I think any kind of peace agreement in that part of the world is good news, but what did Trump have to do with it?

According to this Al Jazeera article the secret contacts between Israel and the UAE started in 2003 under the Obama Administration. So the Democratics could claim this as their doing with Mr. Trump just closing the deal via his representative Jarad Kushner.

I don't remember Obama being President in 2003. I don't know. The article sure doesn't say he was but I learn new facts every day.

Ah.....2003...so it started under another Republican President. Don’t see how the Democrats can claim this as this doing.

You were in before me. I had to check on Wiki to make sure my aging memory didn't fail me.

It did not. I have a very poor memory and an IQ of 79 and even I knew that right away.

I think this is the part of the article you're referencing?


...Indeed, the UAE and Israel began their secret contacts in Washington in the chaotic years following the 2003 invasion of Iraq and elevated them to strategic coordination during the turbulent years of the Obama administration....

He's the complete opposite of a scapegoat, always willing to place credit on himself, deserved or not.


I'm waiting to hear how this agreement benefits the US? Will it lessen the amount of $$$ we throw away in the ME year after year after year?
