Is Israel secretly working with Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states, Egypt and Jordan?

Israel and the United States are not the only ones worried about Iran getting a nuclear bomb. Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states, Egypt and Jordan all have reason to be concerned. Wouldn't it be interesting to see them allying with Israel over the threat of a nuclear Iran? They are already cooperating, writes Joseph Wouk,

in the matter of terror and the spread of al-Qaeda and linked groups in Sinai, Syria, and Africa, and in the struggle against the Iran-Syria axis.

Israelis involved in these relations explained to Ynet that some countries in the region are fearful of the void created by Washington’s hesitant and confused behavior, and they seek a strong and reliable collaborator they can work with – even if it is in secret.

In Jerusalem, no one aims to “replace” the US government, but in reality, they cooperate secretively with different regimes in the area.
