“PERFID FRIENDS”
Has Israel changed its view of the Arabs? Why the
Zionist elite has not changed and it will be a matter of time before they
reveal what they have always been
By Ali Al-Najafi
Donald Trump's administration left many marks in the
domestic political life of the US but also in foreign policy. One of these is
undoubtedly the influence that he managed to exert on the Arab monarchies of
the Gulf so that they lower their guard and approach Israel. But the latter in
some cases were mere appearances. The already well-known secret relations
between Tel Aviv and Riyadh with which for years they annoyed their Yemeni,
Lebanese, Syrian and Iraqi brothers seem to have whitewashed with another of
the rich Gulf emirates such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This is how in September
2020 the so-called “Abrahamic Agreement” was signed.
As usually happens, there was a previous period of
time in which both parties established intense conversations under the
strictest confidentiality and that is that, beyond the apparently incredible
thing about this situation (Arab leaders talking with Israeli namesakes), the
Arab citizens of a foot do not forget the history and role of Israel in the
region and in particular the Palestinian cause and that is why (beyond what the
Israeli and Emirati media publish) a broad rejection persists in popular
sentiment.
It also does no harm to the global BDS political
movement against Israeli apartheid, as pro-Israeli supporters and media around
the globe try to show. In addition, there is something very important to
consider and that is that (as the French philosopher Alain De Banoist points
out) Israel is not the regional power that some suggest, but rather an
extension of Anglo-Saxon foreign policy since without the support of Washington
and London it would not have a chance. to exist in the Middle East.
That condition of pariah is what moves him to seek
contact with the Arabs beyond his recognized contempt for them. And although
with the pompous name “Abrahamic” they seek empathy with the Arab Semites, deep
down it is just a strategy and nothing more. It is a political agreement
between governments (among the political elite) and framed by financial,
economic and commercial interests that are only suitable for Emirati and
Israeli businessmen. But behind this there is a much more important interest
for Tel Aviv and that is, to have a foot in the Persian Gulf and off the coast
of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Clearly, the benefits of the strategic
association have a great interested party with expectations that are not good
for regional stability.
But beyond the media makeup with which this
relationship is presented, many Arab citizens and political leaders in the
region know that Israel is like the scorpion, it cannot deal with its nature
and as such, it does not lose its lethality by trusting it and when it has the
opportunity stung.
We could see this in mid-January when a remarkable and
powerful drone attack launched from Yemen by the Houthi resistance hit the UAE
when the Israeli president and his wife were on a visit to Abu Dhabi. Obviously
the media emphasized the Yemeni attackers and the damage they caused to the Abu
Dhabi Airport and the "Mussafah" industrial zone, but nobody asked
these questions: How and why the Yemeni Drones were able to cross the peninsula
without being detected by US CENTCOM and its Israeli partners? Who provides
these Drones to the Houthies?
Some sources do not hesitate to point out that Israel
would be the one who, through third parties, would be triangulating Drones and
other kinds of devices so that the Houthies maintain parity on the ground with
the disproportionate pro-Saudi coalition. Their objective? Maintain tension in
the region.
This has left a strange taste to the Emiratis.
Something here is not explained with simple logic. Why did the Americans -
partners with the Israelis - not warn the Emiratis of the ongoing attack?
Letting go is part of a black operation and that is why, it would not have been
a better time for it when the Israeli president was in the emirate. In
addition, they were well aware that the Israeli delegation would not be hit by
the attack and in the worst case, for Israel the president is someone
politically insipid and not indispensable.
On the other hand, if something happened to Herzog and
his wife, it would be the perfect excuse to reinforce their interference in the
entire peninsula. Considering this framework, the development of the next World
Cup in the emirate could be the ideal scenario to create a false flag for this
aspiration.
But this should not surprise anyone since Israel did
not change its tricks and its expansive plans for some signed papers. For
example, although he remains silent about many events that shake Lebanon and in
which he is strongly suspected of having an intervention in one way or another,
the facts end up showing that he is not a reliable actor. This is related to
the scandal that arose after the dismantling of an extensive Israeli espionage
network throughout Lebanon in January, something that the Lebanese already know
as a custom.
According to the information, the Lebanese ISF managed
to disrupt some 17 spy networks in the service of Israel, several of them
camouflaged as NGOs that employed unsuspecting Lebanese citizens who did not
know that they had actually been recruited by the Mossad.
These types of activities (espionage and information
gathering) often end in violent actions such as sabotage, bombings and
assassinations that are later presented by the Western media as issues of
internal political rivalry between Shiite Muslims and Christians. For Tel Aviv
(because Jerusalem is not the capital), Lebanon continues to be one of its most
coveted objectives, in part because of the obsession that the Zionists have
with the resistance organization "Hezbollah", an enemy that has
proven to be much more organized and lethal than any Arab state.
As we have been seeing, Israel, in addition to these
interferences and collaborating with Saudi Arabia against Yemen, is operating
with great interest in the Horn of Africa with a view to recruiting officials
from the governments of that strategic region for commercial transit and little
by little shortly, gain direct access over the Suez Canal in Egypt.
That is why this pact with the Arab monarchies is not
surprising and much less does it mean that Israel gains legitimacy in its
regional claims
