Indonesia could normalize ties with Israel as part of a deal to smooth the entry of the world's most populous Muslim nation into the OECD for developed countries, an Israeli official said Thursday.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed a report in the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth detailing months of hush-hush talks between Jerusalem, Jakarta, and Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ( OECD) Secretary-General Mathias Cormann.

Normalization would mark a stunning about-face for Indonesia at a time when anti-Israel sentiment in the Muslim world is running higher than it has in years due to the war in the Gaza Strip.

Not surprised. I believe Saudi Arabia was about to do same. However ever since Israel bombed Gaza recently, Saudi Arabia has not recognized Israel yet.

Two State Solution, people! That is the answer to the conflict.
