Israel boosts ties with Arab allies, Palestinians not included


12.jpg


Israel hosted the foreign ministers of four Arab nations and the United States in a bid to strengthen its position in a rapidly shifting Middle East.

The gathering brought together the top diplomats from all but one of the Arab countries that have normalised relations with Israel in US-mediated negotiations, including three that signed agreements with Israel during the Trump administration in 2020.
Meeting at a resort in the southern Naqab (Negev) region near the tomb of Israel’s first president, David Ben-Gurion, the ministers and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken pledged to expand cooperation to include energy, environmental and security matters and try to bring others into the agreements.
The Palestinians were not invited to the summit, despite their ongoing occupation at the hands of Israel being a central feature of Arab-Israeli relations for the last 50 years.
“Just a few years ago this gathering would have been impossible to imagine,” Blinken said. “The United States has and will continue to strongly support a process that is transforming the region and beyond.”
The UAE and Bahrain formed ties with Israel under the Abraham Accords, brokered by former US President Donald Trump. Morocco then re-established relations with Israel under a separate Trump-brokered agreement.
“We are here today because we genuinely, sincerely and deeply believe in peace,” Morocco’s Nasser Bourita said. “Not that kind of passive peace where we turn our backs to each other and peacefully ignore each other.”
“We believe in a thorough, fruitful, paradigm-shaping, and value-creating peace in this region,” he added.
Jordan was the only Arab country to have normalised relations with Israel to not attend the summit. The country’s King Abdullah instead visited the Israeli-occupied West Bank in solidarity with the Palestinians.

Alliance against Iran​


The gathering comes as the Biden administration has been working to renew the 2015 international nuclear deal with Iran. The agreement placed curbs on Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for billions of dollars in sanctions relief.

All the ministers expressed misgivings over Iranian behaviour across the region and the possible renewal of the international nuclear accord with Iran.
Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid said the group was “making history” as he announced the gathering would become an annual event.
“Creating a new regional architecture intimidates and deters our common enemies, first and foremost Iran,” Lapid said.
“They certainly have something to fear.”

Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara said the summit is a reflection of the two worlds of rhetoric and reality.
“The rhetoric was singing Kumbaya,” he said. “The reality is people living under occupation. We have four Arab ministers who wouldn’t even dare go to the occupied Palestinian territory, partly out of shame and partly out of guilt, because they are normalising relations on the back of Palestinians.”
The reason for the meeting, Bishara went on to say, is that Israel, the US, and the four Arab countries want to form an axis against Iran.
“What they are preparing for behind the podium is a new cold war,” he said.

Palestinian Authority excluded​


Meanwhile, Palestinians were notable absentees in the summit.
The Biden administration has urged Israel and the Palestinians to take steps to reduce tensions and create conditions for eventually renewing peace talks. But it has made it clear that it has no immediate plans to press the sides to renew negotiations.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who heads a patchwork coalition of parties that have little in common, has said he opposes a Palestinian state and has no intention to restart peace talks. Instead, he has called for steps to improve economic conditions for the Palestinians to help reduce tensions and maintain calm.
Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim said for Palestinians, these talks “seem like a luxury” as long as they are under occupation.
“The discussions that Palestinians want on the table now are not discussions about diffusing tension or having better life conditions for Palestinians, but rather they want to engage in a peace process that ends the occupation and leads Palestinians towards a state,” she said, speaking from the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah.
Ibrahim went on to say that there is a lot of disappointment amongst Palestinians watching Arab nations normalize relations with Israel and attending meetings and summits there.
“There is a feeling that while the Arab nations are with the Palestinians, they feel betrayed by the Arab regimes,” she said.
Jordan’s King Abdullah, whose government declined to participate in the foreign ministers’ meeting, instead visited the Israeli-occupied West Bank in solidarity with the Palestinians.

Bunch of useless dictatorships announcing their loyalty to American axis of evil. Nothing to be taken seriously at all.

An important question begs for an answer, why are the Sauds absent there? Sauds are the most important backing force of Zionists in the region and sworn enemy of Iran. For sure, they didn't do it because of the Palestinians whom were called terrorists by the Sauds themselves.

I have only One answer to this, This only goes to show the importance of this Saudi lackey of Americans, they are the only ones who can affect the minds of Muslims in favor of American axis of evil in this region. A big Truth lies in this question.

