Nobody thought peace in the Middle East is possible. At least in our generation. For centuries, the Middle East was a place of constant war. For centuries, Israel was at risk of annihalation.
But Trump decided to take a different approach. He approached the leaders of the Middle East just like he always approached business tycoons in New York. By trying to make a deal with them.
The very first foreign visit Trump did as a president was to the Middle East, where he spoke with a gathering of some 30+ leaders of the Middle Eastern block. He offered them a choice. They could continue fighting like they always did. Or they could choose a path of peace and prosperity. They could side with Islamic extremism. Or choose peace for humanity.
Trump has been saying for several weeks that many nations in the MIddle East are ready to sign peace agreements. And now we've seen the first of those leaders come through. It was United Arab Emirates, the richest nation in the MIddle East and a great military power.
Trump asked UAE, what really mattered to them? And they said it would be to be able to safely pray at their famous mosque in Jerusalem. Then he asked Israel, what really mattered to them? And they said, so the surrounding nations would stop threatening us. And then Trump asked them to promise to offer those things to each other and shake on it. And they agreed.
The above video shows an unbelievable friendship agreement between Israel, UAE, and Bahrain.
This development comes as a series of steps Trump has taken to stand up for Israel. Needless to say, Benjamin Netanyahu is Trump's greatest fan. The incredible thing is that the leaders from those two Arab nations seem to be fans too.
