The United Arab Emirates’ mission to Mars is a major achievement for the Gulf country and comes seven months after the country launched its first interplanetary mission

That Israel and the UAE both had important milestones last year points to how important the current relations are. Israel and the UAE have many shared interests, whether it is a shared regional outlook about threats and instability, or the fact that both countries are close partners of the US. Both countries are also pioneering technology products, whether in fintech or food tech or other sectors, many of which have been on display, or will be soon, in joint ventures and exhibitions in the UAE which Israelis are taking part in.tary mission. snip----

I posted the article to present the tone, the flavor, and the change in attitude. Here we have a major Israeli News Paper writing about a scientific event, a mission to mars, but extoling the virtues of a nation that was recently a tacit enemy.

The American news is blathering anti Trump pro Biden balderdash and missing or ignoring a very important event in world history, the peace between the Arabs and Israel. That peace and the subsequent consequences perhaps out weigh all of the American domestic events. The peace will be President Donald Trump’s primary legacy. He sent his son in law to accomplish in his name what others had failed to do for fifty years.

The synergism both militarily and economically of the combined Arab states and Israel is so monumental that it is impossible to measure. From Tel Aviv to Riyadh or to Dubai is like hauling commercial freight From say Dallas to Los Angeles or Philadelphia. The opening of this potential trade is an important historical event.

Then there is the combined military muscle. Iran is contained by the combined militaries of Israel now allies with Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain an Qatar. America a is thus relieved of the defense of the gulf by the threat of the coalition.

The Obama second act comes on the stage with old lines not recognizing that there is now a totally new play. The old actors are ridiculous spouting lines that have lost their relevancy.

It is going to be fun to watch the truly positive changes in the Mideast and the fumbling of the biden types
