Saudi openness transcends all boundaries and drifts toward the Jews
The Saudi openness in many areas is drifting like a huge torrent. There are no barriers to it, and it transcends all borders. ....In the Friday sermon delivered by the imam and preacher of the Grand Mosque in Mecca, Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, in which he discussed the duty of dealing well with the Jews, and how the Messenger Muhammad (may God’s prayers and peace be upon him) was kind to his Jewish neighbor.Then came the fatwa of the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Abdulaziz Al-Sheikh, that fighting or killing Israelis in the precincts of Al-Aqsa Mosque is not permissible according to Islamic law, and that the Hamas movement is a “terrorist” movement that wants evil for the people of Palestine, and that the demonstrations that began in many Arab and Islamic countries were in support of Al-Aqsa and the Gaza Strip are merely demagogic actions with no good and no hope.Saudi Arabia ended the era of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice [the "Morality Police" - EoZ] ....Then the artistic openness came after the creation of a body they called the Entertainment Authority, and it was headed by one of those close to the Saudi Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman, who entrusted it to Turki Al-Sheikh, who began holding singing and dancing concerts in the Kingdom, and called the dance concerts “Halal Disco,” and called for the freedom of Saudi women. [The "Halal nightclub" was shut down its first night - EoZ.]And using new means to promote this culture, such as opening cinemas, theaters, and opera houses. The “Culture Authority” will play a major role in this, focusing on instilling new concepts in society, and starting from a young age, until a generation emerges different from the previous generation.As for the present time, the state must benefit from the skills of graduates of American and European universities in whom it has invested millions of dollars abroad to promote education in its new face, and its concepts derived from abroad, and not from the teachings of the great Islam. It is a real coup aimed at removing the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from its origins, history and traditions. Derived from the teachings of Islamic Sharia, and the goal behind all of this is to achieve change in political positions, shift the Kingdom’s policy towards “Israel”, accept it, coexist with it, establish alliances between them, and common relations based on mutual interests, and create an alliance led by “Israel” to protect the Arab countries.
Over the years, certainly since 9/11, there has been great Western interest in Islamic fundamentalism. But for some reason, Palestinian Islamist organizations like Hamas and Islamic Jihad have never been placed in the same fundamentalist bucket as Iran, the Saudis, Al Qaeda and ISIS. Their aim at destroying Israel was always considered more understandable and legitimate, even when their own theology has been indistinguishable from those of fundamentalist groups in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
Here we are seeing a Palestinian media outlet condemning the Saudis of being too modern, too accepting, not misogynist and not antisemitic enough.
And as always, this will be ignored or contextualized by Western 'experts" who agree with the Palestinian Islamist groups that the morality of their desire to destroy Israel outweighs their desire to wipe out Jews or to keep their people (and especially their women) enslaved under fundamentalist Islamist rules.
