    Yes, some months ago. ‘Normalised’ here doesn’t mean they are friends, just that they will no longer try to start proxy wars against each other.

          Ok, that was in March/June. What does that have to do with Israel now? Still not quite understanding how

          “Israel is about to cause peace in the Middle East.”

          is implied by

          “Iran and Saudi Arabia normalized.”

            The Iran-Saudi thing started before the current round of fighting. At most the conflict accelerated it, and sunk any chance of a Saudi-Israeli peace.

            Israel is about to cause peace in the Middle East.

            I’m guessing they were either joking, or talking about the Iran-Egypt normalisation. That one may be due to the current conflict, but Middle East politics is complicated and I’m not an expert.
