The main topic is expected to be the Iran nuclear deal and its danger to the region.
Palestinian terror groups are very angry. A group of them issued a statement that "the real threat to the Arab nation is only the Israeli threat, and any other threats are fabricated illusions from the United States and its ally Israel, and aim only to justify the establishment of an Arab-Israeli alliance as an extension of NATO."
While the summit shows how the Middle East has changed dramatically in the past couple of years, and proves how wrong the critics who shrugged the Abraham Accords aside have been.
Notably, the Palestinians were not invited. After decades of them setting the agenda for the region by acting as a veto for what all Arab nations can do, they have sunk into irrelevance.
A Palestinian news site quoted an Israeli official on their absence, saying, "relations with the Palestinians are not as they should be, and therefore the summit was limited to Israel and its Arab neighbors, whether new or old friends. It is not important for the Palestinians to be on the table in any summit meeting with Arab countries."
And this is true. Palestinians overplayed their hand time and time again, and the Arab nations have had enough. Palestinians have become what they fear most: they are irrelevant, after being the center of attention in the Arab world and the West.
The only concern is that they act like toddlers - and when toddlers don't get the attention they demand, they do whatever they need to do to gain that attention.
