Having relatives that survived the holocaust or being an Orthdox Jew does not make you a savvy political powerhouse that can negotiate peace...uh..don’t you think there are plenty of people that fit that category that have already tried?
Kushner is a babe in the woods in this White House.
But....but....it wasn’t but a week ago we had some concern trolls all worried he was going squishy on Israel....
Kick out the Arabs into Egypt - their real home - and annex Gaza to Israel.
The southern border will be the Sinai, and the western border the Med. Perfectly secure.
It inoculates you from being called naive re the threats to Israel and what are the consequences of a bad deal. Bibi has known him from childhood. Having these personal connections are useful.
Having a new perspective is not bad. Trump got elected to office promising change. He had never run for elective office in his life yet he was able to overcome far more experienced and "qualified" opponents in the primary and beat Hillary whom Obama called the most qualified candidate in history. I gather you are not a big Trump fan.
Kushner is a babe in the woods in this White House.
He like Trump is an outsider. He is not part of the sclerotic GOPe and the political class. Why not give Kushner and Trump a chance to broker a deal? What do we have to lose? What we do know is that Israel will not negotiate away its very survival.
&^*#@%*&%$# the PLO.
As one that remembers the bloodiness of the ‘vintage 1972 P.L.O.’, they can go suck an egg!
Cut out their bucks.
When did the PLO agree to anything and then keep their commitments?
Maybe they can dig up Arafat to see what he thinks ,. They’ll get just as far.
Jared is a negotiator all his life, in the tough New York market.
Hillary, Kerry, Powell, Ms. C Rice, Albright, none of them really where negotiators, most political hacks.
I agree I don’t think the PLO wants peace unless their money is cut off so they can’t enhance their Swiss Bank Accounts. Peace means they have to rule a people who are lazy and only know violence.
Trump’s statement that he is open to ideas other than the “2 state solution” is a very big shift in American policy. The media has barely covered this issue as they are still stuck on the days old Flynn story and otherwise crying about what they think is unfair treatment during press conferences. This alone proves Trump’s point. They are ignoring big stories because they want to continue their anti-Trump crusade.
