JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel could be open to future cooperation on missile defence with Gulf Arab states that share its concerns about Iran, a senior Israeli official said on Tuesday...
...Jitters about Iran were a driver of a U.S.-brokered pact on Sept. 15 formalising relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain for the first time. Saudi Arabia has encouraged the rapprochement, while holding off on having its own bilateral ties with Israel for now.

Israel is walking right into a trap. These agreements are all about the arabs getting qualitative parity.They will spin on a dime and turn on the Jews in solidarity with all mad mo followers
Not necessarily. The Arab gulf states are going to buy missile defense from someone. If they get it from the Russians or the Chinese, they may very well turn against Israel. If they buy it from Israel, Israel controls the back doors.
There is nothing like a common enemy to force allies together. If Iran weren't so belligerent, Israel would have to invent an Iran.
It certainly is President Donald John Trump’s “fault!” :)
Demi President Obama will instruct his puppet to sabotage all Israeli Arab peace agreements. Real President Jarrett will not abide her beloved Iranians second tier status.
