Analyst: Arabs Want to Talk with Israel
[Ynet News] Yaakov Lappin - Israel is in "an enviable position" due to the unprecedented number of Arab states and organizations who wish to speak with it, Dr. Robert Satloff, the executive director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, told the Herzliya Conference on Monday. "For the first time in which I can recall, all Arabs want to talk to you. Arabs who like you, and those who don't like you, want talk to you," he said. Satloff also said he has surveyed Arab opinion from North Africa to the Persian Gulf, and found that "they are begging us [the U.S.] to stop Iran. To prevent an Iranian nuclear acquisition, and stemming Iranian influence. We remain the most powerful player in region."
