A senior Arab royal whistleblower, speaking anonymously to Middle East Monitor on Tuesday evening, that Israel is secretly working with the UAE to undermine Saudi Arabia’s role as the Gulf’s key powerbroker, describing deep rivalries and covert struggles among Gulf states.
The source alleged that regional unity is largely a façade, with shifting alliances, growing repression of dissidents abroad, and Israeli efforts to reshape the balance of power following normalization deals.
"The Saudis have been too slow to support Israel and normalize, so the Israelis are now keen to change the power dynamics in the Middle East,” the source added.
