posted this in the Iran thread but maybe better here...

what do we think of the UAE and Bahrain normalizing ties with Israel? is it real? will it lead to anything?

since I'm seeing everything through an election-year lens, i keep thinking it's a trump administration ploy, to exaggerate the situation and brag about "peace in the Middle East, mission accomplished!". on the other hand, I don't see the Middle East as that big of an issue with US voters.

UAE/Israel relations have existed for ages, maybe it's significant that they can declare them openly, but in any case it's all for show. Netenyahu waving blank papers when he announced it apparently.
What's happening is that the mid east players are making haste to take advantage of America's complete incompetence on ME while the sun shines

That man has some of the deadest eyes I've ever seen -- like a shark or a doll or something. Genuinely evil looking bloke.

It's also the smooth cheeks, the fine bones, the air of some effete and sadistic princeling
