Riyadh (April 03, 2018): Crown Prince of Saudi, Mohammed bin Salman has said that Israel’s right to exist, amid the atrocities of Israel against Palestine.
Salman said the Jewish state had the right to exist in an interview with the Atlantic, and the magazine reports that American peace negotiator Dennis Ross considers this is a first for any Arab leader. While some have recognized Israel’s existence, none have apparently said the Jewish people have a right to a peaceful nation. 
“I believe that each people, anywhere, has a right to live in their peaceful nation,” Salman said. “I believe the Palestinians and the Israelis have the right to have their own land. But we have to have a peace agreement to assure the stability for everyone and to have normal relations.”
Atlantic editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg then asked whether he had any “religious-based objection” to Israel’s existence, and he said his only concern is the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and the rights of Palestinians.
“We have religious concerns about the fate of the holy mosque in Jerusalem and about the rights of the Palestinian people,” he said. “This is what we have. We don’t have any objection against any other people.”
In recent past, at least 17 Palestinians were Martyred and hundreds injured by Israeli security forces confronting one of the largest Palestinian demonstrations along the Israel-Gaza border in recent years.
