There has not been peace in the Middle East since the Ottoman Empire and there probably never will be peace in the Middle East for at least several decades more.
There won’t be peace in the middle east until we’ve moved beyond petroleum.
When there’s no need for oil the global superpowers won’t need to play the regional powers against each other to take advantage of the chaos for profit anymore.Israel vs Arab states conflict won’t stop post oil economy.
No, but we’ll stop propping up both sides and it will be able to reach some sort of natural conclusion.
We’re not going to stop propping up Israel. It’s religious for American Christians, not economic.
This. There is a whole lot of dumb wrapped up in American policy related to Israel, and much of it is due to gomers that actually believe in their sick fantasies from their little book club.
I think this has always been a facile theory not backed up by any actual polling data.
Theory? Many of them will tell you their thoughts on why Israel has to be occupied by Jews. White evangelicals are all in for donvict like almost no other demo. A great deal of evangelicals believe that the character of Yeshua from their book club is going to come back in their lifetime.
While the zionists are there, there will be no peace.
People have been saying “As long as no [disliked social group] exists in the Middle East, there will be no peace” for the entirety of history.
Interesting theory. Tell us more about your obviously clear understanding of the 800 years of the jews living peacefully in that region during the ottoman empire.
Do you really think that if Israel did not exist that there’d be peace there?
Do you really think that if Israel did not exist that there’d be peace there?
I am 1000% confident that there would not be gencoide there if not for zionists. And theres plenty of proof of peace there in the past.
ask the Armenians about that.
There isn’t going to be peace in my region until any of the regional powers once again has hegemony. Right now this region is a shatter belt, that is a region where regional and global powers treat as a battleground. That’s why a revolution against Syria’s government devolved into American, Russian, Turkish, Kurdish, Iranian, Israeli, Iraqi and Lebanese aircraft militias and armies directly involved, with even more indirectly involved.
Sadly the next few decades portend a collapse of the current authoritarian stability and even more Syria-like disasters.
Peace is bad for business
“You could have had the friendly genocide, but noooo”
I think some non-voters knew that he would burn our system to the ground, and thats what they voted for.
I feel like the middle east is sort of just like, haunted, doomed to eternal conflict by malevolent specters.
(Yes, I know those specters are the military industrial complex, colonialism, ancient civilizations, authoritarian rule, oil and natural gas, sectarian divisions, Israel, religious extremeists oh god maybe it is haunted)

No way :O
There will soon be no Palestine either.
This must be where the “Genocide Joe!” tankies are having some pikachu face.
Why? Don’t think people who’d be considered tankies and recognized Biden as being being genocidal generally thought trump was better. I mean some Americans probably because Americans are politically illiterate and trump sometimes says he’ll do peace so doubtlessly some believed him. But I don’t think people saying genocide joe are surprised
There hasn’t been peace in the middle east in what 1-2 thousand years? I highly doubt a president was ever changing that unless they nuke the whole thing.
