Arab Peace Initiative Worse than Balfour Declaration

Islamic Jihad Secretary General Ramadan Abdullah Shallah slammed the Arab peace initiative, saying it is "worse than President Bush's vision, worse than the Road Map, and even worse than the Oslo Accords and the Balfour Declaration."

In an interview with the newspaper al-Quds al-Arabi, published in London, Shallah added that the goal of the Annapolis confab is "to drag new Arab countries, especially Saudi Arabia, to normalizing relations with Zionist regime and to cement an Arab-Israeli-American alliance that will give an Arab cover to the possible American-Israeli attack on Iran."
