Hamadeh Calls for ‘Abraham Alliance’: A Bold Vision to Unite America, Israel & the Gulf for Peace, Prosperity & Strength
In a landmark Jerusalem Post op-ed, Congressman Abe Hamadeh argues the time has come to transform the historic Abraham Accords into the defining strategic coalition of the 21st century — a permanent alliance built on shared values, innovation, and the will to confront extremism without apology.
Abraham Coalition
Peace Without a Single Bullet
Partnership — The Goal
Elected to Congress
It will be written by strong nations that defend civilization, expand prosperity, and crush extremism without apology.
That future belongs to the Abraham Alliance: the United States, Israel, and the pragmatic Gulf Arab states.”
In one of the most forward-looking foreign policy visions put forward by a sitting member of Congress, Rep. Abraham “Abe” Hamadeh (R-AZ-08) published a landmark op-ed in The Jerusalem Post calling on the United States to transform the historic 2020 Abraham Accords into something even more powerful: a permanent, integrated strategic coalition he calls the “Abraham Alliance.” The vision is ambitious, optimistic, and grounded in a record of real achievement — and it arrives at exactly the right moment.
Hamadeh, the first Arab American elected to Congress from Arizona and the son of Syrian immigrants who fled oppressive regimes in the Middle East, has spent his congressional career championing the Abraham Accords as proof that a new Middle East is possible. Now he is calling on the Trump Administration to build on that foundation and make it permanent. “President Trump and his team proved that peace in the Middle East could be achieved without firing a single bullet,” he has said — and this op-ed is his blueprint for what comes next.
🤝 From Accords to Alliance: A Permanent Strategic Coalition
The Abraham Accords were a triumph of diplomacy and proof that the Middle East’s future does not have to be defined by conflict. When the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco normalized relations with Israel in 2020 — brokered by the Trump Administration — the world witnessed what was possible when strong, pragmatic leaders chose prosperity over perpetual grievance. The Abraham Alliance builds on exactly that spirit.
As Hamadeh describes it in the op-ed: “a permanent strategic coalition between America, Israel, and Gulf partners like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain — not simply diplomatic ties, but integrated economic, technological, intelligence, military, cybersecurity, energy, and infrastructure cooperation designed to shape the 21st century.” This is not incremental diplomacy. It is a generational vision.
🏛️ The Six Pillars: What the Abraham Alliance Would Build
A unified regional air defense system — integrating Israeli and Gulf capabilities — to counter Iranian missiles, drones, and proxies and guarantee a secure zone for all member nations
Joint investment funds targeting AI, semiconductors, biotech, water technology, and medical breakthroughs — harnessing Israel’s world-leading innovation engine and Gulf sovereign capital
Direct trade routes from India through the Gulf to Israel and on to the West — potentially the most consequential new trade corridor since the Silk Road, and the foundation of an “Indo-Abrahamic” economic framework
Integrated energy cooperation leveraging Gulf hydrocarbon wealth alongside Israeli and American innovation in clean energy, storage, and grid security — delivering energy independence to all partners
Shared intelligence networks and an integrated cybersecurity architecture — protecting allied infrastructure, deterring Iranian and Islamist digital attacks, and making the bloc the world’s most secure digital zone
More than economics or security — a partnership rooted in stability, religious coexistence, entrepreneurship, and the shared conviction that civilization must be defended, not apologized for
🌍 The Strategic Opportunity: Why Now Is the Moment
Hamadeh’s case for urgency is compelling and timely. Iran’s position has been significantly degraded: recent U.S. military assessments document major damage to Tehran’s terror infrastructure and military capabilities, creating a strategic opening that will not remain available indefinitely. The time to build permanent structures of deterrence and cooperation is now — while the window is open.
Meanwhile, the geopolitical center of gravity is shifting. Europe is facing the consequences of decades of weak leadership — demographic decline, energy insecurity, rising antisemitism, and political fragmentation. The traditional transatlantic consensus that anchored post-Cold War policy is fraying. As Hamadeh writes: “The countries that embrace innovation, sovereignty, security, and economic modernization will define the next generation of global influence.” The Abraham Alliance nations are doing exactly that.
And the strengths each partner brings to the table are genuinely extraordinary. Israel is a world leader in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, defense technology, water innovation, and medical research — an innovation engine with no peer in the region. The Gulf states command sovereign wealth funds of staggering scale, world-class financial and logistics infrastructure, and modernization ambitions that are already reshaping their economies. The United States provides the unmatched military and economic foundation — the bedrock of stability that makes all of this possible.
- A permanent deterrent against Iranian aggression — without waiting for the next crisis
- The most powerful regional economic bloc in the world’s fastest-growing corridor
- Israeli innovation + Gulf capital + American power = an unmatched engine of growth
- An Indo-Abrahamic trade route that could rival the Silk Road in historical significance
- Integrated cyber and intelligence defense — the world’s most secure allied digital architecture
- Proof that peace through strength works — and that the Abraham Accords were just the beginning
🏅 Hamadeh: The Right Champion for This Vision
Born May 15, 1991, in Chicago to Syrian immigrant parents who fled oppressive regimes — Hamadeh grew up knowing firsthand what is at stake in the Middle East. Raised in Arizona, he became the first Arab American elected to Congress from Arizona in January 2025, after serving as a Maricopa County prosecutor and as a U.S. Army Reserve Captain and Intelligence Officer.
He serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee. His personal story — a first-generation American whose family escaped the very region he now proposes to reshape — gives his Abraham Alliance vision a weight that no purely academic strategist can match. He is not theorizing about the Middle East. He is building its future.
Previously, Hamadeh introduced the PEACE Act, requiring all American diplomats headed to the Middle East to receive training on the Abraham Accords and normalization agreements. He celebrated the Accords’ fifth anniversary in September 2025 with a simple declaration: “President Trump and his team proved that peace in the Middle East could be achieved without firing a single bullet.”
🔭 The Road Ahead: Turning Vision Into Reality
The Abraham Alliance is not a distant dream. It is the logical next step from the most successful Middle East diplomatic initiative in a generation. The Abraham Accords proved that normalization is possible. Now Hamadeh is calling for institutionalization — turning diplomatic goodwill into permanent structures of security, commerce, and shared civilization.
Whether the Trump Administration takes up this call — and the degree of congressional and Gulf support it can marshal — will determine whether 2026 becomes a turning point in the region’s history. But the vision is clear, the moment is right, and the coalition of willing partners is already assembled. As Hamadeh writes, and as the Abraham Accords themselves proved: peace through strength still works.
