President Trump made bringing Saudi Arabia and other countries into the Abraham Accords with Israel a top foreign policy goal. Israel's move shows how far off that is.
The diplomatic dispute underscores how isolated Israel has become internationally after 19 months of war in Gaza.
What’s Driving This news? Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan organized the visit of Arab and Muslim foreign ministers to Ramallah as part of a Saudi diplomatic initiative to push for international recognition of a Palestinian state.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman PERSONALLY SUPPORTED the trip, which was also intended to show support for the embattled Palestinian Authority.
The delegation was to arrive on Sunday in 2 helicopters from Jordan and meet Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah, Palestinian officials said.
In order to enter the occupied West Bank, the DELEGATION NEEDS APPROVAL from the Israeli government.
The Israeli government debated the issue and decided on Friday to BLOCK IT.
So what are they saying?
A senior Israeli official told reporters that the Palestinian Authority intended to host "a DEFIANT MEETING" of Arab foreign ministers for a discussion aimed at promoting the establishment of a Palestinian state.
"Such a state would certainly become a terrorist state in the heart of the Land of Israel.
Israel will NOT COOPERATE with moves designed to harm Israel and its security. The Palestinian Authority must stop violating its agreements with Israel on all levels," the Israeli official said.Reading Between the lines: In mid-June, Saudi Arabia and France will hold an international conference at UN headquarters in New York in support of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
France and Saudi Arabia have been pushing countries to recognize a Palestinian state in conjunction with the conference.
Blocking the Arab delegation is a signal of opposition from the Israeli government toward this initiative.
State of play: Israel's relations with many Arab countries have been deteriorating since the current right-wing government assumed office in Dec. 2022, and in particular as the death toll and humanitarian crisis in Gaza have grown.
Earlier this week, the UAE summoned Israel's ambassador to its foreign ministry for an unusual dressing down.
An Emirati official said the meeting was "extremely tough" and the ambassador was given angry messages to send back to Netanyahu.
"You know you have a problem when the UAE calls you into the principal's office. It's not because you were tardy to class," the Emirati official said.
What’s next? STAY TUNED. SATURDAY GOING INTO SUNDAY COULD GET FAIRLY EXPLOSIVE
Not only on the political scene. But on the military front as well.
The world is beginning to see that Israel is NOT a country that wants to see peace.
At least in their minds, they are quickly seeing that Israel Is not interested in the “Peace Plan” that the world is offering.
