For 11 years, the Israeli regime has worked to conduct diplomacy with Bahrain in secret, through the use of a front company. However, this secret diplomatic office’s existence was classified and has only recently come to light following a short report by KAN last week.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

According to the report, the idea of a secret diplomatic mission was brought up in 2007-2008 during a series of meetings with Bahraini Foreign Minister Khaled bin Ahmad Al Khalifa and his then-Israeli counterpart, Tzipi Livni.
