'You're seeing a total geopolitical realignment in the Middle East against Iran and for Israel,' McCain says,

"The View" co-host Meghan McCain knocked the media for downplaying the historic peace agreement President Trump brokered between Israel, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Bahrain.

During a discussion on Wednesday highlighting the ABC News town hall that featured Trump, McCain pointed to his reference to the Abraham Accords that were signed at the White House earlier in the day.

"I wish this was getting more attention and credit," McCain told her co-hosts. "I know that it's hard to give any wins to the Trump administration, but I always try to be fair and call balls and strikes like we see it. You're seeing a total geopolitical realignment in the Middle East against Iran and for Israel. And there's rumors that Saudi Arabia could be joining."

The sole conservative voice at the ABC daytime talk show called the White House ceremony commemorating the agreement a "really big day."

I agree. I may not be Trump’s fan but this is a good thing.
I think that everyone involved, not only a Trump, deserves recognition. This is a historical event.

Now that the ice has been broken, hopefully more Arab countries will sign it, too. You don't have to like Trump to appreciate some of the things he has accomplished whether directly or indirectly.

I think (and hope!) that will be the case. I mean, not Iran, there’s zero chance of that now, but others may start joining in.

Nah. I heard the Palestinians weren't thrilled with this. When there's peace with them AND Israel I'll call it a sign.

That was sarcasm, lol. There is a lot of talk among evangelicals about it.

This is no "peace deal". It's a smoke screen. Israel has been dealing and trading with these countries for years.

Check this out if you will. Interesting POV.

Why is that a "big step"? Any one who actually follows the middle east knows this is the reality. Why make a big deal out of something that isn't really a big deal?

Palestinian with legitimate concerns.

Neither country is without fault and both probably contributed to the mess. Its getting to where even the God almighty couldn't broker a peace deal. But I agree the author isn't an Israel hater. I think it's a warning he feels Israel needs to hear.
