Inode,
But without understanding the Abraham Accords you really have no grip at all on what is happening there, nor why it is happening.
I understand the Abraham Accords. I understand the need to normalize diplomatic relations between Israel and other countries in the Middle East.

I also understand the bitter rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran, along with the moral compromises we had to make in order to keep Saudi Arabia "on our side" (whatever that means).

Moreover, I understand Iran's "concept of a plan" when it comes to destabilizing the region through their proxies. Too bad for them their plan fell apart because they let their dogs off leash. Now they're powerless to even retaliate against Israel's airstrikes deep into Iranian territory.

Finally, I understand the folly of trying to appease Iran. That seems to be the Brandon administration's policy, which is a direct continuation of Obama's "lead from his behind" foreign policy. That, plus the sheer denial that they have exhibited when it comes to "showing off the goodness of democracy," proved to me that our foreign policy was on complete autopilot. (Brandon may have taken the controls after he dropped out of the race, but by then what he had accomplished may have been too little too late.)

So you see Inode, I understand a LOT more than you could ever imagine. I'm also able to describe a LOT more about what's going on in the Middle East than you could.

Yet you want me to listen to some 4-hour podcast where a couple of guys talk about Trump's "concepts of a plan" when it comes to bringing peace in the Middle East?

Give me a break. There is no "concept of a plan." There is just the sheer awesomeness of sUpErMaN tRuMp despite all of the self-contradictions, all of his overpromising, and all of his underdelivering.

Now that Trump announced his intention to occupy Gaza and turn it into the MAGA Strip, complete with Trump hotels and Trump casinos with beautiful views of the Mediterranean, do you still believe Trump has any understanding of the Abraham Accords?

Countering Trump, Saudi Arabia reiterates it won’t form ties with Israel without Palestinian state (Times of Israel)

Arab nations reject Trump’s suggestion to relocate Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt and Jordan (AP)
