Trump's shuttling visit to the MENA region. What's the new paradigm for peace?
I touched upon the mystification towards the way how Saudi leadership hosted president Trump as it's the first formal ceremony has ever held throughout the history of the Royal Family. Those viewers and commentators including Americans themselves felt grumpy at the exaggerating way that Trump doesn't deserve to be treated as such, it didn't go beyond their expectation. I would say that, don't expect Saudis to be cold-hearted towards Trump, the situation there requires inevitably staunch allies. Furthermore, it was not the first time that Saudi leadership lavishly hosts an official figure, there had been such hospitality where a band of traditional dancers and drummers with their instruments and fanfare warmly greeting an official guest.
The former ousted Iranian president Shah Bahlavi had been hosted with a magnificent hospitality by Saudi Arabia in 1975.
The ceremony featured Trump as an emperor though his incendiary discourse at his electoral podium towards his plans for Islamic affairs especially his policy of clamping down immigrants coming specifically from some Islamic countries he had mentioned. However, everything was proven to be a political maneuverability, it's simply the high court fended his attempt off.
Conspicuously, Saudis prefer the way that shows their lavish hospitality, it was just a wave of indignation that the masses feel toward Trump. Otherwise, Saudi formal protocol is the same, i however, can't overestimate if Saudis paid more close attention to their guest Trump.
What is breathlessly waiting for right now is to catch the fact of what's the new strategy for stability under Trumpism? Somebody told me, "don't wait for man... as usual... billions of dollars of weapon deals." Isn't as usual? Yup.
Anyhow, in the Israeli-Palestinian visit, Trump as usual building on his predecessors' attitudes concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, nothing new, nothing promising. As such, this cause will be suspended until further notice.
Chronologically, the U.S. presidential visits to the Holyland began with president Richard Nixon who set off on a journey in June of 1974, his visit came to rape up what had been ruined during the War of 1973 "Yom Kippur" with Egypt that was reeling from. Nixon asserted on the final status of that war paving the way towards peace agreement that Nixon had still no strategy for. Furthermore, Nixon tried to convince the Israeli leadership regarding the necessity of military evacuation from the Sinai Peninsula. Nixon at the time delineated the fact of being the first U.S. president to set out on a journey for political compromise after two painful crises the aforementioned war and "Oil Embargo."
In March 1979, President Jimmy Carter topped the list as a second president to visit the area, his keynote at Israeli Knesset came to strengthen the final pillars of the Peace Treaty with the Egyptian side.
Up till then, the Palestinian side wasn't that remarkable partner in the peace process, the representative of the Palestinian people "Palestinian Liberation Organization PLO" was still in the military confrontation with Israel from South Lebanon.
President Bill Clinton was characterized by the longest visitor to the region throughout the era of the newborn Oslo Peace Accords of 1993 between both Israel and Palestinian side with his four consecutive presidential shuttle visits began in October 1994 when he met with Israeli officials to discuss the insinuations of the peace agreement. In Nov 1995 arrived in Jerusalem to attend the funeral of prime minister Yitzhak Rabin. In March 1996, came again with a security plan for countering the wave of violence that broke out in that time, but he didn't meet up with the Palestinian leadership that newly had conducted its first Legislative Council election in January of the same year. And then, his final visit to both sides in Dec 1998 especially in Gaza Strip to attend the inaugurative cutting ribbon event at Gaza Airport which considered a new hope where president Clinton stepped forward implementing the items of Oslo Accords on the ground step-by-step.
The series of these official visits continued with former president George W. Bush in Jan 2008 during his second term, he met both leaderships in Israel and Palestine, he asserted on the significance of exerting more efforts for keeping the Peace Agreement viable, he stated that "this agreement is a valuable treasury must not be compromised." On the other hand, he showed up at the 60th anniversary of Israeli independence.
With Barak Obama, we come to almost an end until the eve of the Trumpism era. He landed in Israel where he met with the leadership there in March 2013, and as usual, he confirmed the right of the Jewish State of Israel to be secure in peace side-by-side with its neighbors, then met with PA president Abbas.
To recap, I can't find anything distinguishable in this presidential experience on Israeli-Palestinian conflict other than condemning illegal settlement expansion in the Palestinian Territories that supposedly is the area where the emerging Palestinian State according to the final agreement, it includes the sensation of sustainable peace that Jimmy Carter assiduously worked for and he documented it in his book "Palestine: Peace not Apartheid." He, moreover, condemned Israel on several occasions and all the time calls for recognizing the State of Palestine.
At the moment, let's keep watching out what's the new peace project that Trump will come up with which might be entirely changeable to this repetitive rotine of fruitless peace ventures so far.
