    Tomorrow? Of course not. Inside the decade? Absolutely. Saudi-Israel relations are thawing as we speak, and that hostility basically dates since the foundation of the modern Israeli state. If Israel and Iran suddenly find themselves on the same side of geopolitics (i.e., if both of them are American enemies because apparently a lot of Lemmings think we should break diplomatic relations with Israel altogether, meaning that Israel is on the side of China, Russia, etc.), then anything is possible.

    What would Bibi’s alternative be? Go it alone?

      Israel just attacked Iran, who then responded by shooting a bunch of rockets at them literally just days ago. I also don’t think Iran is going to back Israel while they’re slaughtering a bunch of Palestinians. Furthermore Bibi isn’t going to be around forever and it remains to be seen if the rest of the Israeli leadership follows in his footsteps once he’s gone.

        You’re right. Forging any kind of working relationship between Israel and Iran would be extremely challenging. I guess maybe Israel and the US should try to find a path forward as allies.

          I see no issue with forging a path forward as allies provided they end their genocide and occupation. I mean, what else is there really to be done short of that?
