Former PM and Minister, Shimon Peres, responded today to the peace overtures from Syria.
Peres said that putting a stop to the activity of terrorist organizations' headquarters in Damascus is a preliminary condition for the beginning of a negotiation between Syria and Israel.
Peres added that Syria's wish to continue arming Hezbollah (which goes against UN resolution 1701) is intolerable. Peres is one of the architects of the Oslo accords and a Noble Peace Prize Laureate.
Several left wings members of Knesset called for the government to respond favorably to Syria's overtures.
