A new report claims that Saudi Arabia has conveyed messages to the US expressing hope for a Muslim Brotherhood-led government in Israel, while also stating readiness to discuss joining the Abraham Accords on two conditions: the replacement of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the reversal of Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's policies in Judea and Samaria, according to Israeli media.
According to a single report, Saudi Arabia has conveyed messages to the United States expressing hope for a Muslim Brotherhood-led government in Israel, while also stating its readiness to discuss joining the Abraham Accords on two conditions: the replacement of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the reversal of Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's policies in Judea and Samaria. The new claim adds a dimension not present in an earlier report on the same conditions, which The Zioneer covered at 19:25 Jerusalem based on a report by Israel Hayom. The earlier report did not mention the Muslim Brotherhood angle. The Saudi conditions, if confirmed, would represent a significant shift in the Kingdom's approach to normalization with Israel, tying progress to internal Israeli political changes. The report is based on a single source and has not been independently corroborated.
