    US to roll out economic part of Mideast peace plan

    US to roll out economic part of Mideast peace plan

    The administration has been working on a peace plan for two years. Not much is public yet, and now we know economic incentives will be part of the plan.

    The Trump administration will unveil the first phase of its long-awaited blueprint for Mideast peace next month at a conference in the region designed to highlight economic benefits that could be reaped if the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is resolved, the White House said Sunday.

    The plan, which has been two years in the making, envisions large-scale investment and infrastructure work in the Palestinian territories. But the central political elements remain mostly unknown. And the economic workshop, June 25-26 in Bahrain, will not address the most contentious parts of the conflict: borders, the status of Jerusalem, Palestinian refugees and Israel’s security.


    In a joint statement with Bahrain, the White House said the workshop will give government, civil and business leaders a chance to gather support for economic initiatives that could be possible with a peace agreement.


    The U.S. wants to ensure security for Israel and economic opportunity to improve the lives of Palestinians. The administration hopes that Arab countries will help bankroll economic incentives, such as infrastructure and industrial projects, to get Palestinians to buy into the plan. But with details of the political aspects of the plan still under wraps, any commitments for economic development won’t be easily attained.


    “The Palestinian people, along with all people in the Middle East, deserve a future with dignity and the opportunity to better their lives,” President Donald Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, said in a statement Sunday. “Economic progress can only be achieved with a solid economic vision and if the core political issues are resolved.”

    Waste of time and effort. The Palestinians will not accept living in Peace with Israel.


    Media Revealed Details On Alleged "Deal Of The Century ...

    https://southfront.org/media-revealed-details-on-alleged-deal-of-the-century-agreement...
    Former Israeli Ambassador to the US Michael Oren, on Twitter, claimed that “Hamas must go.” But any actions by Israel, which is ready to act, with the blessing and support of the US and other Arab Gulf States should happen only after the Israeli holidays and Eurovision end. Hamas must go.

    If the Arab nations agree with the plan they might not have much choice.

    When has the Arab countries agreed to invest in the Palestinians? They know the Palestinians will just use the money to go after Israel. Then there is that Iranian influence.

    I think the only solution is "the two state solution". It won't be solved on economics alone.

    I suppose that is why the economic aspect is only one part of the plan. It can't work if there is not a political solution first.

    Iran is taking over as the biggest influence through expanding the use of their growing list of proxies.

    And that can only happen with a two state solution all sides can agree to.
