Which is still holding to this day!


But the idiot Trump, no way, no day!
I guess you forgot that the US had to pay off both of them in order to do so. Never mind that Egypt got the Sinai back and Israel got to keep the Gaza Strip from the deal.

It would be messing up if he did, as neither side eats ham (pork products).

The Palestinian Authority has a budget, of which only 1% of it actually goes into it's economy. The other 99% goes to, among other things, giving 10% of the Budget to pay to Families of Jailed and ‘Martyred’ Terrorists.

When would Donald Trump have time to be the broker of peace in the Middle East with all the other wonderful things he is going to do? Wouldn't he have to rest on the Seventh Day?

The 7th Day rest day law was changed in the early 2000's in the US, so now he may have to wait 12 days in order to do so. It used to be work 6 ,get 1. It got changed to be dealt with weekly. So now in week 1 it's get 1 off work 6 days and then in the following week it's work 6 and then get the 1. Thus making it 12 straight days working.

Oh, I don't care what they label me, learned to consider the source a long time ago. They are going to find out that a lot of People like me exist, and many are in Congress, and they are not happy with the amateur hour act being performed from the Whitehouse. We shall see where it al leads but it sure isn't looking good.

I agree. No innocent lives should be taken for any reason.

The peace between the two nations is imperative, and we should all work in our own capacity to get there.

Not sure leaving the Palestinians out of the talks is the way to accomplish Peace there. Besides they have a Big Wall, so there is nothing to fear.
