Pakistan is among the Muslim Islamic states that do not recognise and/or maintain diplomatic relations with Israel. Yet this situation has been changing dramatically as various Muslim states are establishing and/or seriously considering relations with Israel. In recent years, Israel’s relations with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have marked an unprecedented improvement as the focus of many Arab countries has shifted from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to countering Iranian influence. India’s ability to maintain close relations with Israel while maintaining good relations with many Middle Eastern countries and the Palestinians is seen by Pakistan’s political elite as a strong reason for the need to have normal relations with the Jewish state. The article argues that the prospects of an Israel-Pakistan rapprochement are very dim at present due to continuing salience of ideological nature of the Pakistani state and the growing Islamist orientation of its people
