    WHO totallyvfailed the world as far as COVID and CAUSED more spread and deaths. What great environmental accomplishment does the little girl have other than screeching at people with hyped up information and why does that out ranked THE PEACE accomplishments in the Middle East by the Trump administration?

    I think he would be the first to condemn their LACK of peace and the violence and anarchy which they promote in which they engage.

    They accomplished PEACE agreements, which those you seem to support saidbcould never happen, which will stabalize the area and yes out pressure on Iran to change not only policy but their leadership and force the Palestinians towns their demands on no Israel and negotiate a peaceful settlement.
    What do you think Biden is going to do, stop that?

    That dude is up for war crimes for one war - and the second charge for another war is coming to a theatre near your home soon - would be some ironic if this Elephant got loose during Biden's term.

    Trump receives Morocco's highest award for Middle East work: official
    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday received Morocco’s highest award for his work in advancing a normalization deal between Israel and Morocco, a senior administration official told Reuters.

    In a private Oval Office ceremony, Princess Lalla Joumala Alaoui, who is Morocco’s ambassador to the United States, gave Trump the Order of Muhammad, an award given only to heads of state. It was a gift from Morocco’s King Mohammed VI.

    White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and Middle East envoy Avi Berkowitz received other awards for their work on the Israel-Morocco deal, which was reached in December.

    As I said above........

    How profound! Can you imagine the gains made by AIPAC since 1967, or would you rather not?

    The people behind BLM do not promote violence in any kind of way.
    You can't say the same about Donald, with his fight like hell or lose your own country.

    This theme got white privilege written all over.

    Morocco claims the area called "Western Sahara". Nobody in the world accepted their claim of those lands they want to annex as their own. And so enter Donald who said the US will recognize the Western Sahara as part of Morocco in exchange of them recognizing Israel. It's all that shallow. The US has no authority over the Western Sahara to say if it belongs to Morocco in an unilaterally decision.

    As an example:
    The world does recognize Palestina as a state. They had a vote on it.

    Lining up alliances does not always lead to peace. Or stability. The real battle in the Middle East is between Arabs and Persians. In a fair fight, the Persians would win, but the US props up the Arabs, of which the Jews are a tribe.

    Well you can't do it without it can you. And you think we should support Iran that they are the leading driver of peace in the region?

    And we are closer to peace in the region that ever before. Now if the Palestinians would get rid of their terrorist leaders and support and agree to live in peace with Isreal which this will put pressure on them to do......

    What peace did BLM manage to accomplish?

    Well BLM burned down several cities, killed cops, killed civilians and children...so they sound peaceful to me (sarcasm). They sound a lot like Palestinians to be honest. Just out for blood.

    I am quite certain that an average person living in Iran has massively more rights and freedoms, access to power than does one living in Saudi Arabia. Osama bin Laden and his crew came from Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has been ruthlessly demolishing its neighbor with constant bombing that has been going on for years. Saudi Arabia is run by a ruthless family that kills their critics. Iran’s political leaders are elected through popular vote. The UAE is a collection of tiny absolute monarchies. The Israeli treatment of the Palestinian people has been one of the worse human catastrophes in modern history.

    The Semites, the Arabs and the Jews have a long history of leveling violence upon their own people, of neighboring tribes. They are a people for whom the Enlightenment missed. Democracy sees no light of the day, as their authoritarian rulers keep the people hidden in the dark under their thumbs. When oil riches were found, did the people prosper. No, only the rulers and their families, who live in fabulous palaces. Dissent can cost one, one’s life. That is the alliance that you are cheering.

    Pff. The entire world agreed what Israel is, and what is occupied. Israel signed the Geneva Conventions where it states that you can not colonize lands that you're only occupying. It's in the same paragraph about ethnic cleansing. So Israels job is simply put complying with the Geneva Conventions and get their war criminal civilians out of the West Bank including East Jerusalem. And than there is the issue that Israel must return the lands of the +700.000 Arab civilians they ethnically cleansed. Or at least, make a fair compensation of what the real estate is worth now. And indeed, the costs are astronomical, but that's what you get when you go about ethnic cleansing and colonizing from civilians.

    It's a fight to end racism. A thing that plenty of Americans keep pretending isn't there, while it just is.

    Lots more than there was and was heading down a path to an even higher degree. But now we have a President who supports Iran over our allies.

    Well, they sure aren't getting the "Smokey Bear" award.

    It just shows what a crock the Nobel prize has become. Obama got one for being black.

    Lots more than there was? With Israel and the West committing military aggression against Syria on a daily basis?

    It sounds like you're not quite sure what peace is. :roll:

    Trump only "aligned" with dictatorial regimes? Did he align with Iran and China like Biden want's to do?

    What makes you so certain?

    So what that is where OBL "came from" is every government now responsible of any act in which some who "came from" there commits now?

    And the Trump administration has done more to erase those tensions and conflicts than modern President and that should be noted with the award of the Prize certainly NOT BLM which has brought violence and destruction across the country and certainly NOT peace.
