Quartet Talks Endorse Arab Peace Plan as Path to Middle East Peace
Jordan Times reports Arab foreign ministers Marwan Muasher along with Saudi and Egyptian counterparts insist the Arab peace initiative should guide talks with the Quartet and the United States.

In Tel Aviv, Haaretz notes a Knesset committee postponed the Tal bill on yeshiva student conscription, citing High Court demands and a desire to end exemptions that have caused social tension and hindered broader education and citizenship opportunities.

Safe sex ads face Dutch budget squeeze amid rising infections
A DE Volkskrant column urges stronger safe sex campaigns in the Netherlands, noting rising sexually transmitted diseases, but Health Minister Els Borst plans cuts. It cautions campaigns underperforming among youth and calls for better tactics before spending millions, amid a hedonistic nightlife culture. The piece contrasts with Trouw’s Islam survey proposal, arguing for prudent, targeted measures and community training rather than broad funding. The Jordan Times discusses a potential U.S. attack on Iraq, warning regional instability, U.S. hard liners, and Israeli-Palestinian tensions as root causes of conflict. It argues for a comprehensive, long-term peace approach and an end to occupation to restore regional stability.
