(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Israeli regime’s premier Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed delight after Saudi Arabia barred Iranian pilgrims from performing the annual Hajj pilgrimage this year.
Netanyahu praised the Hajj program by Saudi regime with the slogan “Hajj message of peace”.
In an interview with The Times of Israel newspaper, Netanyahu claimed that “this practical step will improve global peace between Islam and other religions, particularly the Jewish. Peace between Israel and the Arabs will be realized soon".
The Israeli regime’s premier added that, “We don’t hide how pleased we are about absence of Iranian pilgrims in the Islamic Hajj. We are sure that Iran is the main obstacle to peace in the Middle East over the past few decades".
In the end Netanyahu referred to the clear outstanding disputes and the possibility of resolving the conflict between Tel Aviv and Riyadh by Saudi’s new policy, and added "Hajj is the way of worship and a civilized behavior and should not be tainted with political slogans and sectarianism.”
Zionists, Al Saud Share Hatred towards Islamic Iran
The Israeli Zionists and the Al (House of) Saud have salient commonalities which explain Netanyahu’s happiness following the banning of Iranians from performing Hajj which is an important pillar of Islam. Israeli Zionists and Saudis share mutual hatred towards the Islamic Republic of Iran which has been at the forefront of fighting for the liberation of Palestinian territories occupied by Israel and especially the Al Aqsa Mosque, the first qibla (prayer direction) of Muslims and the third holiest site in Islam after Mecca and Medina. Iran also calls for the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, literally occupied by the Al Saud clan, to be managed by all Islamic countries.
Saudi rulers, who have obstructed Iranian pilgrims from path of Allah (Hajj) this year believe their survival on the throne of oppression is dependent on defending the arrogant powers of the world and alliances with Zionism and the US. Thus it is not surprising that Netanyahu has expressed delight after the Saudi rulers heeded the Zionist-American order to prevent Iranian pilgrims from performing Hajj.
By expressing support to the illegal and the un-Islamic Saudi decision to bar Iranian Muslims from performing Hajj, Netanyahu was cementing Israel’s firm and hitherto secret ties with the Saudi Arabian regime.
In any case, why would Netanyahu not thank his Saudi friends who have not only barred Iranians from the Path of Allah, but have also gone a step further by hiring an Israeli firm to make electronic bracelets for millions of pilgrims this year?
The Israeli linked G4S security company has actually been providing ‘security’ services for the Saudi regime during Hajj for several years, but this year it got more entrenched after the banning of Iranian Pilgrims.
Three Holiest Islamic Sites Occupied by Al Saud, Israeli Alliance
Occupation of Palestine is the most important issues in the Islamic World today due to the fact that, the Al Aqsa Mosque is occupied by the Israeli regime. Therefore, the Israeli regime is the number one enemy of Muslims. Now, it is quite ironic that the Saudi rulers have branded themselves, ‘the custodian of the two holy Islamic sites’ are being praised by the occupier of the third holiest Islamic site! No doubt the three holiest Islamic sites are now under occupation by the Al Saud- Israel alliance.
The Saudi ruling dynasty has been in bed with the Zionists for a very long time. Now the secret ties have become public knowledge and both sides brag about their friendly ties. The ties between the current Saudi King and Israeli premier Netanyahu are special and extraordinary. In May, a member of Israel's Knesset (parliament) has revealed that Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud helped finance the election campaign of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 2015.
Citing a massive leak of confidential documents dubbed the “Panama Papers,” Isaac Herzog, who is the chairman of the Israeli Labor party said, “In March 2015, King Salman has deposited eighty million dollars to support Netanyahu’s campaign via a Syrian-Spanish person named Mohamed Eyad Kayali.”
In the recent past, Netanyahu has on several occasions talked of a budding relationship between Israel and Arab countries.
In March, Netanyahu said Israel's relations with regional Arab countries are “dramatically warming” in what analysts said was an acknowledgement of behind-the-scenes ties.
Moshe Ya’alon, Israel’s war minister, in February pointed to open channels between the regime and Arab states.
Ya’alon said he was unable to shake hands with Arab officials in public due to the “sensitive” political realities. The Israeli minister later publicly shook the hand of Saudi Prince Turki bin Faisal al-Saud, who himself has openly met with a number of Israeli officials in the past.
The Al Saud ruling clan is ready to have special ties with the Israelis, the illegal occupiers of Palestine, but not with Islamic Iran which champions for the legitimate rights and aspirations of Muslims and oppressed masses worldwide
