$1Trillion Deal - Did Trump Repeat Israel's Biggest Mistake? - Jeremy Gimpel: The Land of Israel

President Donald Trump is making waves around the Middle East. Um, he flew directly over Israel, kind of ignoring us, and went straight to Saudi Arabia and then Qatar. He secured investment agreements for America over $1 trillion with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, including a $600 billion pledge from Saudi Arabia, a $200 billion Boeing jet deal with Qatar, and a $200 billion in commercial deals with the United Arab Emirates. Specific agreements include a $142 billion defense partnership with Saudi Arabia preparing for Iran, a10 billion semiconductor project with the Saudi AI company Humane, and the UAE promised to invest $4 billion in Oklahoma in an aluminum smelter. Now, I don't know what to say. Those numbers are so big. When Netanyahu met Trump, he gave him a present. He gave him a goldplated beeper as a gift, a reminder to the beeper operation that wiped off his trying to impress Trump. Qatar gave Trump a $400 million plane. A goldplated beeper versus a $400 million plane. That is the story right there. With the eyes of a businessman with dollars and investment opportunities, it makes sense to fly right over Israel and go directly to Qatar. Trump is a dealmaker. He's not a diplomat. Israel was simply ignored this trip. Trump wasn't here for Israel. He was here in the Middle East for America, as he should be. And in the eyes of rationality, it's in America's interest to make good with the Arab countries who align against Iran and are interested in doing business with America. And Trump, he's not a traditional Biblebelieving Christian. He's a businessman and a dealmaker and that's exactly what he's doing. And there's an idea that Asaf who is a developer who is redhead who is a fast food loving immediate gratification western world represented by Donald Trump and Ishmael the Arab world will join forces in the end of days and unite against Israel. Now, I'm not saying, God forbid, that America is siding with the jihad against Israel, but Israel was totally left out of this trip, and Trump is closing deals. But here's my analysis of the situation. In Israel, there's an idea called the Conpsia, the conception. Israel was living under this paradigm, this delusion, a concept, a way of seeing the world they imagined was true but turned out on October 7th to be the exact opposite of the truth. They were living in a delusion that they were sure was reality. And what was the concept in delusion that Israel deluted itself into thinking and believing? After Oslo, Israel's secular elite in the security establishment of Israel and the courts and the bureaucracy that runs this country in their hearts really believed in a two-state solution. Israel believed that Gaza was a pilot, a pilot Arab state for the future two-state solution. It was like a test run. Israel will disengage from Gaza. Israel and the world will invest billions of dollars to build up Gaza, develop and help Gaza progress and eventually they'll come around and they'll join Israel as neighbors in the neighborhood and everything will just go back to normal. Israel thought the kamas leadership were corrupt. They knew the kamas leadership were corrupt, but they couldn't recognize their evil. They knew they were taking billions of dollars and funneling it into their own bank accounts. They thought, "Okay, they're corrupt. They're greedy. They're taking money." They thought that was it. Secular Israel believed the Hamas abandon their ideology for comfort and riches. I say secular Israel because religious Israel knows that even if you make a lot of money, you don't go around breaking Shabbat. You have integrity. You have values. You have what you believe in. You have God in your life. Religious Jews understand the kamas intuitively much more than secular Jews. The fake worldview that Israel's secular leadership held. Keep the money flowing into Gaza. Keep the kamas quiet and eventually the Gazins will be quiet and eventually they'll just come around. Israel had no idea. They didn't conceive that the Gazin leadership was not only corrupt, but they remained deeply ideological and religiously committed to death and war with Israel. The money went to enrich themselves and then the rest of the money went to building the most elaborate tunnel network in world history to destroy Israel and kidnap Jews. The Gazins never even consider joining Israel as neighbors. and their efforts either went to making themselves rich or to destroying Israel. Every map in Gaza in every home and in every school shows all of Israel as a part of an Arab caliphate, not as a two-state solution where the Jews have one state and the Arabs have another state. They just wanted the annihilation of Israel and Israel lived in this concretia in this concept that they deluded themselves. And I'll tell you what I'm seeing right now. President Trump is falling into the exact same concept that Israel fell into before October 7th. After meeting with Saudi Arabia, he met with Qatar, who's a known sponsor of the kamas, the kamas leadership outside of Gaza, were headquartered in Qatar. Al Jazzer, the news outlet that was set up among the kamas terrorists during October 7th, they're headquartered in Qatar. All of the college protests in America, those same colleges were funded ideologically by Qatar. They're not businessmen alone. They have a real ideology that's not about to change. And Trump is making deals with them like their business associates. But the concept that they are driven by business alone, it's just a mistake. And Trump is going to wake up to that mistake sooner or later. But it's not just Qatar. Trump met with the new head of Syria, Golani. Trump lifted American sanctions from Syria, and called the new leader strong and attractive. He lifted sanctions from Syria before receiving anything in return. And I just want you to watch. Here's a short interview with the new head of Syria, Golani, a former fighter and commander in al-Qaeda. Check this out. How did you think and feel on 911 at the time? Did you guys hear that? I just clipped it out so you would just understand the essence of the interview. He celebrated 911 and he said that every Muslim that's a real Muslim in their heart of hearts, of course they celebrated 911. He's just revealing what's really in his heart. And so lifting sanctions from a man who fought in a commander for al-Qaeda, celebrated 911. He celebrated October 7th. He's not going to change his conviction. Trump is a businessman. So he's looking at everyone in the Middle East like they're businessmen, too. But just like Israel thought the Hamas leadership were only interested in money and comfort, Trump is making the same mistake with the heads of these jihadist movements. And why is Trump making this mistake? It's the same answer as to why did Israel make the mistake regarding the Hamas? Israel's left-wing secular military security establishment saw in the Hamas what they have inside themselves. They projected themselves onto the kamas. The secular elites in Israel, they left the ideology of Zionism and Judaism a long time ago. And now they're looking for cushy jobs in honor and power. And they assumed the kamas was just like them. Trump, he wrote the art of the deal. He's making a deal. And he's assuming Qatar and the former commander of al-Qaeda want to do business, too. He's going to discover the person who celebrated 911 and October 7th is the same person today. [Music]
