One of Hamas’ stated objectives, when the Palestinian militant outfit launched the October 7, 2023, attacks against southern Israel, was to derail the Abraham Accords normalization process between Israel and Arabs.

Has Hamas succeeded in the objective, as Israel’s war with the militant group entered its tenth month earlier this month?

What challenges has Israel’s “Operation Swords of Iron” brought to the Abraham Accords? 

How has the Biden-Harris administration undermined and neglected the Accords, and what must a future Republican administration and Israel do to fix any damage the normalization process suffered due to the Palestinian attack on October 7?

To answer these questions, Andrew Jose, host of Strategic Wisdom with Andrew Jose and the Andrew Jose Show, sat down with Aryeh Lightstone, former U.S. Special Envoy for Economic Normalization and one of the architects of the Abraham Accords. Aryeh is the author of the book Let My People Know: The Incredible Story of Middle East Peace―and What Lies Ahead.
