The article emphasizes a pivotal moment for Middle Eastern diplomacy, likening it to historical turning points following major wars. It tells President Trump that although he may not be engaged with the complicated legacy of Jewish and Arab histories, both groups are watching his potential to significantly impact the region’s future.
