Peace in the Middle East has been elusive. It has been bedeviling and challenging because of Arab intransigence and delusional thinking. The Partition Plan of 1947 was accepted by Israel and rejected by the Arab world, leading to five Arab countries attacking Israel.

Inauguration Day is around the corner. Unlike 2016, when President Trump took the oath of office, 2024 seems to be calmer, tamer, and more celebratory. All the knives were out and being sharpened in 2016. Not so in 2024. President Trump’s landslide victory helped to unify the country. His enemies and detractors have retreated somewhat. Even Bret Stephens gave up his “Never Trump” status. Jeff Bezos is hanging out with Jared Kushner in Aspen, Colorado. Even Congressman Tom Suozzi writing in the New York Times called upon his fellow Democrats to work with President Trump.

President Trump’s call to move the population in Gaza to Egypt, Jordan, and other countries is a winning strategy. He is the first president to finally come up with a realistic and humane solution to one of the world’s greatest and most vexing problems.

At the beginning of 2024 I compared President Trump’s developing comeback to that of President Andrew Jackson’s ascension 200 years earlier in 1828 when he won the election with 55% of the popular vote. Andrew Jackson had also lost his bid for the Presidency in 1824 under dubious circumstances.

In 2017, I wrote an article entitled, “The Moral Imperative To Bring Malki Roth’s Murderer To Justice.” Malki Roth was a beautiful 15-year-old American girl killed with 16 others (including three other Americans) in the Sbarro Restaurant bombing in Jerusalem on August 9, 2001. Her murderer was Jordanian National Ahlam Ahmad Al.

The election of President Donald J. Trump transformed the world from the brink of World War III to a much more stable and safer place. The world’s gaping wounds began to heal.  The parade of Leftist titans, including Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Cook, and soon Jeff Bezos to Mar-a-Lago indicates that even the Democratic mega-donors realize that President Trump has already begun to make America great again.
