There will be no peace in the Middle East under Trump, either
The false notion that Trump oversaw a bloodless era of peace in the Middle East reveals a disturbing collective amnesia.
You're viewing a single thread.
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.
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.
Heck, there hasn't been peace in the Middle East since the Bronze Age Collapse.
Just wanna point out that this is racist (????) propaganda meant to give the impression that the current state of the Middle East is anything but directly caused by Western interference. The Middle East was stable under Ottoman rule and Arab (gross oversimplification) rule before it.
Yeah, this whole "that place hasn't had peace for thousands of years" is a Western talking point made to justify our occupation there.
The Ottoman and Arab empire (which we LOVE to pretend never existed) not only brought a lot of the innovations in science and technology that we still use to this day, but they also had a lot of social advancements that predated Western culture.
