Saudi Arabia is playing its renewed ties with Iran, China and Russia against that of the United States.

Behind closed doors, the Saudis want to use Israel’s knowledge and technological developments to turn the country around.

Israeli official responds: We want peace with Saudi Arabia, but won’t be swayed to American ultimatums.

“When we come to talk about peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia, Jerusalem and the holy places will be at the heart of the agenda.”

The Iran-Saudi Arabia deal has little to do with Israel, but much to do with the struggle for global hegemony between China and the US.

The new Iran-Saudi agreement is seen as a warning sign that division in Israel leads to the strengthening of the Jewish state’s enemies.

Iran remains the heart of Shia Islam, and Saudi Arabia the custodian of Sunni Islam. Not even China can make the two warring factions trust one another.

Top PLO officials hail blow to Netanyahu government and say it’s clearly time to abandon America as an honest peace broker.

As Saudi Arabia’s dynamic new leader enacts sweeping reforms, he’s clearly not shackled by concern for the Palestinian cause.
