Israelis to participate in Bahrain entrepreneurship conference, upsetting Arabs



At least three Israelis will be speaking at the Global Entrepreneurship Conference in Bahrain later this month, upsetting Arabs who are against normalization with Israel and putting them further on the defensive.
There are reports that Israeli Economy Minister Eli Cohen was added to the list of participants on the first day of the conference.

The Bahrain parliament issued a statement denouncing the conference for allowing Israelis, saying "The House of Representatives has condemned the hosting of Israeli speakers at the Global Entrepreneurship Congress and the support of the Palestinian cause will continue to be our priority," the House of Representatives said in a statement posted on its official Facebook page.

Kuwait announced Sunday its withdrawal from the conference because of the participation of the Israeli delegation.

The cases of Arab "normalization" with Israel are accelerating and the frustration from the old school Israel haters is increasing.

It is fun to watch.
