The decision to establish the State of Israel in the midst of the Islamic world and  taking lands from neighboring nations to do so, guaranteed intense conflict....that guarantee has been honored for nearly seventy years.  It seems, at least to me, that the "two-state" solution is the only hope for real movement toward peace.  I see the Obama administration's abstention as a possible step in that direction.  However, given all his comments, tweets, etc, it's likely Trump will quickly change that course.  

It's tough enough when two "neighbors" don't particularly like each other.......when they have a long-standing mutual hatred, it's beyond tough......It seems that any moves toward reconciliation made by "moderates" are quickly destroyed by extremists on both sides.....
