RIYADH/JERUSALEM - A historic meeting between Israel’s prime minister and Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has sent a strong signal to allies and enemies alike that the two countries remain deeply committed to containing their common foe Iran.
Last Sunday’s covert meeting in the Saudi city of Neom, confirmed by Israeli officials but publicly denied by Riyadh, conveyed a coordinated message to U.S. President-elect Joe Biden that Washington’s main allies in the region are closing ranks.
It was the first publicly confirmed visit to Saudi Arabia by an Israeli leader and a meeting that was unthinkable until recently as the two countries do not have formal diplomatic relations. But it underlines the depth of the two countries’ concerns about Iran, and shows how opposition to Tehran is bringing about a strategic realignment of countries in the Middle East.
“It’s Iran, Iran, Iran,” Israeli cabinet minister Tzachi Hanegbi told Israel’s Army Radio when asked about the visit. “It is very, very important to create the axis which isolates Iran.”
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu both enjoyed strong support from U.S. President Donald Trump and championed his “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran.
They fear Biden will adopt policies on Iran similar to those adopted during Barak Obama’s U.S. presidency which strained Washington’s ties with its traditional regional allies.
Biden has said he will rejoin the international nuclear pact with Iran that Trump quit in 2018 - and work with allies to strengthen its terms - if Tehran first resumes strict compliance.

The return of ISIS
Gee look at that, it’s the democrats who “strained ties with our traditional allies.” Who would have thought.
Nobody is sending Biden any messages. The world knows this guy has an operative IQ of about 60. And fading fast. If the dems manage to steal this election, and we’re praying this will not happen, then BHO and his gang will be in charge.
IF you become President and IF you even breathe any change, you may not like the aftermath
Agreed.
Israel, Saudi Arabia, and UAE are not sending deep state leftist puppets Harris/Biden a message, the message is being sent to both the RUS/CCP backed “Shia Crescent”, AND to the anti-Israel US global socialist deep state, which are the puppet masters.
..................
It's not about sending Biden a message, it's about formulating a regional defense against Iran. Should he take office Biden can recognize that, or pursue his former pro Iranian policies. There's a strong message there, but no assurance Biden will recognize it. Besides, what's in it for Hunter?
At this point, there doesn't need to be much in it for Hunter. The Presidency is a gold mine in and of itself, so there's not as much need to pay family members as side-bribes. If I were Joe, I'd have my ghost writer busy right now on the book of memoirs. It will be a huge seller if Joe gets elected and leaves office, dead or alive.
Trump should strike multiple targets in Iran with cruise missiles and dump a war in Biden’s lap before leaving office.
That will allow Saudi Arabia and Israel and the UAE to enter and then prosecute the destruction of the Iranian regime
The Climate Czar will send Iran money to combat global warming that will purchase weapons to kill Israel and Saudi Arabia
Biden’s ‘team’ will do their best to destroy the treaties between Israel and the Arab countries signed during the past year. They are too dedicated to a “peaceful” elimination of Israel by Hamas, Fatah, the Palestinians and their Iranian backers.
ISIS never went away.
Speaking of ISIS fighters I see that the Saviors of Christendom Syrian President Assad the butcher and Communist Russian Czarist Putin are arming their European cells with Syrian chemical bio weapons.
they’re also arming up Al Qaeda too in addition,to Hezbollah islamist nazi’s.
But but how can this be? Could have sworn ISIS Jihadists were created by the Zionist JOOOOOS!!! with the help of John McCain and Obama who thought of it while smoking up doobies eating cheese pizza with homeboy Epstein on da Island./S
The Anti Israel Anti semitism on this forum is just getting beyond disgusting.
Correct
Cruise missiles along with major cyber attacks and a covert operation style protests against the Iranian regime.
Israel should invade Lebanon annex major parts along the border while taking out major Hezbollah military targets.
Spot on
Almost guaranteed at this meeting that Bibi discussed with the Saudis the planned hit on the Iranian nuke scientist that came days later. \
The extra good news is that the discussion didn’t leak. That also might have been part the reason Israel used that remote machine gun; if someone in the Saudi regime had leaked it to the Iranians and the Iranians then set a trap, that way no Mossad agents would be caught.
