Saudi Crown Prince: We Look at Israel "as a Potential Ally"

(Atlantic-Al Arabiya) Interview with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman - "I would not use the term 'moderate Islam'" which suggests "that we in Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries are changing Islam into something new, which is not true. We are going back to the real teachings of Islam, the way that the Prophet and the four Rightly Guided caliphs lived, which was open and peaceful societies. They had Christians and Jews living under their rule. They taught us to respect all cultures, all religions, regardless....What happened was that the extremists hijacked and changed our religion into something new for their own interests." Q: Do you think that Saudi Arabia might follow some of these other Arab nations in having an open relationship, diplomatic relations with Israel? "We don't look at Israel as an enemy, we look to them as a potential ally, with many interests that we can pursue together. But we have to solve some issues before we get to that."
