نفي التطبيع وأكد التزام البحرين بموقف عربي موحد من إسرائيل
وزير الخارجية يعلن رفع الحظر عن البضائع الإسرائيلية
22/09/2005
قال نائب رئيس الوزراء وزير الخارجية الشيخ محمد بن مبارك آل خليفة
إن الحكومة ''اتخذت قراراً برفع الحظر عن دخول البضائع الاسرائيلية إلي الاسواق البحرينية''.
وأكد وزير الخارجية في تصريح لصحيفة الرأي العام الكويتية أن ''القرار اتخذ بالفعل وهناك اتفاقية تجارة حرة وقعتها البحرين واتفاقيات التجارة الحرة لا تطبق قرارات المقاطعة ونحن لم نوقع الاتفاقية مع إسرائيل بل مع الولايات المتحدة''، مشيرا إلي أن ''هناك من وقع مع إسرائيل لكننا لم نفعل''. وأوضح الوزير أن البحرين تسير في اتفاقيات التجارة الحرة مع الولايات المتحدة وهذا الموضوع (التجارة الحرة) تم الاتفاق عليه في مجلس التعاون الخليجي''. وقال إن ''رفع الحظر عن البضائع الاسرائيلية شيء والتطبيع مع إسرائيل شيء آخر فنحن نلتزم المبادرة العربية للسلام التي أقرت في بيروت. وحول الاتصالات مع الجانب الاسرائيلي قال الوزير: إن هناك موقفا عربيا سيبحث في اجتماع لوزراء الخارجية العرب في نيويورك وسنخرج بموقف موحد والبحرين ستلتزمه وتعتبره إطارا عاماً.

I think that if Israel lets Palestine to be declared as a separate state and lets Jeruslalem to be shared, there should be good relations from that point. Until then, I think muslim countries should wait, despite pressure from the US. Muslims should eventually have good relations with Jews because historically they took refuge in Muslim lands, away from the dangerous Christian lands where they faced persecution.
Foreign Minister declares that Bahrain lifts ban on Israeli products. When signing an FTA, there should not be any boycotts and to be clear, the FTA was signed with the U.S. and not Israel. Lifting the ban is one thing and cooperating is another, we share the arab initiative of peace that was declared in Beirut. The arab foreign ministers will meet in N.Y. and will have a united stance and Bahrain will share that.
Zohar , when your GOV realises that palastenians are actually humans that deserve to lead their own lives "free" and have a state they can call home , then and only then will the UAE have anything to do with your country.
yes you do have your own rights to ure own opinions, provided you do not indirectly insult somebody or a group of people. otherwise theyll do the same to you, so anyways...
HAhaha, you guys are like a cat and mouse...Tom and jerry...Only i don't know who's who...
And lets just see what the UAE will do when they sign their FTA with the states, which they are in the process of doing i think...Lets see if they won't follow suit...I bet they will without blinking or giving it a second thought...
Trade between Israel and the arab world will be pretty much one sided of us importing oil and natural gas. Because Israeli products are mostly imported from other places by arab countries, and vice versa. Anyway most high tech farming equipment, medicine and high tech products are already traded through third countries, for many years.
The real bonanza for me will be when we have tourism.
In the short run a weekend in Bahrain or UAE (4 hour flight)
in the long run a fast speed train..
I want to take a train from alexandria through gaza, tel aviv up to to beirut and from haifa to amman to damascus and to beirut and down back to haifa..
And then link this to the gulf.
It could be so cool.
Well maybe not you source , because you made it quite clear to us what you think of arabs in general and palestnians in particular , and that sort of mentality isnt really welcome , dont you agree with me ?
Maybe the next generation of israelis will be more tolerable and just
when palestinians think I have a right to exist and accept our rights over our land I will change my mind up as well.
I wont hug someone with an explosives belt to kill me, neither would you..
Also I have no problem with muslims or arabs.
I have two egyptian friends, I live with 2 arab neighbors in Haifa,
and I have at least 3-4 arab israeli friends, who study with me.
The problem is not our side.. and you know it.
Source , i know israelis do get killed in the process too , i would be a complete blind idiot if i said otherwise , but when you actually admitt that your GOV acts in horrific ways againts the PAL people , only then will we as humans first and arabs second accept you into our countries
Our gov can do as they like , but whats the point of visiting a country where the majority of the people will be waiting for one wrong thing to come out of you just to beat the hell out of you , i personally wouldnt want to go visit a country if i knew the people though of me in that way.
The fact that you have arab friends erases every horrific deed committed againts the Pals !!! life isnt that nice my friend , israelis will be reminded of it till the end of time
We will milk this cow to the very last drop the way you do the germans every year ! dont we have the right ?
oh you mean the way israel has increased the life expactancy of arabs from 50 years to 80? the way thousands from gaza work in Israel because egypt doesnt let them work there? You mean the way arab israelis enjoy a higher standard of living than 90 percent of the arab world? or that palestinians are doing better than most of their supporters in iran or north africa?
The germans? Even though they butchered 6 million jews we have friendly and even very strong relations with Germany. So this example is pretty bad on your part, not to mention the palestinians and arab world have kileld 21,000 israeli soldiers and civilians in wars and terror 1500 innocent civilians in the last intifada so I dont see your point.. even after this we dont even have a death sentence for these terrorists, and only a handful of the worst have been targeted in self defense. Any country that has 5000 rockets launched on it would do much worse things to protect itself..
Although personally I cant see myself visiting Germany because they killed 30 members of my family, most of my friends have no trouble buying german products, cars or travelling there. Also, jews have never been anything but loyal and beneficial citizens of Germany.. and most israelis like my grandfather, even though they killed his entire family, refused to take any german compensation money, not even one mark, and I am very proud of him for this decision. Its filthy money and I can understand those that took it to rebuild their life but its still filthy.
So please choose better excuses next time.
You can milk anything you want, as long as its a cow, not an ant..
