Uprisings Seen Changing Balance of Power in Arab-Israeli Conflict
(Arab News-Saudi Arabia) Abdul Jalil Mustafa - The Amman-based Arab Thought Forum (ATF) think-tank, chaired by Jordan's Prince Hassan, said Monday in a statement that the latest spate of Arab revolts would lead to the emergence of a pan-Arab gathering that "changes the balance of power" in the Arab-Israeli conflict. "The uprisings of the Arab youth have demonstrated the joint concerns and dreams of the Arab world and enhanced the possibility of the emergence of an Arab bloc that changes the balance of forces in the Arab region." "These uprisings have also introduced a new element in international calculations and the proposed solutions for our main causes, foremost the Palestinian question and the U.S. occupation of Iraq."
