I could not agree with you more. But it is now how the Arabs or the Turks are brought up to think about things.
It is Clan against Clan and sect against sect, with hate as the cement that has dried for centuries.
But yes, I believe the young Saudi Prince wants to make things better. They already tried to kill him, so he must be doing something right.
Lets hope some sanity can be brought to the end of fighting in Syria.
I think Trump is more informed about this than the press will admit. I think he will find a way out of this.
If not, we’ll here we are.
I’m not looking for “world peace”, this is not a beauty contest. In the real world if some of the ME butchery can be stopped, it is a huge improvement.
I hadn’t realised the Prince had been targeted. Not surprising. They are, on average, seventh century barbarians with oil money.
Was the attempt before or after he “detained” his brother royals?
I wouldn’t bet on what President Trump knows. He surprises me constantly with the breadth and depth of his knowledge.
Having his SIL as a special envoy to the ME can only help. I know Arabs look favorably on family members sent to do business with them. Its sort of an Asian “face” thing, it says to them they are important. That is how they do business.
Yeah, Peace On Earth ain’t happening anytime soon.
We are living in interesting and frightening times.
Curious as to what the outcome looks like.
