Saudi court starts trial of two Arabs accused of spying for Mossad
2018-05-01
[Ynet] Two Jordanians face charges of plotting a terrorist act during the annual Moslem haj pilgrimage four years ago and supporting Islamic State turbans‐allegedly on behalf of the Israeli spy agency.
Hired by Mossad to support ISIS seems more than a tad unlikely, but whatever.

...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
n court began the trial of two Jordanians accused of spying against the kingdom for Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency, Saudi-owned al-Arabiya said on Monday.

The charges under consideration by the Specialized Criminal Court include plotting a terrorist act during the annual Moslem haj pilgrimage four years ago and supporting Islamic State turbans, al-Arabiya wrote on its website.

It did not provide further details about the case.

Saudi Arabia, the birthplace of Islam and site of its holiest shrines, does not officially recognize Israel. It has maintained for years that normalizing relations hinges on an Israeli withdrawal from lands captured in the 1967 Six-Day Way, territory Paleostinians seek for a future state.

increased tensions between Riyadh and Tehran has fueled speculation that shared interests may push Saudi Arabia and Israel to work together against what they regard as a common Iranian threat.

In a sign of an apparent thaw between the two countries, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman
...Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia as of 2016....
said in April that Israelis were entitled to live peacefully on their own land.

Last month, Saudi Arabia opened its air space for the first time to a commercial flight to Israel, a move hailed by an Israeli official as historic following two years of efforts.
