So the Saudi government is trying to compensate to deal with this resentment against its killing and murder of Khashoggi, as well as the war in Yemen, by getting closer and closer to the Israeli government. And the Israeli lobby has been a champion of the Saudi government as well as of all Arab despots throughout the decades. And they have helped to keep the relations between Saudi government and the Trump administration as good as it has been ever since Trump went on his first official visit to Saudi Arabia.

SHARMINI PERIES All right, As'ad. It's Ramadan. Any messages to your viewers?

AS'AD ABUKHALIL No, nothing special except salutation to the masses everywhere, especially to the toilers and workers around the world.

SHARMINI PERIES All right, As'ad. As always, I thank you so much for joining us. And we'll take up the United Arab Emirates and deconstructing that New York Times article when we have you on next. Thank you for today.

AS'AD ABUKHALIL Also thank you.

SHARMINI PERIES And thank you for joining us here on The Real News Network.
