This historic flight to send humanitarian aid to the Palestinians by the UAE spotlights the strategic political infighting between the Mid-East’s two largest sectarian competitors for area dominance.
Both sides battling for control are clearly exploiting the Palestinians, using them to facilitate the Shiite-Sunni power struggle.
Clearly Iran is facilitating the confrontation by promoting antisemitism and its anti-Israel agenda.
Today, some Persian Gulf states have committed the biggest treachery against their own history and the history of the Arab world. They have betrayed #Palestine by supporting Israel. Will the nations of these states tolerate their leaders’ betrayal?

Here, the Saudis address the Palestinian issue straight on, pointing out a more pragmatic analysis.
The world is finally tiring of the ‘Palestinian issue.’ State leaders have long known the Palestinian leadership will never make Peace with Israel, because “those in the know” have seen how their financial assistance has only made Fatah, PA, PLO and Hamas leaders become mega-millionaires and billionaires while their constituents receive nothing substantial.
The ‘Palestinian issue’ is merely a business run & owned by terrorists in $5k tailored suits and wearing $14k watches.
