Arab League backs Palestinian stance
2013-07-23
The Arab League said on Sunday it supported the Palestinian stance on the announcement of resumed peace talks with Israel, but that it was skeptical of Israeli intentions.
Bet that totally flummoxed you...
The League “is forming a political support network for the Palestinian side in case it accepts to go to the negotiations with the Israeli side,” Mohammed Sabih, Deputy Secretary-General for Palestinian affairs and occupied Arab territories, told reporters.

The Arab League had its doubts about IsraelÂ’s position on the resumption of peace talks, Sabih said.

“Many in the Israeli government do not want an Arab peace initiative.”
Many in the Arab governments also do not want an Arab peace initiative...
Sabih added that the Arab League was monitoring Israel’s stance so the talks were not simply “negotiations for the sake of negotiations, going round in a vicious circle”.

“This could be the last chance to revive the stalled peace process,” he noted.
