Yes Nadine, the piece is something that is a combination of both. That is they are hard on the ISraelis as well as they are calling on Arafat to go also. What the Saudis did in the past is no longer relevant now. For them things have changed because of the threat that they face from one of their own, Bin Laden.

After seeing what Bin Laden could do to the US, they have no doubt that Al Qaeda could easily cause havoc to the Saudi monarchy. And hence they are forced to change their tune, such as recognizing the existence of Israel etc. Even though their sponsorship of the peace plan calls for Israel's withdrawl to the 1972 boundaries, it would be interesting to see if they would settle for Israel to move to the 2000 boundary. I am optimistic. I am not so sure about you.
