Thanks for the clarification. In fact, you're the ONLY person I know with an opinion on the subject which has NOT fallen for the commentator lies. -- The commentators know that they cannot resolve the 9th Chapter (and I would propose ANY of the prophetic Chapters) but present their BEST False answer because it's all they have. Therefore instead of obeying the Angel's instructions in 12:4 & 9, they open their mouths with fabricated Scripture and fabricated History.
But as to the Trump/Kushner peace attempts, I suspect it will go the same way that Arafat negotiated. As I recall, there was a point where Arafat placed ALL his demands on the table and Israel agreed to every one of them. -- But Arafat still refused Peace.
So not only History, but also Scripture portends NO Peace Agreement until Jesus returns.
Thanks,

Well let's not get ahead of ourselves here :) I didn't state that I completely agree with you regarding the '93 peace accord being the "covenant with many" in Daniel 9, nor do I disagree either. It's the first I've heard of it, so please give me some time to investigate and research it before I can comment (and I'm loaded up this weekend with work, plus my "homework" regarding LDS, so please be patient with me - I'll get to it though, I'm interested in it).
If, and a big if here cause I don't know, '93 accord was not the "covenant with many" in Daniel 9, and if Trump and Kushner's peace deal is not it, then it could still be future. It could still be a peace deal that suceeds where Trump & Kushner's fails; like you said, it could go the way of Arafat's negotiations.
Or Trump & Kushner's peace deal could go through, with an Israeli PM that is, at least viewed as, more sympathetic to the Palestinians/Arabs.
I don't agree that there won't be a peace deal until Jesus returns (to clarify, Jesus' second coming when He touches the earth in Revelation 19:11-20 "11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.12His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.13And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.14And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.15And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.16And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LORDS.17And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.19And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.") because the battle of Armageddon is concluded when Jesus destroys the beast and his followers, unless you consider a victory in war a "peace deal"...
