According to experts, the normalization of Arab countries' relations with Israel, which resumed three years ago after a fourteen-decade hiatus, is one of the motivations and factors of the recent war, and one of the issues that are affected by this war. In 2020, Netanyahu's government, with the support of the then American government headed by Donald Trump, was able to significantly increase the number of Arab countries that recognized the existence of the Israeli regime and signed agreements to normalize relations with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. In the past months, the United States has been putting a lot of pressure on Saudi Arabia to join this process and, as one of the most important countries in the Islamic world, the host of the holiest places for Muslims and the self-proclaimed leader of the Arab world, to normalize its relations with Israel and treat this regime as a country to recognize.

On the first day of the war, in response to the Hamas operation, the Al-Monitor news website headlined: "Normalization, the first casualty of the war." Sabah Zanganeh, an analyst of Middle East issues, says: "What happened greatly affected the situation in the region. Due to the violence that the Zionist regime took in response to the Hamas operation, the social and political atmosphere of the entire Middle East region and the public opinion of the Arab countries have been affected. Zanganeh believes: "With this situation, the issue of normalization will be in a coma for the time being, and the countries that have started normalization will be exposed to the pressure of the public opinion of the region and their own people, so the process of normalization will not be discussed for a long time." This analyst of regional issues believes: "Although America spent a lot of energy and tried to normalize relations with more Arab countries in various meetings and negotiations, and even sought to launch a corridor project connecting India through the UAE and Saudi Arabia to Jordan and Israel, But this project will not go anywhere for now."

Referring to Netanyahu's constant claim that peace with the Arabs will mean the end of the conflict in the region and the establishment of peace and stability, Sabah Zanganeh says: "Netanyahu's statements were a cunning attempt to destroy the rights of the Palestinians and to forget the whole issue of Palestine." The countries that entered normalization either neglected. That is, they agreed to normalize their relations with a regime that occupies a land, expels its people, conducts military operations every now and then, imprisons and kills. It was an anti-human project and idea, and in fact, in the latest action of this regime, that trick has been exposed."
