What I Saw in Israel Reveals Abraham Accords in Action
(Fox News) Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) - Earlier this month, I was in Israel, Bahrain and the UAE to see the impact of the Abraham Accords. These agreements spur economic growth, innovation, sharing of technology, and trade among former rivals. The Accords increase defense cooperation among partners that deters America's enemies, like Iran, and will help us defeat them if necessary. Most importantly, the Abraham Accords have defeated the false narrative that Israel was the cause of conflict in the region. It has always been the case that instability in the Middle East was driven by Iran, Syria, and terrorist groups determined to destroy Israel and attack and undermine any country that accepts the legitimacy of the State of Israel. We can never forget that Israel is a shining example of diversity in the region. Across Israel, Jews, Christians and Muslims work and live side by side. In fact, it's Israel's diversity that makes it such a target for terror from religious extremists like those in Hamas. These killers want to destroy Israel because it represents a modern world where Jews, Christians, and Muslims live together, enjoy each other's cultures and work hand-in-hand to advance their society.
