Why Worry?

Reader comment on item: If Trump Wants to Divide Jerusalem into Three

Submitted by Real1tyCheck, Dec 25, 2018 at 16:54

An astute analysis but just a cursory look at history shows the 'palestinians' (all 20-some million of them per the umma) will NEVER accept any self determining strong Jewish nation anywhere between the river and the sea under any circumstances, and even the Israeli left are averse to suicide. I think Trump means well and is right to remove Americans from danger in the ME while arming and helping allies against our enemies, but a peace plan is as ridiculous as the name sounds.

I worry because the historical pattern is that the powers get angry at Israel for the Palestinian misbehavior.
