Israeli Foreign Minister: Saudi Message Inadequate

[Ynet News] Yitzhak Benhorin - Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said Wednesday that while Saudi King Abdullah's peace initiative is important, the words of Arab leaders at the UN's interfaith dialogue conference are inadequate.

Meanwhile, President Shimon Peres said that "nobody expects Israel to accept the Arab peace initiative as is." However, he added that he sees genuine and positive change, and that "if there's a will, there's a way."
