Here we go again. President Trump has thrown his hat into the ring on a US-Saudi civilian nuclear deal, which he claims hinges on Saudi Arabia’s participation in the Abraham Accords. Now, isn’t that convenient? The media’s quick to rally behind this narrative as if it’s a game-changer for international relations, but let’s pump the brakes. Outlets like CNN are twisting this into a glowing endorsement of Trump’s diplomatic acumen, neglecting to mention the players behind the curtain benefitting from this narrative—think corporate interests, energy lobbies, and arms dealers.

Meanwhile, Fox News isn’t exactly taking a backseat either. They paint this as Trump being the only rational player in a chaotic world, which is rich coming from a network that has cheered on his every blunder. They cherry-pick statements, making it sound like a historic turning point without diving into the problematic implications of a nuclear Saudi Arabia. Let’s be real—giving the Saudis nuclear technology is like handing a toddler a loaded gun.

Is there anyone in the mainstream media willing to challenge this agenda? Instead, we see a uniform parade of talking heads either praising Trump or fearmongering about Iran without acknowledging the seismic shift in power dynamics this deal could unleash. Get ready for the diversion tactics as they sidestep the real questions: Who truly benefits, and what are the long-term effects on global security? Spoiler alert: it won’t be the average American.
