Morocco agrees to Abraham accords, normalizing relations with Israel
Today President Trump announced that Morocco has agreed to become the fourth Islamic/Arab nation to sign the Abraham Accords, thus establishing normal diplomatic relations with Israel.
America gave Morocco an important concession as part of the deal. “Today, I signed a proclamation recognizing Moroccan sovereignty over the Western Sahara,” Trump added. “Morocco’s serious, credible, and realistic autonomy proposal is the ONLY basis for a just and lasting solution for enduring peace and prosperity! Morocco recognized the United States in 1777. It is thus fitting we recognize their sovereignty over the Western Sahara.”
Whether these deals will survive a Biden administration remains unclear. What is clear is that unlike any administration since the Carter administration in the late 1970s, Trump has successfully achieved the first peace deals between Israel and its Arab neighbors. His approach, different than the accepted wisdoms of the Washington establishment, succeeded where those accepted wisdoms had failed.
It is a shame that the unmitigated and irrational hate that so many on the left have of Trump has made them incapable of recognizing this accomplishment. The nation, in fact the world, should be celebrating these deals with enthusiastic joy. It is not, for these childish reasons.

Reagan is said to have been fond of this saying:
“You can accomplish anything if you don’t care who gets the credit.”
It’s another nice win. Those who want to celebrate it will celebrate it.
Happy Hanukkah.
Peace in the middle east. Something the Democrats just won’t stand for.
Good thing we got rid of this warmongering jerk.
Patrick Such blatant sarcasm! Keep it up, I am laughing my head off.
Iran will not be happy; therefore, the democrat party members will not be happy (IMHO).
Another country at peace, The Palestinians will never stand for it.
I’m sure the peace prize nomination committee is considering… “Joe Biden” to reward him for all his many accomplishments. After all, didn’t they give Barack Obama the peace prize for winning an election?
Before he even took office?
Max – While not the Peace Prize, Time magazine is greasing the skids of that nominating committee.
