Steve, the accords were just a first step of an agreement which has never been attempted before. The issues you cite were probably in schedule, before this recent war. The Arab world did like the accords. Only Iran did not want the accords because they are shites, enemies of the Sunnites Arabs, the majority, and archenemies of Israel. This is not only my view but the view of many journalists and analysts here.
The accords have not been achieved personally by Trump, but by his administration. To be later stalled by the Biden administration for political reasons.
Trump: not a spiritual man for sure, but a businessman. So, he chose people who were successful businessmen or technicians to implement his ideas.
The accords have been, by words of all people here in Italy (third-party, neutral observers), a masterpiece of diplomacy started by the Trump administration and stalled for obscure reasons by the Biden administration.
I still don't know why you cannot acknowledge the good things started by Trump. He might have been obnoxious, detestable, stubborn until the end, but not everything he did was bad. Not my opinion, again, the opinion of most analysts in a context not tainted by ideology.
mccoy it is because he (Trump) can not admit being wrong or having made any moral and legal mistakes. He continues to believe he won and he is the legitimate president. He lives his own reality apart from any reality that even his administration believed in. In fact he either fired, or most of his staff left him with much criticism of his actions, policies and practices. Please remember, even Adolph Hitler loved his dog. And I’m sure Trump enjoyed sexually assaulting and misusing women which he was accused of and had to pay (to keep them quiet) many times. Not my opinion tainted by ideology but that of many women who have stepped forward saying they were rapped by him. I’m sure there were women that liked his abuse, or at least his money. But even that gets old with time. Besides Brother mccoy with your moral indignation about some other person we are both familiar with, I’m surprised that ideology means anything and Trumps depraved moral sentiments would make you flinch. There’s a difference between consensual sex and forced sex that people like the Fuhrer get away with only because of the abuse of money and power.
To take this talk a step further, we should look at this pathetic example of a patriot even be negotiating anything for this country that remotely sounds like anyone’s military. Here is a man who when it came to being drafted to fight for America: Trump made up injury to dodge Vietnam service, his former lawyer testified, and when asked his famous answer; “Would you want a president dumb enough to be drafted?” He also remarked about a Viet Nam war hero; Trump mocked McCain’s status as a war hero, stating that “I like people who were not captured.”
Since you brought up Trump’s administration… let us see just what one of the ones that negotiated many of the Fuhrer’s agendas had to say about him: “God help us”….
Never forget what Trump has said about veterans
Fishkill, N.Y.: John Kelly (photo), four-star Marine general and Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, recently confirmed what had been widely reported and multi-sourced — that Trump has open contempt for veterans, and by extension, active-duty military personnel. It should surprise no one that Trump is the same liar, self-promoter and hypocrite in dealing with veterans as he is with any other group. He sees veterans as a voting box to easily check off by claiming he’s the best patriot ever! He is a seditious autocrat and veterans who pay attention know that.
Kelly confirmed that Trump refused to attend the memorial service for Marines killed at Belleau Wood during World War I. They were “losers,” and besides, it was raining. Late Sen. John McCain ( decorated as a wear hero) was a “loser” for becoming a POW in Vietnam while former President George H.W. Bush was a “loser” for being shot down in World War II. Trump attacked the valorous reputations earned in combat in Vietnam of Marine and Army company commanders. He recently suggested the execution of the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Trump ordered that severely wounded veterans be barred from award ceremonies because “who wants to see that?” and “they make me look bad.”
Samuel Johnson wrote that “patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.” Trump is a fake patriot who denigrates real ones. Kelly heard and remembered all of Trump’s contempt for veterans and has confirmed it. His last words in an interview about Trump and the nation were “God help us.” Gerald Browne
Attorney General Barr for Trump…
Barr has since said Trump is unfit to serve as president in 2024, even calling his thinking a “horror show” at an event earlier this year.
“If you believe in his policies, what he’s advertising is his policies, he’s the last person who could actually execute them and achieve them,” Barr said in May during a City Club of Cleveland luncheon. “He does not have the discipline, he does not have the ability for strategic thinking and linear thinking or setting priorities or how to get things done in the system.”

The Earth’s temperature briefly rose above a crucial threshold that scientists have been warning for decades could have catastrophic and irreversible impacts on the planet and its ecosystems, data shared by a prominent climate scientist shows.
For the first time, the global average temperature on Friday last week was more than 2 degrees Celsius hotter than levels before industrialization, according to preliminary data shared on X by Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, based in Europe.

After a three-year delay, the US has become the first nation in the world to formally withdraw from the Paris climate agreement.
President Trump announced the move in June 2017, but UN regulations meant that his decision only takes effect today, the day after the US election.
