Lost in all of this is that many of the Arab states are finally becoming open about something they have believed for a long time - the Palestinians are a pain in the posterior....

They look at Israel pulling away economically, and want some of that action (trade, technology, etc). Countries that host the now 5th generation of Palestinian "refugees" see them as troublemakers (the fact that you cannot become a citizen in a "Jus sanguinis" country doesn't help), and ones that get more sympathy in the West than the countries that host them.

For their part the Palestinians are doing the old M.E. trick of looking at "the enemy of my enemy.." by signing up with the Iranians and hosting their own native bad-guy organizations...

Toxic all around, but it looks like some of the players (the Arab countries) are saying they want off this merry-go-round.
