Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal said in Cairo the entire Arab world is prepared to offer Israel peace in exchange for its total withdrawal from occupied Arab territories.  

 

He was speaking to journalists after briefing Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on his talks last week with US President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Colin Powell.  

 

"The Arabs affirm that we are ready to sign a peace treaty with Israel the same day that it totally withdraws from occupied Arab territories," Faisal said. (Albawaba.com)
