President Donald Trump heralded “the historic dawn of a new Middle East” as work begins on the next phase of the peace deal he brokered.

“We had a lot of help from a lot of people that you wouldn’t suspect,” he said in a speech before the Israeli parliament yesterday, crediting the leaders of the Arab and Muslim world as well as Israel for securing the cease-fire in Gaza and exchange of hostages and prisoners. “It’s an incredible triumph for Israel and the world to have all of these nations working together as partners in peace.”

Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid called on his nation to “prove ourselves worthy of what has been achieved.” He cited the words of a woman at an Oct. 7 memorial last week whose mother and daughter had been killed by Hamas: “We don’t want revenge. We want redemption.”

“Today,” said Mr. Lapid, “the redemption begins.”
