Nudging a just and lasting peace into place is not easy, but it is a necessary step for all involved. Keep your eye on the ball: The Arab Peace Initiative

1. Requests Israel to reconsider its policies and declare that a just peace is its strategic option as well.

2. Further calls upon Israel to affirm:

I- Full Israeli withdrawal from all the territories occupied since 1967, including the Syrian Golan Heights, to the June 4, 1967 lines as well as the remaining occupied Lebanese territories in the south of Lebanon.

II- Achievement of a just solution to the Palestinian refugee problem to be agreed upon in accordance with U.N. General Assembly Resolution 194.


III- The acceptance of the establishment of a sovereign independent Palestinian state on the Palestinian territories occupied since June 4, 1967 in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, with East Jerusalem as its capital.


3. Consequently, the Arab countries affirm the following:

I- Consider the Arab-Israeli conflict ended, and enter into a peace agreement with Israel, and provide security for all the states of the region.


II- Establish normal relations with Israel in the context of this comprehensive peace.

Forever more all the world will know how reasonable and right the Arab Peace Initiative has been- let us hope that Israel embraces this golden opportunity to do the right thing... for every one's sake

Anne Selden Annab
