Biden Takes Credit for Trump Peace Deal in Middle East: 'I Laid the Groundwork'

One thing I find funny about Democrats is that they attempt to take credit for good things that President Donald Trump accomplishes, and refuse to take credit for the bad things that happen under their watch.

Former Vice President Joe Biden is attempting to take credit for the groundbreaking peace deal made by Trump between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). He clams that he and former President Barack Obama laid the groundwork for the deal to be made.

"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. I personally spent time with leaders of both Israel and UAE during our administration building the case for cooperation and broader engagement and the benefits it could deliver to both nations, and I am gratified by today’s announcement," Biden said.

 

However, the credit he is claiming isn't valid at all. As Breitbart reports:

In fact, the Israel-UAE peace deal was impossible during the Obama-Biden administration, for two reasons. The first was that Obama and Biden insisted on criticizing and condemning Israel, creating “distance” between the U.S. and the Israeli government. Biden himself was the administration’s point man in attacking Israel over its housing policy in Jerusalem.

The second reason was the Iran nuclear deal. The “agreement” — which was never signed by anyone — allowed Iran to become a nuclear power after a decade or so, and did nothing to stop Iran from threatening the Sunni Arab states. The U.S. lost leverage with the Sunni Arab states as a result. To the extent Israel and the UAE moved closer during the Obama-Biden administration, that was because the U.S. allowed the Iranian regime to become a greater threat to both.

The Trump administration reversed the Obama-Biden administration’s anti-Israel policies and withdrew from the Iran deal, building a new regional alliance that united the Sunni Arab states against Iran — and that made room for Israel.

Biden promised that if he and Kamala Harris are elected in November, then they will further build the deal. Somehow I doubt that would ever be the case.

Anti-Semitic Rashida Tlaib Refuses to Celebrate Israel-UAE Deal

It is no secret that Rep. Rashida Tlaib is anti-Semitic. She has made her feelings known time and time again. She hates Israel so much that she refuses to even celebrate the Israel and United Arab Emirates deal that makes a huge breakthrough for peace in the Middle East.

“We won’t be fooled by another Trump/Netanyahu deal,” Tlaib tweeted, “We won’t celebrate Netanyahu for not stealing land he already controls in exchange for a sweetheart business deal. The heart of the issue has never been planned, formal annexation, but ongoing, devastating apartheid.”

Black Lives Matter Backs Down After Real Black Residents Force Them Out

The Black Lives Matter movement is not in any way about black lives actually mattering. At this point, it's a front for Antifa to attack people and destroy businesses all while hiding behind the curtain of "social justice".

The movement doesn't really care about black lives, the only thing they care about is being whining little brats. In fact, most of the "protesters" aka rioters are young white people.
