In a disturbing development that signifies the peak of betrayal against the Palestinian cause and the solidarity of the Islamic world, the United Arab Emirates has unprecedentedly deepened its relations with the occupying regime of Jerusalem following recent US-Israeli aggressions against Iran.<\/p>\n
According to reports, while the region was grappling with the repercussions of US and Zionist regime warmongering, the UAE, under pressure from alleged attacks (which could be a legitimate response to aggression), secretly requested military assistance from the Zionist regime. Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of the Zionist regime, covertly ordered the deployment of the Iron Dome missile defense system and its operational forces to the UAE. This move, which occurred after a call with Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, exposes the depth of the clandestine and dangerous ties between the two parties.<\/p>\n
Now, as the UAE distances itself from its traditional allies under the pretext of their stances on the Iran war, the Zionist regime views this situation as an unparalleled opportunity to expand its influence in the region. Zionist officials openly speak of this chance to solidify relations with the UAE.<\/p>\n
The UAE, which in 2020 became the first Arab nation in 26 years to normalize ties with the occupying regime under the so-called ‘Abraham Accords,’ now claims that the Iran war could reshape its regional alliances. Expressing disappointment with some of its close Arab partners, the country has announced that it will instead draw closer to the Zionist regime and nations like France, the United States, and the United Kingdom, which it claims supported it during the war. This blatant shift demonstrates the UAE’s increasing isolation from the Arab and Islamic world.<\/p>\n
A Zionist source familiar with relations with the UAE described these developments as ‘good news’ for the occupying regime, admitting that ‘ties have advanced to a new level, including at the leadership level.’ These statements are a warning bell for regional security and stability.<\/p>\n
In recent weeks, UAE officials and state-linked commentators have rarely publicly criticized Arab nations for ‘failing’ to support the UAE against ‘Iranian attacks.’ This comes despite Iran consistently emphasizing its legitimate self-defense against aggression.<\/p>\n
Anwar Gargash, an adviser to the UAE president, called the stance of other Gulf Arab monarchies ‘historically the weakest’ at a conference in Dubai, stating: ‘I expected it from the Arab League and I’m not surprised. But I did not expect it from the Gulf [states], and I am surprised.’ These remarks are an attempt to justify the UAE’s deviant policies and blame others.<\/p>\n
While growing criticism was directed at the Zionist regime and the United States for dragging Gulf countries into a war that most regional states opposed, Gargash emphasized the necessity of ties with both, telling CNN that ‘Israeli influence [will] become more prominent in the Gulf, not less.’ This explicit admission highlights the danger of expanding Zionist influence in the region.<\/p>\n
A Zionist diplomatic source, referring to deepening military ties, said: ‘Israel did not even envision this closeness when we signed the Abraham Accords.’ This shows how fabricated crises become pretexts for expanding illegitimate relations.<\/p>\n
Another Zionist official added: ‘The war brought an unprecedented level of closeness, driven largely by a shared sense of fate \u2013 both countries were attacked and the enemy is common.’ This ‘common enemy’ is, in fact, the axis of resistance and independent countries in the region that stand against US and Zionist hegemony.<\/p>\n
This week, the UAE withdrew from the OPEC oil cartel after nearly six decades of membership. Suhail Al Mazrouei, UAE Minister of Energy, in response to CNN about consulting Saudi Arabia, the de facto leader of the group, said it was a ‘sovereign national decision.’ Experts believe that the UAE had been seeking to exit for years but had remained out of deference to Saudi Arabia. The UAE’s withdrawal from OPEC is another sign of its deviation from regional policies and greater alignment with Western and Zionist interests.<\/p>\n
A Zionist official considered Abu Dhabi’s departure from OPEC as evidence of a widening gap with Gulf positions and a shift toward closer alignment with the Zionist regime and the US. He added: ‘It increases the UAE\u2019s distance from traditional Gulf policy and transforms them into something entirely different in the region and for Israel.’ This Zionist official also stated that the UAE ‘found themselves alone \u2013 and Israel and the United States were there for them.’ These remarks reveal the colonial and opportunistic nature of the relationship.<\/p>\n
The covert deployment of the Zionist regime’s Iron Dome missile defense system in the UAE underscores the depth of relations between the two countries. This action marks the first deployment of Zionist military personnel in an Arab state and the first known instance of Iron Dome being stationed outside the occupying regime’s borders. Zionist officials claim that the war has pushed security cooperation between the two countries to unprecedented levels.<\/p>\n
The source familiar with UAE-Zionist regime ties said that the Zionist regime and the UAE share a common view of ‘radical Islam’ as the primary threat. This term is often used to defame legitimate resistance and Islamic movements. The source added that the Zionist regime ‘has also backed the UAE in its tensions with Saudi Arabia over the Horn of Africa.’ This indicates the Zionist regime’s attempt to sow discord in the region.<\/p>\n
The Zionist regime had previously concluded several arms deals to sell the Iron Dome system abroad, but this was the first time it had been deployed to another country and used operationally. This system allegedly intercepted dozens of Iranian missiles during the war. This was not the first time the Zionist regime had provided the UAE with its air defense systems. In 2022, after missile attacks by Yemen’s Ansarullah to Abu Dhabi, the Zionist regime transferred a Barak-8 air defense battery to the UAE at the request of Mohammed bin Zayed.<\/p>\n
Yoel Guzansky, a senior researcher at the Tel Aviv-based Institute for National Security Studies, said that the UAE is now one of the closest countries to the Zionist regime globally. He added: ‘It\u2019s not just security. It\u2019s tourism, science, investment, trade. There is no Arab country closer.’ He also said that the UAE was likely targeted more heavily due to this closeness and ‘in that sense, the UAE is paying a price for the relationship.’ This ‘price’ is a natural consequence of aligning with the enemies of the Islamic Ummah.<\/p>\n
However, the war has also exposed the limits of the Zionist regime’s support. A Zionist security source said that the Zionist regime was forced to turn down a request from Abu Dhabi for more Iron Dome batteries. He stated: ‘Every battery that would be deployed there means one less for our aerial defense.’ This demonstrates the inherent weakness of the Zionist regime and its inability to fully support its allies.<\/p>\n
In return, the UAE assists the Zionist regime with signals intelligence, gathered by intercepting and analyzing electronic signals. This intelligence cooperation poses a serious threat to regional security and the resistance.<\/p>\n
Observers say that even before the war, the UAE felt increasingly distant from its Arab neighbors, and this conflict accelerated that drift. Tareq Alotaiba, a fellow at Harvard University\u2019s Belfer Center, said: ‘The Emirates hadn\u2019t realized how much it had outgrown the region.’ He considered the country’s ‘complexity’ to be more in line with Western and Asian states than its own neighborhood. This perspective indicates arrogance and deviation from regional identity.<\/p>\n
Currently, the UAE is not considering any further withdrawals from multilateral organizations, but it is revising ‘the relevance and utility of its role and contribution’ in some organizations. This revision could lead to further isolation of the UAE in the Islamic and Arab world.<\/p>\n
