What road to peace? Legolas Send a noteboard - 08/11/2020 05:41:13 PM

View original postTrump was openly pro Israel and not just in words but also in deeds. The Democrats are not pro Israel and some factions are very much anti Israel. What incentive do the Arabs have to continue down the road to peace started in the last 6 months, now that they will have a more sympathetic ear in the White House?

I haven't seen any progress on the road to peace. If you're referring to the normalization of relations with the Gulf States, how does that contribute in any way to actually resolving the issue between Israel and Palestine? It neither improved the Palestinians' position, nor increased Israel's security.

Still, Netanyahu probably will indeed regret having behaved so sycophantically towards Trump and having unnecessarily antagonized the Democrats - I'm inclined to say there was a time when he would've known better, but lately it seems his arrogance clouds his better judgement, on that and on many other issues.

Okay. For what it's worth, there was a lot in your original reply that I more or less agree with. *NM* - 09/11/2020 05:11:13 PM 210 Views
