Jewish News Syndicate editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin joins show host Andrew E. Harrod to discuss the recent groundbreaking August 13, 2020, peace agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Under this Abraham Accord, named after Abraham, a patriarch claimed by both Jews and Muslims, the United Arab Emirates has agreed to normalize relations with Israel, thus becoming the third Arab state to normalize relations with the Jewish state after Egypt in 1979 and Jordan in 1994. Tobin will discuss various questions involving this significant development. Will other Arab states, particularly in the Gulf region like Bahrain or even Saudi Arabia, follow the UAE in normalizing relations with Israel? Are Arab populations, and not just states, warming in their relations with Israel? Does the Abraham Accord show the appeal of a strong Israel amidst regional problems and dangers like Iran's aggressive Islamic Republic? Are Islamist agendas losing support among Muslims? How does peace with UAE affect a final Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement? Tune in at noon on Friday to learn more.
