"You want to know the truth? Had I not come along, I think Israel would have maybe been destroyed by now. Okay?"Published in Hebrew in Israel in early December 2021, Trump's Peace was the first book about Trump's signature foreign policy achievements in the Middle East and quickly became a bestseller. It is based on a series of exclusive conversations between former US President Donald Trump and senior Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, as well as interviews with US secretaries of state, senior advisors and diplomats in capitals across the Middle East, and even secret service agents intimately involved in Israel's covert diplomatic efforts.President Trump's policies and decisions fundamentally reshaped the geopolitical map of the Middle East. The Abraham Accords, brokered by his administration, brought about peace and normalization between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan. The only part of Trump's legacy to receive bipartisan domestic praise and widespread global support, the accords could be considered the biggest diplomatic breakthrough of the century in the Middle East peace process."[Netanyahu] was very early [to congratulate Biden on the election results]. Like, earlier than most. I haven't spoken to him since. Fuck him. "In his book, Ravid goes behind the scenes of Trump's term in office and delivers exclusive insights into the secret discussions and agreements between Israel and the Gulf states. Many of the stories told here - especially those regarding the president's relationship with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu - have never been told before. With unrivaled access in Jerusalem, Washington, DC, Abu Dhabi, Manama and Rabat, Ravid is able to offer the most comprehensive, engaging and balanced account yet of those four dramatic years in the Middle East. This latest edition also includes a new chapter on the legacy of the accords and the Biden administration's relationship with them.
