Five years on: the Abraham Accords are IMPLODING

In September 2020, a White House ceremony with Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, and top UAE and Bahraini officials promised a new dawn for the Middle East. The Abraham Accords, heralded as a historic step toward peace and a realigned region, have instead become a monument to failed promises.

Five years later, the deal is not just stalledโ€”it’s crumbling. The grand vision of a pro-Israel, anti-Iran bloc has collapsed under the weight of regional realities.

Hereโ€™s why the Accords are failing:

๐Ÿ”ด An empty embassy: Bahrainโ€™s ambassadorship to Israel is vacant. Its first and only ambassador was recalled in 2021 and never replaced, with no plans to send a new oneโ€”a powerful silent rebuke.

๐Ÿ”ด The UAE’s red line: normalization was explicitly tied to Israel halting West Bank annexation. The UAE has now publicly warned that if Israel violates this condition, it will “put an end” to the Accords.

๐Ÿ”ด Gulf solidarity trumps ties with Israel: recent Israeli attacks on Qatar have forced Gulf monarchies to side with fellow Arab states. Cooperation with Israel is now a toxic liability for the UAE and Bahrain.

๐Ÿ”ด A flawed foundation: the core US-Israel strategy was to use normalization to pull Gulf states away from Iran. This has backfired spectacularly – after Israel’s attacks on Iran, Joulani-led Syria, and Qatarโ€‹ the Gulf states are beginning to coalesce against Israeli aggression.

๐Ÿ”ด The Iran calculation: a wave of regional instabilityโ€”from the war in Gaza to strikes in Yemen and the Red Sea crisisโ€”has proven to Gulf leaders that dialogue with Iran is far safer and more profitable than aligning with an unpredictable Israel.

๐Ÿ”ด A pivot East: both the UAE and Bahrain are now betting their future with BRICS and BRICS+, actively building strategic partnerships with China, Russia, and India instead of catering to Israeli and American demands.

they were meant to fail.
It accomplished the task perfectly: it openly wed Gulfies to Anglo-Zionists just before the Holocaust of all Arabs began in Gaza, fatally dividing the Arabs.

And the bombing has begun on them too.
This level of stupid has ended galaxies, much less desert dynasties.

Yes, ambitions maybe larger, but meant the narrower legerdemain, sucking in fools stepping where angels fear to tread. 

GULFIES were feted at WH ceremony โ€” the telling mafia kiss on cheek. 

Peacemaker gushed profusely of peace, satanic mockery, even as knives were sharpened.

Another of his trademark “negotiations” before attacking
