| The Middle East, what a wonderful place. =D
Well there are a lot of problems in the middle east. Lets take a look at recent history.
After the first World War. Churchill made a lot of agreements in the middle east. That was how trans-jordan was created. But i digress. Churchill promised Palastine to the Arabs/Palasitine's. But in true British Imperist fashion. He also promished the same land the the jews.
In the Suez crisis. The British and the French, encouraged Israel to attack Egypt. So they could land " Peace Keepers" at the Suez Canal. Therefore reclaiming an important assect.
There are two main problems.
One as a lot of people mentioned is the funding from the USA. Now i believe that this will never stop. As far aa i am aware. Please correct me if i am wrong. But no US president since the war of indepence has gotten into power. Without the backing or support of the jewish community.
Two. As one poster mentioned. You cannot compromise with terrorist. Or something like that. Put basically, Blackmail. If i don' t get my way, i blow myself up..
I am of the opion that, if you can not change some facts no matter how hard you try. Then you should concentrate on something that you can change.
I read a really good book a few years ago. In it is what i thought was a really good solution. It is Tom Clancy'' s - Sum of all Fears. Read it if you get a chance.
Basically, the Arabs took the moral high ground. In ture Gahdi style, they held peaceful demonstrations. Which forced the Isrealies into a peace settlement. This also included, turning the Holy city into the same as the Swiss guard indepent state in Italy.
What goes 'up', must come 'down', unless it goes around and round. |
