The agreement itself was dramatic and impressive. It may have been the Trump administration’s only major diplomatic achievement in the region, and it was certainly one of the high points of Israel’s foreign policy during Netanyahu’s 12 years in office. When Morocco and Sudan later joined the normalization agreements it added even more feathers in his cap.
Nevertheless,
their strategic regional impact has been limited. Israeli defense
sources say the main achievements of peace with the UAE have been
economic and technological. As Netanyahu hoped, Emirati sheikhs have
demonstrated great interest in making large investments in Israel.
Haaretz remains upset, like John Kerry. For decades, "no peace with other Arabs until the so-called Palestinians get what they want!" And suddenly it turned out to be wrong. So lie about it. Even as Israel makes contact with more countries and integrates into more organizations, run headlines like this to make people think the opposite.
