Saoodi King Abdullah Fears Full-Scale War
Saudi Arabia's king has warned the current crisis between Lebanon, the Palestinians and Israel could spark a full-scale Middle East war. King Abdullah has also pledged $500m to rebuild Lebanon and $250m to help the Palestinians.

"If the peace option fails because of Israeli arrogance, there will be no other option but war," Saudi state television quoted the king as saying in an official statement. "No one can predict what will happen if things get out of control.
"So we wish the Zionists would hurry the hell up and finish off the Shi'a Hezbollah."
"The Arabs have declared peace as a strategic choice ... and put forward a clear and fair proposal of land for peace and have ignored (Arab) extremist calls opposing the peace proposal... but patience cannot last forever."

The king was referring to an Arab peace initiative, proposed by Saudi Arabia and adopted in a 2002 Arab summit. The deal offers Israel a comprehensive peace in return for Arab land it seized in a 1967 Middle East war.
And requiring the 'right of return', and handing over Jerusalem including the Wailing Wall ...
