On the eve of her trip, Livni told Qatar's Al-Watan newspaper "stopping Iran is in the joint interest of Israel and the Arab world together and generates the understanding that Israel and Islamic countries in the region face a common threat."

That is a pretty interesting thing to see. Is it a new form of political stance in which Arabs & Israelis have a common threat?

yeah man! thats the reason i posted this! its a very intresting thing that actually our foriegn policy towards Iran is very similar to that of israel! because iran is a common threat to our existence, both arabs and israelis! i guess that might be of a greater good for us! if we used it in the right way, we can strengthen up the peace between arabs and israelis and maybe palestenians will have an easier life!

But Arab leaders should be careful from a major point. Israel's current major threat is Iran with its size, capabilities and technology. Israel (with the US) is with a cold war with Iran if it didn't escalate to be an actual war. We, as Arabs, ought to be careful not for Israel to come and tell us Iran is our enemy and use us as tool to pressure on Iran. Israel's move might be the first move in that direction. Because if you take a look, Arabs might not like Iran, by they are not our enemies, but for Israel, Iran is there enemy. Why do we, Arabs, need to take a stronger stance against Iran.

My thought: Arabs should do nothing concerning their foreign policies, instead they should concentrate on improving their internal policies and let Israel & Iran face each other, with minimum intervention.
