If you want in on a little secret, none of those countries care either. Jordan and Egypt aren't letting Palestinians in, and the Saudi's have been working with Israel before the war.
Like everywhere else in the world, it's all about self-interest.

Sidebar for serious American politics post…
Been watching the Gym Jordan debacle all day and just losing it that the new, galaxy brain Republican defense is that the house is actually in turmoil not because of Matt Gaetz and the seven psychopaths he drug along to oust McCarthy, but it was actually all the doing of 208 democrats. The same sort of “it was actually Pelosi who caused January 6th” insanity and people lap it right up. The alternate realities they create are works of art.
Alright back to more important things.

Like everywhere else in the world, it's all about self-interest. Knock it off with the condescending bullshit. The Saudis have changed their minds before. Iran and Saudi Arabia discussing the situation is unprecedented in recent times and governments aren’t the Muslim world. Your apinions are based on the status quo of the last few years and not the urgency of the current situation. |

Declaring that people or institutions always act in their self-interest raise more questions than it answers. It’s basically a meaningless statement dressed up as a truism.

Everyone knew he was going to side with Israel no matter what, to think these countries are operating differently because of a statement is silly. |

egypt / jordan arent letting palestinians in because theyre fucking poor and letting that many refugees in would destroy their economy / social welfare. have you seen how europeans reacted about accepting refugees despite having robust economies / massive social safety net programs? what kind of delulu shit are you on thinking jordan / egypt could even TRY to take people in without dooming themselves?

Are you fucking serious right now? Holy shit dude. Btw, have you seen how europeans reacted to Ukrainian refugees and opened their doors? That stuff in the mid 2010s was all racism James, the fact I need to point this out to you is just wild. |

Western Europeans have, historically, always opened their arms and hearts to Eastern Europeans. In fact, why, I can’t think of a single time they haven’t! |

It’s not a single statement, it’s a trip into a war zone to show solidarity and victim blaming instead of a nuanced approach. Do you think that Arab leaders called off their meeting on a whim? Image goes a long way. |

So if Biden didn't go to Israel, there would have been a meeting between Arab leaders and everything would then be okay? Like I dunno how to tell you this, but it's a bit too late to have a nuanced approach, it's time to horse your wagons and show where you lie in the sand.
I'm not saying this is the right thing either, I'm just saying they did what's expected of Israel's biggest ally.

Damn, I didn't realise I had become some autistic dudes obsession. If anyone cares, I deleted the post because I realised that I didn't want to keep arguing with twil. The post was just a recent tweet saying that Egypt is letting US aid into Palestine through it's borders, and that 20 trucks worth of aid is a joke.
Now I'll go back to ignoring narc.

OSINT on Twitter is getting muddy with the hospital drone strike. It’s getting harder to discern propaganda from legit information right now. It’s worse than the Ukraine conflict.
Everything looks really bleak right now.
