The Spin


Anti-Israel narrative

The Abraham Accords were never about peace — they were about making Palestine irrelevant. Arab states took F-35s, Western Sahara recognition and terrorism blacklist removals in exchange for abandoning Palestinians, and not one signatory lifted a finger as settlements expanded, home demolitions continued and tens of thousands died in Gaza. Normalizing with Israel while ignoring occupation didn't bring stability; it green-lit the brutality that followed.

Pro-Israel narrative

The Abraham Accords proved that sidelining Palestinian rejectionism — not appeasing it — unlocks real regional peace. Four Arab nations normalized ties with Israel, and the UAE backed that commitment with a floating hospital off Gaza and massive humanitarian convoys, proving these deals carry genuine moral weight. When Biden reversed course and rewarded Palestinianism, terror surged and Oct. 7 followed.
