Saudi Arabia moves to normalize ties with Israel
A recent study has shown that Saudi Arabia continues to reform its fundamental Islamic educational system, aiming to purify curricula from content that is hostile to Jews and to promote the values of moderation, tolerance, and critical thinking. A review of 136 textbooks confirmed that updates included removing anti-Jewish content, such as describing Zionism as a "racist European movement," and eliminating claims that the Al-Aqsa Mosque was burned in 1969. Additionally, new books have been introduced to encourage peace and tolerance, along with improvements in how religious minorities are treated. This reflects the direction outlined in Vision 2030 to modernize society and foster closer ties with the West. These changes may also open doors for collaboration with Israel, although Saudi Arabia still ties normalization to the existence of a Palestinian state.
