President Trump made history when he helped facilitate peace deals between United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel.
Rep. Ilhan Omar believes Biden should just tear that all apart.
Omar sent out a tweet that claims Trump’s peace deals in the Middle East were actually “arms deals” to human rights abusers.
It’s clear from Omar’s statements that she is trying to wreck the peace between Israel and its neighbors all in the name of human rights.
Rep @IlhanMN calls on Biden to rethink US foreign policy and calls specific attention to de facto Israeli annexation. “Ignoring the suffering of the Palestinians runs counter to our most basic values and threatens our national security.” https://t.co/PSyZCJkm2B

He recently inked so-called “peace deals” between the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel. The only problem? They weren’t peace deals. They’re arms sales to human rights abusers, designed to empower the Gulf States and increase the risk of war with Iran.

Fox News reported the story:
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., laid out a scathing attack on President Trump’s foreign policy Friday, arguing his Middle East agreements weren’t actually “peace deals” but arms deals that should be reversed by the next administration.
“[Trump] recently inked so-called ‘peace deals’ between the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Sudan, and Israel,” Omar tweeted, referring to deals that preceded Trump earning two Nobel Peace Prize nominations.
“The only problem?” she added. “They weren’t peace deals. They’re arms sales to human rights abusers, designed to empower the Gulf States and increase the risk of war with Iran.”
Her tweets came after The Nation published an op-ed in which she attacked Trump for working with the UAE, noting the nation has been accused of war crimes in Yemen and “has also been credibly accused of committing war crimes in Libya.” She went on to slam Bahrain as a “brutal dictatorship.”
Many of her criticisms echoed conservative arguments for exiting the Iran nuclear deal, which she lambasted Trump for doing in Friday’s op-ed.
In 2019 Ilhan Omar was banned from traveling to Israel due to her hate towards the Israeli government.

It would show great weakness if Israel allowed Rep. Omar and Rep.Tlaib to visit. They hate Israel & all Jewish people, & there is nothing that can be said or done to change their minds. Minnesota and Michigan will have a hard time putting them back in office. They are a disgrace!

Ilhan Omar is not a friend of Israel and her rhetoric shows it.
