After President Donald Trump asked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to help out, Israel released the terrorist and sent her back to her state sponsor of terrorism, Turkey.
Facing the Arab Sunni regimes and Israel, and strongly supported by the Obama administration were Turkey, Qatar and Iran, which together formed a Sunni-Shi'ite Islamist bloc.
The first time the two blocs were seen in the light of day was in 2014, during Hamas's war with Israel known as "Operation Protective Edge." At the time, Turkey, Qatar and the Obama administration supported Hamas's ceasefire terms.
Their unprecedented willingness to publicly stand with Israel stunned the Obama administration and enabled Israel to withstand administration pressure to succumb to Hamas's demands.
Blind to the seismic shifts that have occurred, Raab arrived uninvited in Israel's capital to mediate peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
While the details of their meeting were not reported, Netanyahu made clear Israel's displeasure at Britain's pro-Iran policies and expressed no interest in Britain's offer to pressure Israel to make unreciprocated concessions to the Palestinians.
If Trump is re-elected in November, this stabilizing bloc whose members stand against both Sunni and Shi'ite jihadists will expand and the circle of formal ties between Israel and the Gulf states will grow.
