The problem with any “agreement” involving practitioners of Islam is that the religion makes mandatory any agreement or lie to further the religion. That means no meaningful agreement is possible...ever. Everyone involved knows this. Any agreement by anyone will be used as an opportunity to rest and rearm. And, while such a religious requirement may be great for Islam, it dooms the practitioners to a permanent state of war. There can be no golden age of peace and prosperity. The people of Islam are hamstrung by a philosophy that, while great for the leaders, is horrible for the common people who will be kept forever poor, uneducated and subservient.
Great, now China will be responsible for the ongoing failure of the Middle East. Protests in the streets burning the Chinese flag in four, three, two...
Unlike the U.S., the Chinese have no compunction about retaliation. It wouldn’t be a military invasion, but if the ‘Arab Street” starts protesting, look for some variation of influenza to show up.
There has been significant progress with the reform of Islam in Saudi Arabia. It is the only thing that has made President Trump’s vision manifested in the Abraham Peace Accords between Saudi Arabia, Israel and other ME states.
Radical extremists such as leftist and Islamicist terrorists have always been the enemy of civilization. We need to look beyond grouping all Islam in the same group as the radical, extremists which every religion/sect seems to spawn.
President Trump envisioned this new peace and embraced the efforts of the Saudi and Israelis. To honor President Trump, would easily reset my thoughts on what could be achieved in working with people determined to reform Islam, with great sacrifice, into a more modern and forward thinking mindset. If President Trump and Israel can trust them I believe we can work with them as well.
