WARSAW: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office leaked video of Gulf Arab ministers slamming Iran during a closed-door session of a Middle East conference in Warsaw, Israeli media reported Friday.
Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Arab states which do not recognise Israel sent top diplomats to attend this week’s conference alongside Netanyahu, something the prime minister and his US ally have talked up as a new regional axis against Iran.
Israeli correspondents who travelled with Netanyahu to the two-day conference said that the prime minister had hinted to them during a briefing that his staff had footage of Gulf ministers addressing a session on Iran on Wednesday. Israel’s Maariv newspaper said that the following day, "the prime minister’s office posted (and shortly thereafter deleted) a video from the closed introductory panel about Iran." Netanyahu’s office declined to comment to AFP. On Friday, the Haaretz newspaper ran what it said were leaked clips, in one of which Bahrain’s foreign minister is seen saying that Iran poses a "more toxic challenge" to the region than Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories. "We grew up talking about the Palestine-Israel dispute as the most important issue," Foeeign Minister Khaled bin Ahmed al-Khalifa tells fellow delegates. "But then, at a later stage, we saw a bigger challenge, more toxic -- in fact the most toxic in our modern history -- which came from the Islamic republic.
