Alwaght- The Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is using influential figures in the kingdom to prepare the public opinion to accept official ties with the Israeli regime.
Saudi internet activists say the country's 32-year-old crown prince is pursuing a cohesive plan made up from several steps in a bid to achieve his goal.
The plan will involve relying on journalists and activists who are gradually propagating on both mainstream media outlets and social media about normalizing ties with the Israeli regime.
“Khat Al-Balda” Twitter account, believed to be run by figures opposing to Saudi regime, revealed Bin Salman is also resorting to influential clerics to convince both Saudi and Arab public on having normal and official ties with Tel Aviv. The crown prince meanwhile, is preparing what it called an internet army in a bid to hit back at all those who oppose normalization.
The plan also aims at defaming the image of resistance against the Israeli regime, as well as the image of Palestinian people.
On Saturday Israeli regime's representative to the United Nations Danny Danon has admitted that Tel Aviv has diplomatic connections and talks with no less than a dozen states in the Arab world.
On November 14, Lebanon’s al-Akhbar daily published a secret letter from Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, in which a plan to normalize ties with Israel despite “risks” of a public backlash was mentioned.
“I have the honor to submit to you the draft of the plan to establish relations between the kingdom and the State of Israel, based on the strategic partnership agreement with the United States of America, which was discussed with the secretary of state,” Jubeir is alleged to have written. The mere reference of the Tel Aviv regime as “State of Israel” already marks a break with decade-long policy by most Arab League states to not officially recognize Israel as a legitimate state.
Arab states and especially Saudi Arabia is warming up to the Israeli regime at the expense of Palestinians who are struggling to liberate their lands, particularly the al-Aqsa Mosque-the third holiest site in Islam, currently under the occupation of the Israelis.
