Alex Gorka — President Trump to Unveil New Middle East Peace Plan


Another map to nowhere if what's being floated in anywhere close to what's planned.

DJT's major flaw in dealmaking at this level is assuming that economic interests are paramount when they are not. He is out of his league here since his understanding of interest is limited at best, and his the advisors he has chosen are incompetent ideologues.
Donald Trump likes to make “deals.” Perhaps he views the Palestinian problem as essentially an economic issue, not a political one. Because of this perspective he has adopted a “you make concessions to get economic benefits in return” approach. The problem is with the PA’s leadership, which is headed by Mahmoud Abbas, its people, and also the Arab leaders who want a real political settlement instead of a trade deal, because they aren’t going anywhere. It’s really hard to imagine the Palestinians taking any offer of “limited sovereignty” seriously.

I have a peace plan for the Middle East.

It starts with turning the State of Israel into a glass-paved parking lot.
