EA, his chances for reelection are predicated on his domestic policy much more than anything he would help broker in his administration's foreign policy. Building the wall and making Mexico pay for it; Repealing Obama-Care; Makin America Great Again. The Palestinian issue will be the 97th out of 100 items in the list of reelection priorities, I'm afraid to say.
How do you expect an ignoramus to even begin to understand the complications of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict when he doesn't even know the history of his own country, and actually favor the Palestinians wishes over Israeli ones? Hard to believe, bruh.
Jimmy Carter who was a democrat did a lot more than anyone else in brokering the Camp David Accords, as you very well know, but even Bill Clinton brought Yasser Arafat and Ehud Barak and made a legitimate effort despite it failing in the end. He was also a Democrat and these two alone did more for the Palestinian cause than any Republicans in the history of US presidents.
You realize that move by Ronald Reagan and Co. was nothing but a political ploy to consolidate their support and ally-ship of Iraq against Khomeini and the aftermath of the Iranian revolution that was barely 3 years old and the hostages were still captive? The Reagan administration even admitted years later that they were actually glad the Israelis did what they did once they decided to move into Iraq in 2003. Gamesmanship, only, but no real support whatsoever.
Obama actually stuck to his words and was completely against Israeli settlements to the point where the relationship with Netanyahu was very strained. The Israelis are super psyched that Trump is in office, although they would've been just fine with Hillary as well considering her undying support of Israel was much greater than Obama's. But I give Barack a lot more credit for standing his ground against Netanyahu and the settlements and actually straining the relationship with Israel, much more than any of the previous presidents did.
I wish I could share your optimism, bro, I really do. But do you honestly think that a business man, and not a student of politics (let alone history), who became president on a sudden and ambitious whim, and a billionaire, mired in controversy in just his first 100 days, who's lifelong intentions have been nothing other than to make money and deals along with some of the other biggest billionaires, wouldn't be influenced by the Jews who run the world's financial conglomerates? His legacy will be far more cemented by making the bankers and corporations of America richer and regulations-free than they already are by making the policy changes that favorably influence those deals --and only those deals -- and those who will be the beneficiary of those deals are none other than the elite Jews of America who hold a powerful and influential sentiment towards the growth and strength of the Zionist state. How can the poor, weak, Islamic, Palestinian cause ever be anything remotely more worthy to this individual's mind?
Well, IMO, there's nothing wrong with it but only if there seems to be a glimmer of hope. I don't even see a negative percentage of a glimmer of hope. Sorry to be so negative, but I try to be realistic based on the pattern of things I see.
And BTW, being an admirer of great quotes as you are and concerning Trump and his lack of understanding history (especially his own country's, let alone MENA) -- what was that great quote by George Santayana -- "
Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
My bad. I used your quote to make my point when it didn't even make the assumption I was addressing. I apologize. I do agree with you that a solid, joint, Arab pact against terrorism and security matters would be something he would want to address and make it a part of this administration's declared policy. Once he gets past the issue of terrorism and how Arabs need to work with America to dissolve ISIS and the likes and Israel's security is established under his remaining term, it will be very interesting to see what the view is toward Iran, considering all the mouthing he did during the campaign on how the Obama-brokered, nuclear deal with Iran was nothing but a fiasco and his recent rantings that Iran is not living up the the "spirit" of the deal.
BTW, if you guys are watching the news right at this moment, Trump is getting bashed for today's Washington Post article revealing a huge bombshell that Trump shared classified information with the Russian in last week's meeting! It has reached a new and unprecedented low. My goodness.
