“Relations with Israel have gone beyond normalization. The relations have reached a very warm level,” commented Abdulhameed Al-Ghobain to BBC Arabic.
“We care about national interests, not the Palestinians,” said Saudi Arabian writer and political commentator Abdulhameed Al-Ghobain recently during an interview with BBC Arabic.
Al-Ghobain explained that the majority of Saudis acknowledge that the Palestinians “have lost” but are “emotionally” incapable of taking actions in their best interest to resolve the conflict with Israel.
“[Our] public has turned against the Palestinians in general. They have not contributed anything,” Al-Ghobain added.
