Trump & Middle East: Isreal & UAE Treaty

[NKBJ]

Well, never mind whether you personally think Israel (uh, maybe Judah?) should take over what we call the Middle East. The fact of the matter is that the Ezekiel 38-39 war hasn't taken place yet. Not yet. But things do appear to be forming up rather nicely if your world view includes scripture and news from Turkey. Any how, I kinda wondered if anybody had been watching this stuff.

An interesting article, looking at Russia's role and Erdogan.
That turkey needs some stuffing.

US Ambassador to the UN Kelly Craft- There will be another peace announcement in the next day or two and more to follow.

So far, fizzle on additional signatories... perhaps getting cold feet based upon the prevailing political winds?

I've been wondering about that as well. Ms. Craft should know, but they haven't delivered for whatever reason.

Yeah, the others may be thinking that Hunter will be visiting UAE and Bahrain in February and don't want any part of that.

The Saudis just publicly toasted the Palestinians on Arabiya TV the other day. The Saudis are onboard, they just have to prep the populace before they announce.

Prince Bandar bin Sultan: What I heard from Palestinian leadership in recent days was truly painful to hear. This low level of discourse is not what we expect from officials who seek to gain global support for their cause. Their transgression against the Gulf states' leadership with this reprehensible discourse is entirely unacceptable.

He scolds the Israelis but pretty much spends his time talking about how the Palestinians and the Arabs in general have screwed up for the last 70 years. This is big stuff compared to their past public positions. He would not be doing this if the King and the Crown Prince did not agree.

True, any faction in that region that isn't pro-Iranian has a vested interest in allying... which is a tribute to the Trump administration.

But, a finger to winds tells which way the prevailing winds blow... and the connection between body and head is tenuous in that part of the world. A new Biden/Harris administration could bring a second Obama-esque-Spring if they step too far astray of a predictable Biden policy change. I.e. 2016 is calling and wants a strong Iran back.

Interesting. I'm sure they still have to consider the extremists in their country, but this is encouraging.

Nearly 80% of Saudis in favor of normalization with Israel – poll

Sudan coughs up a bunch of $$$ to the US and agrees to recognize Israel

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politi...muslim-country-will-recognize-israel-n1081920

[FONT=&amp]The recognition of Israel appears to be part of a broader agreement by which Trump will formally rescind Sudan’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism. Between 1989 and 2019, military dictator Omar al-Bashir controlled the North African country, allegedly engaging in human rights abuses and sponsoring terrorism. After protests in 2018, a coup d’etat ousted Bashir from power in April 2019.

[FONT=&amp]“President Donald J. Trump has informed Congress of his intent to formally rescind Sudan’s designation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism,” the White House announced on Friday. “This follows on Sudan’s recent agreement to resolve certain claims of United States victims of terror and their families. Yesterday, in fulfillment of that agreement, the transitional government of Sudan transferred $335 million into an escrow account for these victims and their families.”[/FONT]

Trump has gotten 3 nations to recognize Israel, and normalize relations. Is this another Nobel Peace Prize nomination?

Four Muslim-majority nations, three of them Arab: UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, and Kosovo. And he got Kosovo and Serbia to sign an economic cooperation agreement plus both will open embassies in Jerusalem.

He failed with Iran. He hasn't even set up his concentration camps. I'm starting to think he might be the worst Hitler ever.

And not a peep on our enemies propaganda machine media and social media companies!

Absolutely astounding and deafening silence! Wow, just wow.

Well, you know those Africans LOVE to send boatloads of cash in hopes of making a deal.

A lot of background behind the state of belligerence between Israel and Sudan over the years, recent secret delegate trips by Israel and the US to Sudan and the near-term concrete changes.

Honestly, he has done things that should’ve made him a legitimate contender.... absent some other things. Taking kids away from families, building walls, and cutting back on legal immigration, regardless of the benefit to the respective nation doing so, are always going to be disqualifiers for those who choose the award. I don’t think that is too controversial a statement to make.

Who knew that we people said that, they were thinking abroad, rather than domestically?

Does not ending Wars that you call endless Wars and instead perpetuating those Wars count as starting line since technically you were going to end it?
