Media Take Note: Israel On The Cusp of Historic Peace With Saudi Arabia

Rumours have grown increasingly loud in recent months that a possible normalization agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia may be close at hand, and over the last few days, that looks likelier than ever.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in September that they are “at the cusp” of a historic peace with the Saudi Kingdom, and Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told a news interviewer that his country was moving “closer” towards peace with the Jewish state.

While headlines often focus on conflict, the biggest news in Israel today is the country’s potential peace with the Middle East’s largest economy, and that’s worthy of news coverage.
