Not sure how noteworthy this is.
-Turki Al-Faisal hasn’t been the Intel chief in over 20 years, and has always been a bit more anti-Israel than the Saudi government itself. (IIRC he argued that Oct 7th had achieved long term goals for Palestinians)
-Saudi-Israel relations are in many ways normalized already, just not officially so. To my understanding there is a lot of bilateral cooperation especially when it comes to intel. The Saudis and the Gulf states generally see Iran (and its allies and proxies) as the predominant threat in the region – so they share a common set of enemies.
3). Saudi probably doesn’t officially normalize relations with Israel until the establishment of a Palestinian state. This is true ( imo), but this has been the case for a very long time.
Seriously, am i the only one being tired of middle ages mentality theocracies like KSA and Qatar (which stone people to death just because they’re gay or opposing their beliefs), lecturing Israel all of a sudden for „being normal“?
„Why can’t you just be normal“ – Saudi Arabia probably
