Arabs Call on Israel To Take Peace Offer
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, March 29 -- Arab leaders on Thursday reiterated their offer to normalize ties with Israel and showed signs of flexibility in their terms for peace.
At a news conference at the end of a summit where the Arab leaders' peace plan was the main issue on the agenda, Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal said Arab countries would establish normal ties with Israel as soon as it had resolved its disputes with its immediate neighbors.
"We cannot change the plan because it offers peace, and changing it would mean we're no longer offering peace," Faisal said, echoing Arab League chief Amr Moussa's insistence that there would be no changes in the plan ahead of negotiations.
But Faisal said: "Once Israel returns occupied land and comes to an agreement with the Palestinians, returns occupied land to Syria and comes to an agreement with them, and it resolves its land issues with Lebanon, Arab states will immediately establish relations."

Sounds like a good deal but if the Arab States actually plan to "immediately establish relations"....that should also include their future actions against attacks by Hezbollah and Hamas groups. Turning a blind eye isn't establishing relations.

Arabs Call on Israel To Take Peace Offer
Who didnt see this coming.....
Israel has refused to accept a revived Arab peace initiative, saying more negotiations are needed.
The plan, put forward after an Arab League summit in Saudi Arabia, offers Israel full diplomatic ties if it withdraws from all land seized in the 1967 war, allows the creation of a Palestinian state and the return of Palestinian refugees.
