Israel has emerged as the new protector/leader of the Middle East. As it should be. Going forward (post-Trump), Israel and the Middle East will never again rely on America; America has proven fickle depending on who is in office (as has most of the Western world) and if a future terrorist entity threatens Israel and/or the New Middle East, it will fall on Israel to eliminate the terrorists quickly and efficiently without counting on Western "allies" (Erdogan, read the room for heaven's sake!). The strong new alliances coming to the Middle East (starting with Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan) will support Israel as their protector; the past 19 months have given them confidence that Israel can do the job alone. And they all know Israel will be the leaders in the economic, spiritual and political renaissance coming to the Middle East and will save the M.E. from a nuclear Iran. What will Israel gain for saving the Middle East? The peace and security they have always wanted, which means keeping all the disputed territories. Once all this becomes apparent to the rest of the world--that a wonderful new Middle East resembling the UAE/Dubai is emerging--the haters will STILL hate on Israel and the Jews ("But the Palestinians!!! They need their land back!!!"), even while they witness the Abraham Accords being signed and civilians celebrating in the streets of Lebanon and Iran and Syria (and quite possibly in Gaza). It will be fun to watch the Israel haters in the world try justify their continued anti-Israel positions while peace, prosperity and co-existence start to blossom rapidly in the M.E. There will be no thanks for saving the world from a nuclear Iran coming from the rest of the world (which will, in a few years, have more terrorist problems than the Middle East).

“…a future with stability and power, not with chaos and decay…”. Amen. This is better than Ian Fleming…
