Israeli minister greeted with honor in Oman (video)




Here is a tweet from Israel's Minister of Transportation Yisrael Katz showing his reception in Oman with a traditional Arab sword dance.

I don't get the impression that the dance is meant to be an insult or a threat.

Katz is expected to present a plan for a railway that would link the port in Haifa to existing railways in the Gulf.

The astounding thing about both this and the videos of Sports and Culture Minister Miri Regev also in Oman touring the Sheikh Zayed Mosque is that Israeli officials are being treated with more respect and less fear of public backlash in Oman than in the states that Israel has official peace agreements with, Egypt and Jordan.

It is widely expected that the next Arab country that Israeli PM Netanyahu will visit is Bahrain.

They also carry a dagger with them closely. Ceremonial? who knows?

But why Oman? What is the historical connection of Israel(jewish history) with Oman.

Any surviving biblical records about Solomon or Davids trip to Muscat for tribute or something?

Wikipedia knows!

A khanjar (Arabic: خنجر‎, Persian: خونگر‎, Turkish: Hançer, Bosnian: Handžar) is a traditional dagger originating from Oman. Worn by men for ceremonial occasions, it is a short curved sword shaped like the letter "J" and resembles a hook. ​

But why Oman? What is the historical connection -

Why would an ancient historical or biblical "connection" be a factor in the visit?

 

[El Sidd]

Why would an ancient historical or biblical "connection" be a factor in the visit?

Because its middle east?

Because its middle east?

So by the same token when a foreigner visits Switzerland that must be because his ancestors shared ancient history with the Helvetii tribe?
