Fanatical Wahhabi anti-Semites for Israel. "Jerusalem sources told Haaretz that Israel and Saudi Arabia have been holding covert meetings in a third state.

The paper published interviews with senior Israeli figures several times over the last 10 years but in the past refrained from mentioning that these were exclusive."" (thanks R.)
