Saudi Arabia has conveniently allowed itself to be co-opted into US-led initiatives aimed at normalising Israel in the Arab world
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and a coterie of other Gulf states are set to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after his March 2 election, according to a statement by American Rabbi Marc Schneier to the Jerusalem Post.
“And Saudi Arabia? They’re essentially telling the US we’re here for you, and we’re still great friends in spite of everything that happened. Reviving their role as a great US ally in the region means stability, protection and possibly more business down the line.” to a 40-year-old plan published by the World Zionist Organization, titled the ‘Master Plan for the Development of Settlements in Judea and Samaria’.
Netanyahu himself has gone on the record revealing that his country maintains unofficial ties with a broad range of Arab states.The bold moves made by Saudi Arabia’s crown prince are already being propagated by state-controlled media. Popular Saudi columnist Ahmad Adnan railed at the PA in a widely read piece published by ‘Okaz: “The P.A. has made negative statements against the deal.
While underhanded ties to Israel have become increasingly commonplace, why are Saudi Arabia and the US boldly moving into the spotlight with evident ties now, after years of Trump’s promised impending ‘deal of the century’?More and more Arab states have de facto normalised ties with Israel, with Sudan being the latest in a long succession of Arab states to do so.
