First Flight From UAE Lands In Israel Month After The Two Normalise Ties

By NDTV, October 21, 2020

The first ever passenger flight from the United Arab Emirates to Israel landed near Tel Aviv on Monday, a month after the countries signed an agreement normalising ties.

Etihad Airways flight EY 9607 from Abu Dhabi landed at Ben Gurion airport early in the morning with only crew on board, a spokeswoman for the Israel Airports Authority told AFP.

The plane picked up Israeli tourism professionals, who would be flying to the UAE for a two-day trip visit organised by Israeli company Maman Group, the spokeswoman said.

The UAE carrier said it had made “history”.

“Etihad has become the first Gulf airline to operate a passenger flight to Israel. And this is only the beginning,” the airline said on Twitter.

Etihad planes had landed in Ben Gurion with medical supplies in May and June to help the Palestinians cope with the coronavirus pandemic.

The Palestinians, who object the agreement Israel forged with the UAE, refused to receive the aid.

In August, Israel and the UAE announced that they had reached a US-brokered deal to normalise ties, following years of discreet economic and security cooperation.

Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, ratified the UAE deal last week.

The UAE and Israel were due on Tuesday to sign an agreement to have 28 weekly commercial flights between the countries, a transportation ministry official said.

In Manama on Sunday, Israel and Bahrain signed a deal to establish relations, making the UAE and Bahrain only the third and fourth Arab states to normalise ties with Israel, following Israel’s 1979 peace deal with Egypt and a 1994 pact with Jordan.

Great news. History being made before our eyes.
I think they have already increased the bomb-sniffing dog patrols, there are certainly some PO’d muslimes not happy about this.

Do you think Israeli security will be inspecting/examining Emirates airliners in the UAE or anywhere else for that matter? Really?

The opportunities for muslum terrorism will only increase with muslum owned airlines operating in Israel. What if they don’t blow up an airport or city? What about a military airbase? The idea that Israeli security will be inspecting muslum owned airliners in moslem states (and I’m not necessarily referring to the moslem states in which the airline is based) is ludicrous. But don’t stop believing…

Future headline: UAE Emirates airliner blows up over Tel Aviv airport with blast equal to 1 kiloton of high explosives.

UAE Emirates Airliner spokesman “We don’t know what happened. It’s Allah’s Will.”

Nice!………..but I have to ask.

How is ANY plane from a muslim country landing in Israel scanned for a nuclear bomb beforehand?
