The growing Middle East alliance among states aligned against Iran, spearheaded by Israel, seems to be frozen in its tracks by the sudden thawing of ties between Riyadh and Tehran.
So what does it mean for the geopolitics of the region, and does this mean a Saudi-Israel normalization is even less likely to occur?
Sima Shine, head of the Iran program at the Institute for National Security Studies, discusses all this, as well as what Riyadh’s motives for the rapprochement might have been to begin with.

Not good
Great analysis.
Maybe the Saudi's general philosophies will rub off on Iran.
Israel is the main loser, that NuttyYahoo guy is obsessed to isolate Iran which happens to be a major power in Middle East . He tried to suck up to Saudis to accomplish his crooked ambition but didn’t realize Saudis are scared of Iran and need Iran to resolve the Yemeni Issue. And if NuttyYahoo or anyone else in Israel thinks they can become more friendly with Saudis and expand on that worthless Abraham accord they are day dreaming big time.
Biden? You’re talking as if he were an intelligent person.
Zionist cry hard 😭
I see j3ws worried….
How can you give Pakistan bad name and give socool Israel the right you full
Israeli fear start up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Iran can arm the whole middle east with sophisticated weapons, everyone knows that
Arab Countries will never attack Iran, be certain about that, Arab countries will never side with Israel against Iran 🇮🇷,that wishful thinking will never materialise
So is there peace in Yemen now?
Saudi aside from lack of US support have learnt a harsh lesson that it is MUCH easier to cause chaos than it is to maintain status quo.
Iran got NONE of the negative PR for the Yemen crisis. When Aramco was hit they faced global embarasment. Not to mention being bordered with both Iraq and Yemen both who had iranian backed militias made the Saudis keenly aware of their vulnerability.
Yes Saudi could wage war against Iran but Iran can withstand far more chaos. It has been invaded by an Arab not long ago suffering millions of deaths but didn't lose land… They've been under global sanctions, subject to US programs supporting protests, Israel assassinating their top scientists, cyberwarfare attacks targeting their infrastructure and throughout have maintained control over their population.
It's just not worth the risk for Saudi. FINALLY they've stopped listening to the UAE and being diplomatic dumbasses
Watch out Israel 🇮🇱
deTANTE not deTENTE
