The Camp David Accords were a peace agreement between Egypt and Israel signed in 1979, leading to the first recognition of Israel by an Arab state. President Jimmy Carter brokered the deal between Israeli prime minister Menachem Begin, and Egyptian president Anwar Sadat, who both won the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of their achievement. Sadat was assassinated in 1981 by jihadis who regarded him as a sellout and traitor for making peace with infidels and Jews.
The Accords basically consisted of a commitment by the United States to contribute an equal amount of foreign aid to Egypt annually that the US provided to Israel. Israel agreed to give up the Sinai Peninsula and its oil wells, which Israel occupied since the 6 Day War of 1967, in what was dubbed a "land for peace" deal. Egypt agreed not to furnish or allow weapons smuggling to militants and extremists through its border with Gaza and Israel.
In 2012, the Obama administration puppet Mohamed Morsi, who was installed as president of Egypt as part of the CIA's "Arab Spring" operation, violated the Camp David Accords when he began supplying weapons to Hamas in Gaza. Morsi was rapidly deposed by the Egyptian Deep State which opposed the Muslim Brotherhood's agenda to terminate the peace treaty with Israel.
