My longtime mentor, Donald Rumsfeld, is fond of saying: When a particular problem is intractable, enlarge it.
Granted, that sounds funny, but it may also be profound. Let's apply it now to the Israel-Palestinian war, which has clearly become intractable.

As an aside, I really like the new look FR! Very nice.
The problem is already enlarged; the solutions, unfortunately, aren't. Thus the intractable tangle -- of jibberish.
I'm with you. The US should stand back and do nothing.
Now you tell that to the crying Arabs, EU, UN, et al.
6,000 years of 'quid pro quo' - 'Peace, Peace!!! they cry, yet there is no peace.'
There can be no peace without faith and obedience to a 'Prince of Peace'. Jesus Christ is my 'Prince of Peace'.
4.5 Million Jews
Hundreds of Millions of Arabs.

The problem lies in the hearts and heads of some men of ALL races, colors, and creeds, IMHO.

Israel and the Palestinian Territories
Population today runs about 2:1 Israelis 6 million to 3 million. But, in the Palestinian territories
"..., Arabs will become a clear majority within twenty years. In 2020, the region will be home to about 6.4 million Jews and 8.5 million Arabs. By 2050, the Palestinian Territories are projected to have approximately 11.2 million individuals, compared with Israel’s 10.6 million."
The 'Population Bomb'???
Deadly myths blind us in peace process

You should really change your handle to luvswarmtea. The government might sue you for scalding people with your "hot" news. Are you affiliated with McDonald's or something? Maybe a relative of Ronald's. Do clowns run in your family? I just wondered because this is a very funny post. Thanks for the laugh.
