The problem is the Pali's know all they have to do is lay low for a few years until a more compliant administration comes to power here and then it's back on the gravy train for them.

Trump's gotta get something solid going with the time he's given. I believe he will...

Nope. If Trump has accomplished nothing else in the Middle East he has at least made it impossible for any future administration to come across as a neutral broker. Trump signed off on the unification of Jerusalem under Israeli control; no future U.S. president could say the future of Jerusalem is an issue to be negotiated. Trump's play gives Israeli permission to annex whole sections of the West Bank; no future U.S. president can say that the ownership of those areas needs to be decided upon. No future administration can be more compliant because Trump's removed anything to be negotiated over. The U.S. is officially out of the Middle East peace business.

No chance. There aren't two sides to negotiate with. Only one side who won and one side who lost.
