CNS News<\/a> posted an article yesterday about President Trump’s proposal to bring peace to the Middle East. The proposed plan allows Jerusalem to remain the undivided capital of Israel and offers financial incentives to Hamas and Hezbollah to end their reign of terror.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

\u201cPalestinians have been trapped in a cycle of terrorism, poverty, and violence, exploited by those seeking to use them as pawns to advance terrorism and extremism,\u201d Trump said, adding that he returned from his visit \u201cdetermined to find a constructive path, and it\u2019s got to be a very powerful path forward in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTo further this effort, I also met with President Abbas at the White House. Forging peace between Israelis and Palestinians may be the most difficult challenge of all. All prior administrations from President Lyndon Johnson have tried and bitterly failed, but I was not elected to do small things or shy away big problems,\u201d he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The president said he delivered his \u201cvision for peace, prosperity, and a brighter future for Israelis and Palestinians\u201d to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was on hand for the joint White House press conference.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I have seen throughout my long career as a dealmaker, complex problems require nuanced, fact-based remedies. That is why our proposal provides precise, technical solutions to make Israelis, Palestinians, and the region safer and much more prosperous,\u201d he said. \u201cMy vision presents a win-win opportunity for both sides, a realistic two state solution that resolves the risk of Palestinian statehood to Israel’s security.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Netanyahu has agreed to \u201cendorse the vision as the basis for direct negotiations,\u201d Trump said, calling it a \u201cgiant step toward peace.\u201c<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first time Israel has authorized the release of a conceptual map illustrating the territorial compromises it is willing to make for the cause of peace, and they\u2019ve gone a long way,\u201d Trump added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am never optimistic about peace in the Middle East, but this is an interesting proposal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
