IS U.S. PREPARING TO THROW ISRAEL UNDER THE BUS?
Sacrifice Israel For Arab Coalition Against Iran (BackSpin)
Orly Azoulay reports from the Riyadh summit that leaders want Israel to pay a steep price for a "moderate Arab coalition" against Iran:
Diplomatic sources at the conference told me that behind the scenes the following move is being consolidated: The US has realized that it is losing its power due to its tendency for unilateralism towards Israel and has decided to get closer to Saudi Arabia so that it would consolidate a moderate Arab coalition.
However, just like in Washington, there are no free meals in Riyadh either: In order for the Saudis to enter this process, the Americans assured them that they would exert pressure on Israel to make difficult decisions and to reach a compromise that would enable the Palestinians to establish an independent state. Thus, the US would be granted a type of Arab umbrella for a diplomatic or military campaign against Iran, whereas Saudi Arabia would be able to boast before the Arab world that it had succeeded in bringing about an Israeli compromise.
