My comments : Donald Trump wants to put an end to the Palestinian - Israeli conflict. He calls it the "Deal of the Century".
- 'Greater Sinai deal' would transfer 720 sq. km. of Sinai Desert from Egypt to a new Palestinian state
- Egyptian newspaper Al-Masry Al-Youm reported
- Egypt gives up 720 sq km in area of Rafah, El Arish
- it links to Gaza Strip along Mediterranean
- thereby tripling Gaza territory
- Israel, in turn, would give Egypt land in Negev Desert, in Nahal Paran
- Egypt allowed to dig tunnel linking its territory to Jordan
- idea of using parts of Sinai Desert for Palestinian state
This will certainly be resisted by the Palestinians. As part of the deal, the Egyptians will likely have to maintain military and police control over Gaza and this new area.
The Saudis are pushing for this Sinai solution as well. I believe they are doing so at the behest of the US. Trump is visiting Cairo in May.
Trump has really put a gun to the Saudi's head. The US is threatening to end their military support to the Saudis in Yemen.
The Saudis have little choice but to play ball. The Palestinians will not like this at all.
The Israelis are actually passing the Palestine problem, at least in the Gaza, to the Egyptians.
What do I think? I think children must go to school. There must be good schools staffed with teachers and books. Children should be able to go to school and return home safely from school. There must be good roads, buses, trams, trains to ferry them to and from school.
They must return to nice and clean homes where fathers and mothers prepare food, ready clothes for them and have a safe and clean place for them to sleep at night and to keep them warm in winter and cool in summer. They should be able to watch TV, go to the movies and play all the games that children like to play. There must be shops and supermarkets well stocked with goods necessary for a family's needs.
Their parents must have jobs and other economic opportunities where they can make a good living. Their parents and other adults should have economic opportunities to realise their maximum potential.
Children who grow older must have opportunities to find jobs, go to good universities and get married and start their own families. If someone can provide all this then I think it is a job well done.
Err . . one final point - to do all this and achieve all this, the children and their parents and families must remain alive, healthy, unmolested and unthreatened throughout their lives as well.
This is what I think. What do you think folks?
