‘Peace Has Never Shone Brighter Than Today In Middle East’.
Thanks to Donald Trump. Another fine achievement before he is swindled out of office & the old US sabre-ratting re-commences from the 'Joebama' administration?

From today's Telegraph;
'......So pronounced is the liberal bias that informs the committee’s outlook, that former President Barack Obama received the award in 2009 simply for being elected to office.
Thus, if there were any degree of consistency in the Nobel committee’s deliberations, Mr Trump – who has done more than any other president in recent history to further the cause of peace in the Middle East – would be a worthy contender for the prize.
Last week Morocco became the latest Middle Eastern country to sign up to the Abraham Accords, the Trump administration’s peace initiative that has made a significant contribution to breaking the stalemate in Israeli-Arab relations.
The bold initiative, the result of years of painstaking diplomacy by Jared Kushner, Mr Trump’s son-in-law, has already resulted in a major thawing in relations between Israel and the Gulf states, with Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates agreeing to establish diplomatic ties, and several other Gulf governments – including Saudi Arabia – said to be giving serious consideration to following suit.........'

Anything good Trunp may have done, and only the future can say how significant all this is, is more than undone by his shameful behaviour of the last few weeks.
He effectively tried to engineer a coup by disenfranchising millions of Americans. Thank God the era of Trump First is about to end for good.

Trumps aim is not fostering peace, he is building an anti Iran coalition.
And he has bought UAE, Qatar and Bahrain not with a new found love of Israel, but a promise of ending the arms embargo and selling them the most deadly of weapons that they were previously forbidden from buying.
Selling $billions of the most deadly high-tech weaponry to some really dodgy despotic undemocratic countries in the world, is not worthy of a Peace Prize.

Just fancy that...
// Morocco is reportedly set to receive 24 F-16 fighter aircraft from US arms manufacturer Lockheed Martin.
The US Department of Defense granted a contract on August 14 for the manufacture of 90 F-16 aircraft.
Morocco received US State Department approval to purchase 25 F-16 fighter jets last year, several outlets expect Morocco is set to receive the aircraft under the contract. //
