Israel's political posturing notwithstanding, the enemies of Israel are moving forward, incrementally excruciatingly slow, towards what they believe is a potential culmination of combined objectives of terminating Jewish control of the Jewish state: an impossible task, but no one is willing to support that contention, especially not the 46th American Administration after its dismal attempt to play Middle Eastern politics without any perceptabel success. In only one aspect does this observer concede that something might have happened; PA leader Abbas took the opportunity to restate his perception that the 1967 lines of demarcation were still possible, though more than likely, his thinking goes back to eradication of those borders and the 1967 lines are just a stopping point.
Strangely, the near absentee political ideologies of the 46th Chief Executive on the same subject cannot be eliminated as being in similar alignemtn, if for no other reason than to simplify policy making in the Middle East, as it is being compromised in the background by darkened jet setting efforts to promote a nuclear Iranian Islamic Regime from all appearances. The only complication(s) are the competitive efforts of the Russian and the Turkish invasion of Syria, where the line in the sand drawn by the 44th American Administrative Chief Exectuive appeared as merely a mirage.
