Email from Zionist Organization of America ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA IN THE MEDIA ZOA Chief Klein Urges U.S. to Block F-35 Sale to Newly Extremist, Antisemitic Saudi Arabia - Newsmax By Jim Mishler (January 27, 2026 / Newsmax) Zionist Organization of America National President Morton Klein warned that Saudi Arabia should not be allowed to purchase advanced frontline F-35 jet fighters from the U.S. Klein said Saudi Arabia has moved away from normalization with Israel and is now pursuing policies he described as hostile to U.S. and Israeli interests. In a statement, Klein said hopes that Saudi Arabia would join the Abraham Accords have faded, arguing that Riyadh has instead "sharply moved in a dangerous, opposite direction." Klein pointed to what he described as Saudi Arabia's expanded ties with "radical Islamist and Muslim Brotherhood regimes," including Turkey, Qatar, Iran, and Yemen's Al Islah, along with actions he said targeted Abraham Accords signatories such as the United Arab Emirates. He cited a December 2025 incident in which Saudi Arabia allegedly attacked an Emirati weapons shipment in Yemen, saying it allowed "Muslim Brotherhood-allied Al Islah forces to expand," and accused Riyadh of increasing "antisemitic, anti-Israel and anti-UAE propaganda." As an example, Klein highlighted a January 22, 2026, article in the Saudi government-aligned newspaper Al-Jazirah that accused the UAE of being "a dagger in the back of the Arab nation" and labeled the country "the Israeli Trojan horse in the Arab world." Klein said that rhetoric reflects a decisive shift, stating that Saudi Arabia "no longer pursues peace with Israel" and is "embracing the horrific tenets of the extremist antisemitic Muslim Brotherhood."
