Saudi prince meets ex-Netanyahu adviser

In a rare joint appearance of Israeli and Saudi Arabian officials, the kingdom’s Prince Turki al-Faisal and Israeli army Maj. Gen. (ret.) Yaakov Amidror appeared at a stage Thursday night in Washington.

The two sides staged a debate on ways to advance a "two-state" idea for the Israelis-PA conflict.

Al-Faisal, the former Saudi intelligence chief and ambassador to Washington, insisted that the Arab 'Peace' Initiative, a Saudi proposal to end the Palestinian isuee that was endorsed by the Arab League in 2002, was the path toward reaching a final-status agreement.

For his part, Amidror, a former national security adviser to the Zionist regime's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, urged the Arab world to form an “umbrella of cooperation” with Israel to bring the PA to the negotiating table.
