Can I visit Arab countries if I will give up on my Israeli citizenship?
I'm a Jew who was born and live in Israel.
I always wanted to immigrate to Norway, and according to the norwegian nationality law if you became a norwegian citizen you have to give up about your previous citizenship.
If I will give up on my Israeli citizenship and get a Norwegian citizenship instead, will I be able to enter to countries like United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Lebanon and another countries I couldn't visit because of my Israeli citizenship?

You are an Israeli national and don't know that Israeli citizens cannot renounce Israeli citizenship? This is one of certain reason for Norway to accept dual citizenship
Norway accepts dual citizenship under the following conditions:
the legislation in the applicant’s former home country does not permit citizens to be released from their citizenship, or such release is deemed to be practically impossible.
The authorities in the former home country have rejected an application for release.
Therefore you will be a dual citizen and can enter all Arab countries (beside Saudi Arabia) with your Norway passport and will receive a visa up on arrival.

Once you receive your Norwegian passport, you can visit any Arab country you want, regardless of having an Israeli passport or not. Just don't let them know that you are Israeli.
H is wrong about renouncing your Israeli citizenship:
