In December, he predicted that the "Deal of the Century" would be released in January. He is offering this prediction as a follow-up.
His new prediction is for a non-aggression pact between Israel and the nations of the Gulf Cooperation Council, plus Egypt, Jordan and possibly Morocco.
The Gulf Cooperation Council members are Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
Why Egypt or Jordan would sign such an agreement that would be superfluous to their existing peace treaties is unclear.
Al Thani is critical of this idea, which includes his own country, as being the result of pressure from the Trump administration. He says he is not against a "just peace" but that should precede any such agreement.
"Although there are Arab countries that promised the American side that they would take a positive position on the deal, they did not, and they justified this by saying that they could not because of their media. I was almost sure that these countries wanted to make those promises to come closer to America, even though they knew that the deal would be held up by the majority in the Arab League," he wrote.
Al Thani claims that the timing of the deal was to help Netanyahu and Trump win their elections, and he complains that Israel is pursuing a long term strategy for the region while Arab nations are held hostage to short-term interests and tactics.
One person who responded to the thread pointed out laughingly that while Al Thani is claiming to be skeptical now about any peace with Israel, he told CNN that he himself wanted to see Israelis in all Arab states.
