Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who arrived in the United Arab Emirates on Sunday evening for a historic visit, met with Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Monday at the royal palace in Abu Dhabi.
Bennett also met with the Minister of Technology and Industry Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber and Culture Minister Noura bint Mohammed Al Kaabi on Monday.
“The message that I wish to deliver to the UAE leaders and Emirati citizens is that mutual partnership and friendship are natural,” Bennett said in an interview with the official Emirates News Agency (WAM) on Monday morning. “We are neighbors and cousins. We are the grandchildren of Prophet Abraham.”
Bennett was greeted at the airport on Sunday by the Crown Prince’s brother, Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed al-Nahyan, and an honor guard.

Not sure if “prophet Abraham” is so proud to be associated with you.
This Bennett character appears to think he became an Islamic adherent and has started referring to Abraham as Prophet.
ujm – pleeeeze
give the world a break, and go back to your mom’s basement
Islamic revisionists fabricated claims that the Jews revised the original Torah.
In fact it was Islam who falsified the Torah in a number of key issues.
Avraham Aveinu was a prophet of Judaism, but he was not a prophet of Islam, as claimed by Islam.
Yishmael, ancestor of the Arabs, was not the “zera”, ie descendant of Avraham Aveinu.
Only Yitzchak, ancestor of the Jews, was the descendant of Avraham Aveinu.
Making peace with Yishmael is a worthwhile goal, but it cannot come at the expense of truth.
