Middle East: Saudis Murder & Dismember Washington Post Contributor

Saudi crown prince sending assassins into Canada now. Thanks pubs!
 
 
 

I was wondering about this. How big a deal is it? Did I miss the UAE or Bahrain spending a bunch of time trying to attack Israel? I thought the big players in the region, at least in terms of messing with Israel, were Syria, Iran, Palestine, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon.

I'm happy to be wrong if this is a major milestone, I just don't get why it is.
 
Good that countries are acknowledging Israel as a country. They're also two countries which have no real history with Israel and plenty of economical incentives to normalize relations, so not sure it's much of a game changer or breakthrough.

But the sand is full of peace!

This is basically what the Palestinians are saying about the events.
