President Trump to Netanyahu, Abass...

...Let teach you guys about the art of the deal.

Everyone else tries to achieve Mideast peace, why not President Trump?

That's not really what we want to talk about though.

We just saw an idiotic headline, 'Why Mideast Peace is so hard to achieve' or some such. The reader gets the general idea.

Some dumb-ass Millennial who just read an FP article about the region wrote that headline.

Jesus Christ, which sees appropriate.

Look at the damn place. PJ O'Rourke once laughed at the fact that in the region one drives past Roman, Byzantine, Crusader, Ottoman and British forts. To paraphrase, a drive along the coast is a history of failed foreign policy initiatives.

Try keeping track of the Syrian Civil War. You have the Allawite Gov vs ISIS, vs Sunnis, vs, Shia, vs Kurds, vs the Druze, with the Turks thrown in because without them things get a  little staid and boring.

Again, PJ O'Rourke, 'It's just easier for everyone to hate Israel.' Or as me old man used to say, 'Nuke the whole goddamn place'.
