President Trump brokered the historic Abraham Accords. Enabling Israel to normalize relations with the UAE, Bahrain, and later Morocco. Tragically, when President Biden came into office he appeased the Islamic Republican of Iran and the Palestinian Authority. Thereby halting the Abraham Accords. With President Trump in office, we will likely see the Abraham Accords get back on track. Kuwait may be the next country to join, and don’t be surprised if Saudi Arabia does the same before President Trump leaves office.

The strategy aims to pressure the incoming Trump administration through oil prices ahead of the midterm congressional elections by leveraging a surprisingly determined proxy force – all without a formal declaration of war.
