin political carrier for futile claims?

Knesset Member Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, a close friend of deposed Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak, warned that the latest developments in Egypt indicate that “over time Israelwill find itself in a head-on confrontation” with its Arab neighbor.
Ben-Eliezer (Labor) told the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee Monday that Israel “should start preparing for a conflict” with Egypt.
“We are in the midst of an earthquake, and I still can’t see it subsiding, definitely not in the near future when elections are on the horizon (in Egypt),” Ben-Eliezer told Yedioth Ahronoth.
