Syrian rebels seek peace with Israel

2012-03-02 9

Labor Party Knesset Member Isaac Herzog says Syrian opposition leaders
have told him they want peace with Israel after Syrian President
Bashar Assad falls. Herzog refused to name his sources because he said
they fear retribution but that they are aligned with the main rebel
factions in Syria. Herzog also said Israel should supply medical and
humanitarian assistance to the rebels. However, he ruled out military
aid to rebels fighting President Assad's Alawite regime.
