Sudan is to normalise relations with Israel, US President Donald Trump says - the latest in a series of Arab League countries to do so.
There had been growing speculation Sudan would announce ties in return for being removed from the US list of state sponsors of terrorism.
Sudan had been a foe of Israel since the latter's founding in 1948.
It comes weeks after similar moves by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Bahrain.
The two Gulf states became the first in the Middle East to recognise Israel in 26 years.
Jordan signed a peace deal with Israel in 1994, and Egypt in 1979. Mauritania, an African Arab League member, recognised Israel in 2009 but severed ties 10 years later.
The growing number of Arab countries formalising relations with Israel has been condemned by the Palestinians, who see it as a betrayal of their cause.

Kushner in Oval with Trump says this will help reduce extremism, terrorism, antisemitism."
But you have to agree, there was a huge need to talk about tthe he far-more-important subject of "Climate Change"...
The Bush Crime Family is not pleased.
Liberals don’t ever see how it’s important for the US to have allies everywhere, especially in the ME and also to have a ME in which, countries are stable, free and friendly with each other and with us.
Liberals thrive on discord and hate.
Saudi Arabia is going to be next.
Dems(And some GOP establishment commies) want endless wars..

Peace is not as profitable as endless wars.
I spoke to a former Sundanese national a few years back and he said that Bin Laden was responsible for bringing the theology that started the persecution of Christians by Muslims in Sudan.
Mauritania, an African Arab League member, recognised Israel in 2009 but severed ties 10 years later.
DNC spin -- Egypt in 1979 (Carter was prez), Jordan in 1994 (Clinton was prez), Mauritania in 2009 (Obama was fake prez) until 2019 (Trump was and is President).
Partisan Media Shills update.
Too bad he couldn’t have announced it last night.
Yeah, the deal has obviously been done. Almost certainly some dirty pool from Democrats on this one.
You have been reading my post on the web haven't ya ;-)
Seriously, I have been saying they will do it just before election day, somewhere between 10/31 thru 11/2.
I can see the Saudi's giving him a gift if you will, it's a gut feel thing...
Thanks for responding to my post.
Interesting ... certainly plausible.
