Kosovo.
Then we did a deal with Sudan.
Then we did a deal with Morocco.
And then we got the GCC deal done as well, the tension between Qatar, Saudi, UAE, Egypt, and Bahrain.
And that was allowing us to create a pathway to then pursue the Israeli-Saudi normalization.
So we had so much momentum then that the goal was just keep getting more
countries to normalize relations with Israel.
Once you create the connection between people and create the ability for people to do business together, the ability for flights to fly between, then you would just start naturally having people coming and everyone has a smartphone today so they can then post and combat the misinformation that's been out there.
But this misinformation is not something that's new.
One of the
Characters who played a very big role in spreading the anti-Semitism and the violence in Israel in the 1920s was a guy named Haj Amin al-Husseini, who was known as the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.
He was very close with Hitler and Mussolini, and he was working with them to try to get some claims to the Middle East once the Jewish people were annihilated.
And what he did for a very long time was he did the same shtick, only it was before you had smartphones and YouTube, where he would say, the mosque is under attack.
These imperialist Zionists are coming in to try to destroy the mosque.
And he would use that to raise money from Indonesia, from Pakistan, from all over the world, and then use that threat to justify recruiting groups of young, vulnerable Muslim men and then
Getting them in the name of religious rights to go and kill people, which really is more of a perversion of the religion than I think the true essence of what Islam is.
I think Islam at its core is a peaceful religion, and I think that's where a lot of the great leaders in Islam want to take it.
But the people who use Islam or the mosque as a justification for violence, those are people who I think are really disrespecting the Islam religion.
Yeah, so I always believed in foreign policy.
I learned very quickly that the difference between a political deal and a business deal is that in a business deal, you have a problem set, you come to a conclusion, and then if you buy or sell something, you either have more cash or you have a company, so more to do, less to do.
