"Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister, Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, strongly condemned "Israel’s" refusal to allow an Arab ministerial delegation to visit the occupied West Bank, describing the decision as evidence of its “extremism and rejection of peace.”"
I don't know if this is a nothing burger, but some Gulf states are starting to get serious about the 2 states solution. Why?

May I add, the Gulf States have invested in Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners, which funds the construction of illegal Jewish settlements in the occupied Palestinian West Bank through Phoenix Financial Ltd.
So in my mind, Israelis should be careful not to piss off the Gulf States too much. It shows you what kind of Karen on steroids the Israelis are.
Idiots.

This is the same news item from Al Arabia (Saudi outlet). Israeli unnamed official:
"Abbas “intended to host in Ramallah a provocative meeting of foreign ministers from Arab countries to discuss the promotion of the establishment of a Palestinian state...Such a state would undoubtedly become a terrorist state in the heart of the Land of Israel"

Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE ministers condemned “Israel’s decision to ban the delegation’s visit to Ramallah [on Sunday] to meet with...Abbas”
"Israel controls the Palestinian territory’s borders and airspace" so it merrily banned the event from taking place
This is remarkable: 1st ever Gulf states visit to the PA in Ramallah and Israel bans it. I thought Israel wanted normalisation with them?

Full article: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/16/trumps-middle-east-trip-saudi-arabia-qatar-uae-go-all-out.html Kudos to Natasha Turak for her insightful report.

Saudi royalty and American billionaires were in the front row for a speech in Riyadh where President Donald Trump condemned what he called past U.S. interference in the wealthy Gulf states. Gone were the days when American officials would fly to the Middle East to give “you lectures on how to live, and how to govern your own affairs,” Trump said at a Saudi investment forum this week. #us #usa #news #minimarketonlineltd #America #trump #donaldtrump #SaudiArabia #Riyadh #GulfStates

U.S. foreign policy has long been controlled by money, incl pro-Israel money.

"And now the Gulf states are in on the game, more crudely & nakedly than ever before, as this plane shoes.

"And they’re certainly outspending AIPAC... that’s making AIPAC supporters panic."

„Israel’s plan to conquer Gaza and impose a new aid scheme threatens to prolong the war and weaponise the starving population’s most vital needs. Gulf Arab states have a chance to press the U.S. to put an end to the Israeli government’s endless escalations.“
