Syrian opposition group reportedly recognizes Israel

Russia’s Sputnik News Arabic reports that the Syrian opposition group “Salvation Front of Syria” is the first Syrian group to officially recognize Israel.

Fahed Al-Masri, the leader of the group but based out of Paris, has been making overtures to Israel for several months now. He’s been on Israeli TV and spoke via satellite at the conference on Syria at Hebrew University last month.

Formerly spokesperson for the Free Syria Army, al-Masri was quoted as saying that in the “new Syria “that he wants to build,  “we will not be hostile to Israel or any other country, and we welcome the return of Syrian Jews to Syria, even if they have Israeli nationality.”

“The Syrian Jews holding Israeli citizenship would be a bridge to the Syrian people to the West,” Al Masri said.

In December, al-Masri said that in his new Syria, the Golan would be returned but the Israelis who live there would become “peace ambassadors.” He also said that the new Syria would give citizenship to its Palestinian residents.

This week his group issued a “Roadmap for peace between Syria and Israel “ that called for severing ties between Syria and Tehran.

Part of this publicity campaign is because that Al-Masri is hoping that Israel will take a public stand against Assad and put pressure on the regime that will help the opposition forces.

“Personally, I am ready for the risk [of assassination]  if I have any role in achieving real peace between Syria and Israel and the end of Iranian domination over my country,” al-Masri told Media Line.
