Israel, Saudi Arabia Maintain ‘Covert Ties’: Energy Minister
Israel has maintained covert contact with Saudi Arabia regarding Iran and other areas of common interest, Israeli Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz revealed Sunday.
Although high-ranking Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have often spoken in general terms regarding the budding backdoor diplomatic relations between Israel and Arab states, Steinitz’s comments mark the first official disclosure of the Jewish state’s developing ties with Riyadh.
In an interview Sunday with Army Radio, Steinitz, a member of the Israeli security cabinet, was asked why Israel has kept its ties with Saudi Arabia secret.
“We have ties that are indeed partly covert with many Muslim and Arab countries, and usually [we are] the party that is not ashamed,” said Steinitz.

It seems there is a strategy being put in place here...time will tell how it all plays out with all of the tension throughout the Middle Eastern Nations.
Israel and Saudi Arabia fight a common enemy; Iran (and all Iranian backed groups, such as Hezbollah and Houthi rebels). Israel has a strong military, and they are allied with the United States. The United States is also against Iran (and of course, their military dominance in the world goes without saying). For Crown Prince MBS to fulfill his agenda of reinstating Saudi Arabia as a regional military superpower, the best chance they have is to ally with other military superpowers who share a common enemy (especially one who has been a thorn in the side of Al-Saud dynasty's side for almost 40 years).
The fact that they are coming out about this now, shows us how close we are to WWIII showdown. The new "allied" and "axis" powers are coming together.
Congratulation

It's interesting to see this all play out.
Covert ties? Outwardly hating each other but working together behind the scenes.
Lets see how far that goes!
I wonder what the Persian people will make of this...
