Hormuz Update; The Holdup Explained
So it seems Trump was threatening Arab leaders to join the so-called Abraham Accords and normalize ties with Israel, at a time when Israel’s legitimacy is plummeting like a rock in freefall, with even some Western countries considering breaking ties with Israel and boycotting Israeli products. This would be a bigger political suicide for Arab leaders and governments than losing Hormuz. But it seems someone recorded and leaked his threats around 25th May 2026. And now the connection of the so-called Abraham Accords to the Hormuz holdup is now out in the open. On the same date, Saudi Arabia publicly announced its displeasure with the demands. I had keyed in readers to the Abraham Accords connection on 7th March 2026.
On the same date, Trump released this bizarre rant, in which he too admits the Abraham Accords are now part of the Hormuz Holdup, and unless they can blackmail Arab nations into signing, Iranian jetskis gunboats would be allowed to terrorize maritime traffic in the Straits. To quote,
Negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran are proceeding nicely! It will only be a Great Deal for all or, no Deal at all — Back to the Battlefront and shooting, but bigger and stronger than ever before — And nobody wants that! During my discussions on Saturday with President Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of The United Arab Emirates, Emir Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, and Minister Ali al-Thawadi, of Qatar, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah, of Pakistan, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of Türkiye, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, of Egypt, King Abdullah II, of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain, I stated that, after all the work done by the United States to try and pull this very complex puzzle together, it should be mandatory that all of these Countries, at a minimum, simultaneously, sign onto the Abraham Accords. Those Countries discussed are Saudi Arabia, The United Arab Emirates (already a Member!), Qatar, Pakistan, Türkiye, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain (already a Member!). It may be possible that one or two have a reason for not doing so, and that will be accepted, but most should be ready, willing, and able to make this Settlement with Iran a far more Historic Event than it would, otherwise, be. The Abraham Accords have proven to be, for the Countries involved (The United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, and Kazakhstan), a Financial, Economic, and Social BOOM, even during this time of Conflict and War, with the current Members never even suggesting leaving, or taking so much as even a pause. The reason for this is that the Abraham Accords have been great for them, and will be even better for everybody, and bring true Power, Strength, and Peace to the Middle East for the first time in 5,000 years. It will be a Document respected like no other that has ever been signed, anywhere in the World. Its level of Importance and Prestige will be unparalleled! It should start with the immediate signing by Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and everybody else should follow suit. If they don’t, they should not be part of this Deal in that it shows bad intention. In speaking to numerous of the Great Leaders mentioned above, they would be honored, as soon as our Document is signed, to have the Islamic Republic of Iran as part of the Abraham Accords. Wow, now that would be something special! This will be the most important Deal that any of these Great, but always in Conflict Countries, will ever sign. Nothing in the past, or in the future, will surpass it. Therefore, I am mandatorily requesting that all Countries immediately sign the Abraham Accords, and that, if Iran signs its Agreement with me, as President of the United States of America, it would be an Honor to have them also be part of this unparalleled World Coalition. The Middle East would be United, Powerful, and Economically Strong, like perhaps no other area, anywhere in the World! By copy of this TRUTH, I am asking my Representatives to begin, and successfully complete, the process of signing these Countries into the already Historic Abraham Accords. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
DONALD J. TRUMP
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Read carefully. First Arab and Gulf countries must all make a beeline to sign the so-called Abraham Accords, then Iran will be presented with the option of doing so. While Arab and Gulf countries must sign the Accords or lose the Persian Gulf, signing it is optional for Iran. And Iran will continue having the privilege of lobbing a missile or two at Israel (while lobbing more of them at Gulf states). They are aware that any government which signs the so-called Abraham Accords at this point will have its legitimacy imploded. And they don’t want the same to happen to Iran. They are building up the future legitimacy of Iran in the region. The Hormuz crisis would have probably not happened had Arab and Gulf countries made it clear that the Abraham Accords were never even an option. Now its a question of how far they can be duped.
