President Trump has once again stepped into the dangerous middle of the Middle East with clear-eyed strategy, urging Saudi Arabia, the UAE and other Muslim-majority nations to join an expanded Abraham Accords as part of ongoing Iran negotiations. This is the kind of bold, deal-first foreign policy Americans wanted: leverage regional cooperation to isolate the Iranian regime and protect our allies rather than retreating into wishful thinking.
On Fox News, former U.S. Special Representative for Iran Brian Hook laid out the human and economic carnage the clerical regime has caused by cutting off Iranians from the world — noting a months-long blackout that has left ordinary people scrambling and, by some accounts, a million now out of work. Hook’s testimony should wake every freedom-loving American: this isn’t just an abstract geopolitical spat, it’s punishment of a population desperate for liberty and commerce.
The facts are stark and ugly: Iran’s internet shutdown stretched for months, one of the longest national blackouts in recent memory, and only began to lift as international pressure and the realities of war made the information chokehold untenable. The regime’s playbook — silence the people, hide the truth, crush livelihoods — has predictable results: economic collapse and social despair inside Tehran and beyond.
We should not soften the blow for the mullahs: independent reporting and outlets like the Washington Post confirm the blackout’s devastating impact on businesses, freelancers and online workers, undercutting what little private enterprise survives under Iranian misrule. If a million jobs are on the line, as reported by those on the ground, that figure is not a statistic to be shrugged at — it’s a moral indictment of a government that prefers repression to prosperity.
That reality makes President Trump’s push to fold more nations into the Abraham Accords not only smart politics but moral policy. By offering a diplomatic bargain to countries willing to isolate Tehran and embrace economic and security ties with Israel and the West, Trump is building a coalition that could deliver real leverage at the negotiating table — leverage the current approach sorely lacks.
Americans should applaud a strategy that prizes strong alliances, deterrence and clear-eyed realism over appeasement and muddled messaging. If conservative patriots in Washington want results, they need to back policies that punish tyrants while empowering ordinary people and sovereign partners who share our values.
The choice is plain: stand with brave Iranians and稳 with our regional allies, push the Abraham Accords forward, and use every diplomatic and economic tool to ensure that the regime in Tehran pays for silencing its people. Our country, our allies, and the millions of Iranians longing to be free deserve nothing less.
