Israel, the UAE and Saudi Arabia have already been working hard on normalizing relations lately, including a recent agreement to allow Israel and the UAE to fly commercial flights through Saudi airspace. Now, with this recent agreement including the country of Bahrain, things are moving rapidly towards stability in the region.
All of this is considered by many to be shocking because historically, Arab nations have tended to side with Palestine against Israel. However, changes in the geopolitical landscape have led to shifting alliances between nations in the region, especially as the Arab world feels more and more threatened by Iran.
The Trump administration's Jared Kushner and other Americans who were behind the deal are hoping that now that these four nations are on board with this peace deal, other areas in the region will also see fit to take part in the deal and the many benefits it offers them.
