Israel and Saudi Arabia strange bedfellows

ISRAEL AND SAUDI ARABIA ARE INCHING CLOSER BY THE WEEK


This past week, the Chief of Staff of the Israel Defense Force gave an interview to a Saudi news site, Elaph, and said Israel would be ready to share intelligence about Iran with Saudi Arabia.

The tone of Saudi official comments on Israel has certainly changed. Once upon a time Israel was the “Zionist entity” whose name was not even spoken.

The Trump administration’s efforts to “fast-forward” Israeli/Saudi relations have not succeeded.The problem here is that the Saudis are right now getting the military and intelligence cooperation they appear to want from Israel—in secret.

Arab regimes do care about the Palestinians, but they care about themselves and their own political health far more.
