- The Arab Peace Initiative is a comprehensive peace initiative first proposed in 2002 at the Beirut Summit of the Arab League by then-Crown Prince, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, and re-endorsed at the Riyadh Summit in 2007. The initiative attempts to end the Arab-Israeli conflict, which means normalizing relations between the entire Arab region and Israel, in exchange for a complete withdrawal from the occupied territories and a "just settlement" of the Palestinian refugee crisis. The Initiative was initially overshadowed by the Passover Massacre, a major terrorist attack that took place on March 27, 2002 (the day before the Initiative was published) and that had been claimed by the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing. The Arab League has since readopted the Initiative on several occasions, including during the 2007 summit. Although a number of Israeli officials have responded to the Initiative with both support and criticism, the Israeli state is yet to formulate an official response. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert expressed reservations over the plan and invited Arab leaders to discuss them, but welcomed the initiative as a "new way of thinking, the willingness to recognize Israel as an established fact and to debate the conditions of the future solution, is a step that I can't help but appreciate. " In 2007, Benjamin Netanyahu, as opposition leader, as well as a number of Likud members, have rejected the initiative outright. ^ In 2009, President Shimon Peres expressed satisfaction at the "u-turn" in the attitudes of Arab states toward peace with Israel as reflected in the Saudi initiative, though he did qualify his comments by saying: "Israel wasn't a partner to the wording of this initiative. Therefore it doesn't have to agree to every word. "^ The Palestinian Authority strongly supports the plan and Mahmoud Abbas officially asked President Barack Obama to adopt it as part of his Middle East policy. Islamist political party Hamas, the elected government of the Palestinian territories, is deeply divided, with most factions rejecting the plan. George Mitchell, the United States special envoy to the Middle East, announced in March 2009 that President Barack Obama's administration intends to "incorporate" the initiative into its Middle East policy. However, Mitchell and the U.S. government intends to make it clear that Israel should not concede on every issue in the initiative before the Arabs take visible steps toward peace.
