President Donald J. Trump’s remarkable effort to bring peace to the Middle East goes all the way back to his speech to the America Israel Public Affairs Committee on March 22, 2016.
Then-candidate Trump said:
“In Palestinian society, the heroes are those who murder Jews. We can’t let this continue. We can’t let this happen any longer.
“You cannot achieve peace if terrorists are treated as martyrs. Glorifying terrorists is a tremendous barrier to peace. It is a horrible, horrible way to think. It’s a barrier that can’t be broken. That will end and it’ll end soon, believe me.
