Trump's Iran War Threat: Force Saudi Arabia into Abraham Accords

We've known it all along: The Iran scarecrow was always intended by the Americans to scare the Gulf Arab "allies" of the US into submission to American imperialism (inherited from the British) and into a forced but fake peace with the Zionist colony in Palestine. The Gulf Arabs, always anxious about losing their superficial, ostentatious and decadent wealth, willingly submitted themselves to American junky imperialism thinking like fools they are being being protected by the US. But now Trump is raising the stakes. He is using his Zionist-instigated Iran war as a direct threat to Saudi Arabia and other reluctant countries to force them into a fake peace with Israel. He doesn't give a hoot about what kind of peace, as long as he can brag about it to his herd of morons back in the US.

 

It turns out that a coerced fake peace with Israel is the ultimate goal of the Zionist-American alliance. On the long term, Israel cannot survive in isolation. But in order to integrate the region in which it violently forced itself, it must engage in relations, trade and the free flow of people and goods. That hasn't yet happened, despite decades of failed attempts. While its "peace agreements" with Jordan and Egypt have been around since the 1980s-1990s, they haven't really made a difference in the isolation experienced by a violent and irascible Zionist colonizer. The only stumbling block to a genuine peace and integration is the question of Palestine, which Israel is slowly eradicating and erasing from the map. Still, the hard-headed morons now leading the US and Israel, think that a signature on a piece of paper is all it takes to bring relief to Israel's isolation. They don't seem to understand the notion that only justice can bring peace, and as long as there is no justice - worse yet, only genocide, ethnic cleansing and extermination - for the Palestinian people, no signature and photo op will make Israel acceptable to the peoples of the region who feel a very deep connection with the Palestinian people.

The climax of Trump's "Iran scarecrow policy" is now taking shape under the banner of the Iran War. One of the unstated objectives of the Iran War appears to consist of forcing the Arab Gulf states, especially Saudi Arabia, down on their knees begging for US protection against the Iranian threat. During the pre-war period, that Iranian threat was more hypothetical than real. But the war has drawn the Gulf States directly into the line of fire, with Iran physically attacking the territory of the increasingly hysterical Arab Gulf states.

Now that the hysteria of the Arab Gulf states is at its peak, Trump and his Zionist handlers believe they have softened their Arab targets enough for the desired harvest: If those Arab Gulf states that have so far resisted signing off on the Abraham Accords, which they condition on the recognition of an independent Palestine, continue to withhold their fake love and friendship for the Zionist colony in Palestine, then the Iran war will continue.

Trump who is himself dying to end the unwinnable war he was dragged into by Netanyahu, now says that any agreement to end the Iran war should include a requirement for several additional countries, including Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, to join the Abraham Accords, the U.S.-mediated agreements from Trump’s first term aimed at normalizing relations with Israel.

Trump's proposal came as the imminent Iran deal faced criticism from fellow Republicans who favor a harder line on Iran, and it could add new diplomatic complications to the negotiations.

Trump said that Saudi Arabia and Qatar should “immediately” sign on, alongside Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt and Jordan, otherwise the Iran war will continue. In effect, Trump is leveraging his war against Iran to force those countries to abandon Palestine once and for all and become slave allies of Israel.  

Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates became the first countries to join the Abraham Accords in 2020.

In one of his latest posts, Trump said, “after all the work done by the United States to try and pull this very complex puzzle together, it should be mandatory that all of these Countries, at a minimum, simultaneously, sign onto the Abraham Accords.”

Trump has long hoped Saudi Arabia would join, but the kingdom has maintained that any normalization deal requires first establishing a clear path for Palestinian statehood. That's also key for Pakistan, which is among the countries that do not have diplomatic relations with Israel.

The president said he brought up the Abraham Accords plan with leaders during negotiations on Saturday. He said he would accept “one or two” countries declining to sign, but said most should be willing. He doesn't care which or how many countries bend the knee, as long as some do, so he can brag about having accomplished something out of this losing Iran war. Egypt and Jordan already formally recognized Israel and have long-standing peace treaties, although these "treaties" are more like permanent ceasefires than actual peace and friendship and open trade with the Zionist colony. 

It may be that during the latest phone conversation between the Zionist War Criminal Benyamin Netanyahu and the convicted felon and twice-impeached Donald Dumb the two agreed to put this new condition on the table, as a way to salvage some benefits from a very unpopular war.

“The invocation of the Abraham Accords at this stage gives an altogether new dimension to the diplomatic and mediatory processes because this issue was not on the agenda,” said Masood Khan, Pakistan’s former ambassador to the United States, pointing to the domestic pressure Trump is facing to strike a favorable deal. In other words, as Trump is contemplating a disastrous retreat from this war out of fear of a crushing defeat in November, he is hoping to show at least some gains for himself and Israel, notably a few pathetic fake peace and normalization agreements with genocidal Israel whose objective is to bury Palestine once and for all.

Thus, as Trump is reaching the end of his rope on the war and his reluctance at walking into the November midterms while prosecuting an unpopular war at home, he is desperately trying to score the ultimate and perhaps only objective of his war, namely to score gains for his Israeli bosses. By making a cessation of the Iran War contingent on forcing these pseudo allies into submission to Israel, Trump has now exposed the real objective of the US-Zionist alliance. 

The Abraham Accords are a set of diplomatic, economic and security agreements between the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain with Israel that were essentially forced by Trump during his first term. The UAE and Bahrain were later followed by such insignificant and Palestine-irrelevant countries like Sudan, Morocco and Kazakhstan.
