For Jews whose families were exiled from this region, the existence of a Persian Gulf state that defends Israel with our soldiers on its soil is something close to a miracle.
Hen, excellent article. It really does feel like the old Middle East is dying and something far more pragmatic is beginning to emerge. What Iran and its proxies hoped would isolate Israel may be doing the exact opposite — pushing pragmatic Arab states closer to Israel because they recognize the same threat.
And if the Iranian regime were ever to collapse and be replaced by a more moderate government that wanted peace rather than permanent revolution, imagine what that could mean for the region. That would completely reshape the Middle East in the best possible way. For all the darkness of the past few years, we may actually be standing on the edge of something far better.
Well, I need to give my crazy, unhinged American president the credit he deserves for brokering the Abraham Accords. I’m knee-jerking less and less, and paying attention more and more. It’s very complicated, this condition of being human.

The cognitive dissonance this will create among the Jew Haters in the US and worldwide will be a beautiful thing to watch.

Quite a surprise I may say. Let's see how this new order develops.
Hey President Isaac Herzog you should try some diplomacy at home with the people who get elected into power!
