The Israeli team was led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s national security adviser, Meir Ben-Shabbat, and the UAE was represented by Yousef al-Otaiba, the country’s envoy to the US, who maintains close ties with Emirati Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Persian Gulf Arab states and Israel have agreed to advance a "historic" alliance no matter what happens to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Channel 12 TV reports.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n

In a tweet on December 21, UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed pointed to what he called “Islam’s reformation,” adding that, “an Arab-Israeli alliance is taking shape in the Middle East."<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n

The tweet was responded by the Israeli premier a day later, urging Abu Dhabi to remain reticent over the matter for now.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

“The UAE Foreign Minister, Abdullah bin Zayed, spoke about a new alliance in the Middle East: An Israeli-Arab alliance. … I can only say that this remark is the result of the ripening of many contacts and efforts, which at the moment, and I emphasize at the moment, would be best served by silence," Netanyahu said at the start of a weekly cabinet meeting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\"Netanyahu<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n

The UAE foreign minister tweets an article supporting an alliance between Arab countries and Israel, receiving a brisk welcome from prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n

The UAE-Israel alliance comes as no surprise in the wake of the Muslim country’s support for the US so-called “peace” initiative between Israel and Palestinians, dubbed “deal of the century.”<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Rejected by Palestinians and the world’s Muslim population, the deal recognizes Jerusalem al-Quds as the “undivided capital” of the Zionist regime.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

It also amounts to violation of the fundamental rights of the Palestinians by disregarding UN resolutions and international law.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Washington has previously voiced support for closer ties between its allies in West Asia, namely the Israeli regime, United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

As a senior White House official put it, "while the United States would certainly welcome expanding relationships between our critical allies and partners in the Middle East, we’re not going to detail private diplomatic conversations, nor do we have anything to announce."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
