President Trump on Friday announced that Bahrain has agreed to normalize relations with Israel, another diplomatic win for the president coming after a similar agreement with the United Arab Emirates just last month.

 

 

 

 

“This is really something special, very, very special," Trump said in the Oval Office, predicting that the region "will become more secure and prosperous" as a result of the diplomatic moves.

 

"The sand was loaded up with blood, and now you’ll see a lot of that sand will be loaded up with peace," he said.

According to a formal statement issued by the three countries, they agreed to "the establishment of full diplomatic relations between Israel and the Kingdom of Bahrain."

“This is a historic breakthrough to further peace in the Middle East. Opening direct dialogue and ties between these two dynamic societies and advanced economies will continue the positive transformation of the Middle East and increase stability, security, and prosperity in the region," the statement said.

There is something we have to ALWAYS remember, the Arab/Muslim world is a different world than here in the West....ie 1000 years ago is 3 weeks ago, the hatred Antisemitism is not going away just because a treaty was signed.

I hope and PRAY the movement toward peace continues, even after the fall of the Mullahs in Tehran. We'll see.
