The rabbi of the Jewish community in Bahrain, Rabbi Mark Schneier, said in an interview with Galei Tzahal that the agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates "is a victory for the Palestinians. The United Arab Emirates brought the two-state solution back to the table, and removed the annexation from the agenda. "
Rabbi Schneier added: "I believe that the next country will be Bahrain. The agreement with the United Arab Emirates will have a 'domino' effect on the Gulf states, and at least one will follow them by the end of 2020."