They have love😍 in their eyes..not our business who they sleep with..😜😜

If the Emirati joker thinks that Iran would allow Zionist ships enter our Gulf and the Arabian sea, then they live in a parallel world. Every ship having, every moving thing having slightest connection to the Zionist entity will be shot with no second thought.

Bunch of loitering munitions above and under sea can do the job. It would be better for them to keep this show at this level, nothing more than a joke.

The UAE, Bahrain and Morocco are seeking to acquire the Israeli Arrow 3 anti-ballistic missile defense systems..

At least two of the three major defense companies and two small companies in Israel have already received inquiries about the purchase of Iron Dome and approval for a sale into the hands of the Israeli Ministry of Defense. According to a defense source, a large number of requests will be approved soon, and Israel is currently in discussions with the US administration, which was a party to the development of some of these systems.

Civil projects such as linking Gulf, Egyptian and Israeli gas to the Turkish pipeline to sell to Europe and building solar energy fields in Sinai were also raised at the foreign ministers' summit.

1. What a sad show. Arabs would rather sell their souls than fix their dictatorial governance structures & improve their countries & people to a level where apartheid state actually fears them.

2. Iran has been exporting instability for sectarian reasons. Arabs would not be lusting after Israeli weapons if Iran had not been such a threat. I hope that young Iranians see this dynamic & seek to change it.

3. An injustice perpetrated for a long time creates its own justification & gets accepted.

4. My heart cries for Palestinians. They are the bravest among Muslims and yet look at how they are betrayed by their own.

5. This will create pressure on Pakistan to accept & recognize Israel. If this happens, Pakistan would have forsaken the longest running policy stand that was taken by Q-e-A M. A. Jinnah before creation of Pakistan itself.

6. I hope the young Arabs realize how their leaders have sold their souls & decide to bring change.

7. As a silver-lining, one can only hope that Israelis realize that Arabs & Muslims are not bloodthirsty & that what they really want is for Palestinians to have their God-given rights. There is not much hope that Israel would change its apartheid, but that is all one can do.

Once mighty warrior who conquer the world over a simple idea of Tawheed and Muslim Ummah's unity and now behaving like this, we deserve everything... :(
Who are you talking about if I may enquire?

Sadly arabs and Iranians already asleep.
Pakistanis are into pir worship. They had someone arrive in the UK yesterday and they were touching his feet. Astagfarullah. We are a mess.

If Pakistan recognizes Israel it can lead to a major civil war worst than war on terror. We would overnight make Kashmiris, Iranians and afghans openly our enemies as well.
If Pakistan recognizes Israel, it would go against our claim to Kashmir and it would go against the very principles it was created on.
This one move could seriously lead to Pakistan breaking into many other tiny states.

Pakistanis are some of the most ignorant when it comes to Islam and this is coming from a Pakistani. Not all are but many maybe even majority, are jahils when it comes to Islam and openly commit shirk and bidah.

worst part is you try correct them and they label you “wahabi”

You are 100% correct.
It comes from reading quran in Arabic without meaning. Its come from not knowing the meaning of namaz. It come from blindly listen to molvi bs without question. It's comes from riwayat me likha hai??? Ask what riwayat no answer. Its crazy Its a mess and it's the vast majority including the well educated

Alot of people over-exaggerating:lol:.. Israel is a tiny country and poses no threat beyond it's boundaries but We seek other alliances and not to forget Israel is a US extension hence. Hence you do the math.

Removing the terrorist elements of the region is key by all means first and foremost but Israel falls short of threat or any in that category they pose zero threat because it lacks manpower and it is tiny. It has no future there by default hence there is nothing to hassle about there. This is also mutual and we need Israel's lobbying power nothing more it has no military capability here to change any reality on the ground on our behalf but we just need these lobbies to arrange a long term military alliance between us and the West in order to expel all common threats in the region that we share.

This is a bridge between us and the west in truth....

Having an entity that wants to picture itself an alternative image of us is unacceptable and poses long term security risk. Because the Jews aren't pretending to be someone except themselves and this is more like a enemy from the within and it is a perverted one
Looool this bridge is your end

Look at the land the isrealis claim? From the nile to the eupharates.
Look at their plans for Al aqsa and their temple.

You are either an Israeli or just really really some Arab with sand in his ears
