Baker sounds like Jimmy Carter.

During the time Baker was around I remember a cartoon in the local newspaper and it had a picture of Assad of Syria (papa Assad) and it said “Yes, we want to make piece with Israel... Many pieces” Nothing has changed.

Appoint Ann Coulter as ambassador to Israel. And tell her to bring Hell and a Bible with her.

Isreal does not need s lawyer: just friends who can descry right and wrong, and apply force of ideas and might in the service of right.

Actually a lot has changed. The real conflict in the middle east is between KSA and Iran fighting proxy wars with each other(Syria and Yemen) while Turkey makes noises about getting the Ottoman empire back together. Israel has an unofficial alliance with the KSA and Egypt against Iran.

How many decades has America tried to broker peace?

I came across an old photocopied news clipping some months back, from 1966 I believe, and the article used the phrase 'middle-east peace process' in relation to Israel. I chuckled a bit to myself about how things haven't changed a bit in the media for fifty years.

The Palestinians are vermin. Back to Jordan with them.

As for the oil, it is only that oil that empowers the muslim scum. Without it, they are nothing.

Ann Coulter could be to Trump what Samantha Powers was to Obama. The main difference is most the time, Ann lives in the real world.

They don’t need a lawyer to be an honest broker. They need a strong bad assed friend standing beside them, picking good guys and bad guys.

The honest broker crap hasn’t worked.....ever.

He must be 90 by now. Losing his mind. He should be in a rocking chair playing with great grandchildren not on tv

The end game is for Israel to annex all their ‘occupied’ territory and evict the Arabs from the refugee camps to Jordan Egypt and Syria.

I like the way you think, and agree completely. No more long drawn out games. Just win this thing and get it over with. And if a bunch of Arabs get killed in the process, they brought it upon themselves, so be it. Too much Jewish blood has been spilled in previous "brokered solutions".

Granted. But the point is, nothing has changed in the sense that Israel is surrounded by hostile forces that want to make it into pieces, no matter how you look at it. If the enemy of your enemy is your friend, it's not a sound basis of a lasting friendship. Just a basis for short term political goals and a false peace that could not last until there are generations of Changed attitudes.Nothing has changed in thousands of years for the Jewish people in the sense I am speaking of.

It goes way beyond politics and regional conflicts of the past decades. Names and alliances may have changed but the hatred of the Jewish people has not whether we are talking Antiochus Epiphanes, Hitler, King John of Castile, the expulsion from Spain, and so on. Read A History of the Jewish People edited by H. H. Ben-Sasson if you want a better grasp of what is historical.

Why does the media keep going to the losers for advice. The failed MSM only trusts failed leaders. They are zombies trying to find a meal.

We don’t need Ann Coulter running around Israel trying to convert Jews. Try again.

Jim Baker is a major, bigtime Jew-Hater from way back.

From the way he worked non stop to wipe out Israel, it’s obvious to me he was on the take from the muslims.

He was the one who said, “F*** the Jews,” during a White House meeting.

If James Baker knows so much, how come he didn’t fix it? The so called “peace process” is a pathetic joke.

Say what you will about Baker, but the fact that he’s on the opposite side of this issue from notorious RINO jerks like Lindsey Graham and John McCain is a huge point in his favor.
