    This was a political stunt between Israel and 2 countries it never went to war with. Trump needed it. The Israeli PM needed it, so they staged a photo op.

    At the same time, rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel.

    Most massive peacemaking success in the Middle East EVER by any world leader. Most deserving Nobel Peace Prize nominee EVER. 4 countries officially ended decades of war between each other. Many more in negotiations to follow suit.

    Globalists are desperate to stop POTUS TRUMP from dismantling their main moneymaker, and will literally stop at nothing to prevent his obviously imminent reelection.

    Last time an American president presided over a middle-east peace treaty when the economy was in the shitter he was defeated soundly, and in that case it was actually an actual peace treaty between Israel and it's neighbor that it fought 4 wars with - Egypt.

    It's a photo-op between a failing president, a PM that is fighting corruption charges while his country is going back to quarantine because he fucked up their early Covid-19 success and 2 distant Arab emirates that want American jets.

    At least no tear gas into peaceful American citizens was fired to stage this photo-op, so that's something...

    Or you've ignored Palestinian rights across the board thinking selling Israel more weapons means more peace. Trump also sold a billion in arms to Saudis and Qatar...yeah..you want to broker peace first move is arm the shit out of the countries that have tensions

    The only potential positive I can see is that maybe, just maybe the Israelis will wean themselves from America’s teats. The whole “Israel is the only thing keeping the Middle East from blowing up” has gotten exceedingly tiresome. They’re a feisty country but it’s amazing how much more you can accomplish with America in your corner They have become a very self entitled (and even arrogant) bunch the past couple of decades. And, all things considered, they don’t appear to have a great deal of respect for America except for what we can do for them. Kinda like most of the rest of the world at the moment.....

    It was a 100% political stunt. Only idiots and dullards believe this was genuine.

    Did you ever elect a class president in school and there was that person who said they would get vending machines in the hallway?

    So Trump is brokering peace deals with Arab countries that have been silent on the genocide of the Uyghurs? Who fucking cares?

    Where has peace been made? Between Israel and UAE? They are both US allies who have never gone to war with one another. There has been an informal alliance that has been made formal in exchanged for US sending weapons to Israel and UAE. Netanyahu has gotten a much needed face lift in the face of his own scandals.

    Israel gets most of the land they have been fighting Palestine for. Palestine meanwhile has been backed into a corner after Trump cut aid to them and recognized Jerusalem which Palestine has contested as the capitol of Israel. They are not happy and are not feeling peaceful.

    The warring between Palestine and Israel will continue. And, it will get bloodied as we arm Israel. I am sure Russia is probably arming palestine as we speak.
