Re: Israel and the UAE
Can't see it working .Flogging, stoning and even amptutations still committed in UAE . No freedom of speech, news is censored and women are subordinate to men. The government has been accused of widespread arrest, torture and disappearances of its citizens.
Trump always hungry for oil, UAE is an oil rich country. US are big buddies and eager to sell weapons, particularly in a recession . UAE is not a democracy along with other Arab nations... but US has its air base there, used for attacks in Yemen. So this half hearted 'arranged' peace option, is not even worth mentioning.
I see it as the next move towards antagonizing Iran and Russia, now that Lebanon has succumbed to ruin. Nothing to do with wanting peace in the region it's all about oil , gas and land and now the Syrian gas and oil won't be the bounty after 11 yrs of war , there are huge oil and gas reserves in the Levant Basin, which includes Gaza and West Bank. aka Palestinian land, to be found.
However, I'm quite sure someone will jump up and tell me I'm wrong, but thats only their point of view.
Oh and whilst Im at it, don't anyone dare call me anti-semite . This chidlish ploy to call people names in an effort to quieten them will never work. I amongst ohters can say what I want against Isreali policies, the Government and Netanyahu. If you knew what members for the Jewish Voice for Labour also thought, you might just see a different side to the blind side.

Re: Israel and the UAE
Never mind 'so what' . Hundreds of thousands of people have been slaughtered due to this war for oil and gas.Will relations between UAE and Israel now give Israel permission to use US air base in UAE and the ability to block Iranian oil coming through the Persian Gulf ? I bet it will !
