Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Thursday praised the Israel-United Arab Emirates peace deal announced by President Trump, but credited efforts of the Obama-Biden administration for the “historic step.
”Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the United Arab Emirates Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed released a joint statement Thursday after Israel and the UAE agreed to normalize relations.
The statement said that the “diplomatic breakthrough” was at “the request of President Trump,” and that Israel will “suspend declaring sovereignty over areas outlined in the President’s Vision for Peace and focus its efforts now on expanding ties with other countries in the Arab and Muslim world.”
The former vice president praised the move as “a historic step to bridge the deep divides of the Middle East,” calling the UAE’s offer to “publicly recognize the State of Israel is a welcome, brave, and badly-needed act of statesmanship.”
“It is a critical recognition that Israel is a vibrant, integral part of the Middle East that is here to stay,” Biden said. “Israel can and will be a valued strategic and economic partner to all who welcome it.”
Biden, though, said that “the coming together of Israel and Arab states builds on the efforts of multiple administrations to foster a broader Arab-Israeli opening, including the efforts of the Obama-Biden administration to build on the Arab Peace Initiative.”

Except Benghazi, that was that youtube dude's fault.
LOL...Nailed it!!
Great minds!!
If the Obama Biden administration was so critical to this most recent Israeli Arab peace deal, why didn’t it happen six years ago?
Ha!
Jeez, from reading the title of this news item I would have sworn I was about to read a Babylon Bee satire piece. Biden and the DemocRATS make it very hard to tell the difference sometimes.
“Maybe they should give Obama the Nobel Peace Prize....”
************************************
With his first Oak Leaf Cluster. And Heels Up should be given her first Nobel Prize now that’s she’s a VP candidate.
Barak wanted to destroy Israel with his Arab Spring. He helped ship arms to Gaza to kill Jews. Yeah, sure Joe.
Joe, buddy, Obama hasn’t been president for nearly 4 years.
“I doubt Obama could have brought Israel to the table to sign anything, let alone a Peace Agreement with an Arab Neighbor. How MUCH money was spent in the Obama Years promoting wars and slaughter”
That’s a good point, given that 500,000 people in Syria are dead thanks to Obama and Skunk Cabbage, along with probably 200,000 dead in Libya.
Saw the headline. Thought for sure this was John Semmens piece.
I was reading today that college students were asked about the student loan payment deferral, thanks to Pres. Trump. They were told it was a Biden proposal, and they were pleased.
I’d like to see someone do this to Joe Biden. Mention a Trump idea or achievement, credit it to Obama, and see what he says. :D
Bammy was likely an old vet at being pissed on going back at least to his Honolulu beach days...
