Despite Escalation of Israel’s Crimes Against Palestinians, Saudi Regime May Normalize
News - World: Brett McGurk, President Biden's senior Middle East adviser, is expected to travel to Saudi Arabia this week to meet with senior Palestinian officials and discuss a potential Palestinian component of a possible mega-deal between the U.S., Saudi Arabia and Israel, according to Axios.
The Biden administration said that it may reach a deal with Saudi Arabia that includes normalization between the kingdom and Israel.
On Wednesday, Saudi Arabia reportedly offered to resume financial aid to the cash-strapped Palestinian Authority (PA) in a bid to gain Ramallah’s support for its efforts to normalize relations with Israel.
Citing unnamed Saudi officials, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman first made the proposal in April, when Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas visited the kingdom.
Recently, reports emerged of an agreement on the general outline of an Israeli-Saudi normalization pact.
Under the deal, Riyadh would secure American backing for a civilian nuclear program, as well as access to advanced weapons. In exchange, the kingdom would take major steps to distance itself from China and Israel would allow an independent Palestinian state.
It is believed that the normalization deals with the Israeli entity encouraged it to commit more crimes against the Palestinian people.
Recently, Israel has broken a 30-year record for the number of Palestinians kept behind bars under its administrative detention policy, which allows the regime to indefinitely imprison Palestinians without formal charges.
New data obtained by the Israeli human rights group Hamoked from the prison service showed the number of administrative detainees had reached the 1,264 mark. The figure was 1,108 in March 2003, during the Second Intifada.
