Gulf Online; The presence of a Zionist officer in Bahrain is in Israel’s interest.
A news site reported that Bahrain’s claims about the impact of the presence of a Zionist officer in the country on the security of the Persian Gulf are false, and that this action only benefits Tel Aviv.
The Hebrew media reported on Saturday that the Zionist regime will for the first time formally appoint a senior army officer as its representative in Bahrain.
The Al-Khaleej Online news site reported that the Zionist regime is taking advantage of its presence in Bahrain; Because it can get closer to Iran and use issues such as shipping freedom, security issues and “counter-terrorism” as a pretext for this proximity.
“Bahrain’s agreement to accept an Israeli officer on its territory is part of a policy of free normalization of relations with Israel,” Ma’mun Abu Amer, a political analyst and researcher on Israeli affairs, told the news site. “Without any real achievement for these countries.”
Abu Omar stressed that Bahrain claims that the presence of this Zionist officer is “symbolic” and without the presence of forces, it will not really change anything, but “his presence is in Israel’s interest and in increasing maritime security in the Gulf.” “It will have no effect.”
He pointed out that if there is a war in the Persian Gulf region, the presence of this officer will not be of any use; “Because it is the responsibility of the Gulf countries themselves to support the security of the Gulf. Or the United States to intervene. “In either case, the symbolic presence of Israel makes no sense.”
This political analyst, however, believes that the presence of this Zionist officer brings security services to the Zionist regime; Because he will be able to be aware of the security situation and the movement of ships. He concluded by emphasizing that the presence “is only for the benefit of Israel and, as Bahrain claims, will have no effect on the security of the Gulf.”
