Business between Arab tyrannies and Israel

"Israeli law allows doing business in Tunisia, although this is banned by Tunisian law and business is conducted quietly. Israeli exports to Tunisia – of chemicals and communication equipment – totaled $101,000 in 2010, while imports – mainly of oils – amounted to $2 million.  
Business in Morocco and the Gulf emirates is permitted on both sides. According to the IEICI, Israeli exports to Morocco – particularly chemicals and machines – totaled some $13.4 million last year, while Israel mostly imported clothes and food for $5.1 million.   According to the manufacturers' figures, exports to the United Arab Emirates totaled some $11.4 million last year and imports amounted to $4.1 million. Exports to Qatar totaled about $1 million and imports – $1.9 million." (thanks Khelil)
