Oil Sheiks: The Jews Ain't so Bad

If reader(s) are wondering why we haven't been commenting on the ongoing coalition talks in Israel it's becuase we're bored by the whole thing.

For what it's worth the parties are deadlocked, Netanyahu is closer to indictment and he just had to put down a revolt within Likud. Our sense is Bibi is finished. But who knows.

However, this from the Times of Israel is kind of interesting:

Foreign Minister Israel Katz on Sunday confirmed that he has been advancing non-aggression treaties with several Arab countries in the Gulf, a “historic” démarche he said could end the conflict between Jerusalem and those states.  “Recently I have been promoting, with the backing of the prime minister, a diplomatic initiative to sign ‘non-aggression agreements’ with the Arab Gulf states,” Katz wrote on Twitter. 

Iran is so bellicose they've driven the Jews and the oil-sheiks together. A messianic doomsday cult of a regime trying to get nukes will do that. Well done, Tehran, that's some first rate diplomacy.

And so we see the groundwork being laid for an Israeli strike on Iran. It's almost as if someone has read Israel Strikes, or something.

Truth be told, the Gulf State's Juden Hass was always pro-forma. Going to war with Israel or supporting the Palis would be work, and no Saudi wants that. Besides, Nobody in the Arab world actually likes the Palestinians. Nobody.
