PM Meets With Senior Saudi Official
2006-09-25
[Dr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA: Given that Prime Minister Olmert's "planning" is set mostly in consultation with advertising men it can be expected that the micron-thin depth of thinking could readily lead to a situation that Olmert - in the hopes of improving his polls - may create a situation to suck Israel into endorsing the Saudi initiative for Israel to agree both to withdrawing from every centimeter to the '67 line AND flooding "little Israel" with Palestinian refugees - all in return for some photo-ops and at best diplomatic relations that will last until Israel is destroyed.]
Yedioth Ahronoth reports Olmert secretly met with senior member of Saudi royal family about 10 days ago, perhaps even with King Abdullah himself. Only several Israelis involved in secret meeting, which was welcomed by senior American officials.

Dramatic development in relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia: Prime Minister Ehud Olmert secretly met about 10 days ago with a senior member of the Saudi royal family, the Yedioth Ahronoth daily reported Monday morning.
According to several sources, the person Olmert met with was Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah himself. Other sources implied that the meeting was held with a different senior figure in the kingdom.
Only a number of Israelis were involved in the secret meeting, which was welcomed by senior american officials.
This appears to be the first time an Israeli prime minister holds a direct meeting with such a senior member of the Saudi royal family.
