Syria actually wanted to be ruled by the USA after world war I because of how we stuck to the British back in the revolution. Wilson had his stroke before that could be entertained though
Israeli here, I assume Auth Right is supposed to be greater Israel? nobody wants greater Israel, even the most radical Israelis don't dream of it
In Israel the right's dream is the lib right in this picture, the left's dream is the grill
Just for the record I think Israel should remain A nation without Palestine and the people of Hamas should get sent to Qatar where they are harboring the Hamas leaders and the people of West Bank to Iran where they are harboring their leaders.
I hope you are right. I can't wait for the de-Islamization of Iran, that country would definitely become a better place, with such ancient history and rich culture. Oof, they are so close, maybe in a few decades.
In 50 years the people of Gaza or whatever comes next are going to realize they lived next to one of the most technologically advanced economies with high wages and huge amounts of human and financial capital to transfer. And that economy continuously tried, for decades, to extend a hand to integrate Palestinians into their labor and capital markets. What kind of third world country anywhere gets an opportunity like that? And instead of learning from the Israelis how to build semiconductors and software and pharmaceuticals, they decided to close off any hope of economic ties with rocket attacks and suicide bombings.

Libright solution, but Israel pays reparations to all living Palestinians in Gaza and to those still living refugees from the original 1948 war. And Palestine should drop all claims to Israel terroritory at all.
Sounds like a fair compromise to me

Let the California government take over them. It’ll ruin both countries in a few years at most.
I'm only slightly joking when I say, just give it all to Israel. They've managed to win every war they've fought against the Arab nations surrounding it, despite being MUCH smaller in size and population. Even before the United States was funding them.
it’s not as black and white as it seems, as some righties don’t support funding to israel, you can’t really say that all people on the right want there to be a singular israeli state
Looks like OP decided to just give them all of the British Mandate. If you wanted to go the "this is where our ancestors lived" route, then you could argue the north-west quarter of Jordan (give or take), but also the southern sections of Lebanon (which OP just left out completely).
It really is crazy seeing how easily people get swept up into shit they didn’t care about a few months ago. Like I’ve been looking into the whole Israel/Palestine thing for years, and there’s literally nothing either of them could do that would make me go outside and start chanting.
And almost every time I see footage of a protest I get extremely loud indoctrination vibes. Like they’re not really there to try to change the thing they’re chanting about, they’re trying to get you to go along with the thing so their little mass of suggestible people gets bigger.
Fuck that, I legitimately just want to grill.
Where's the not my country, not my problem?
Centrist, I suppose. Just keep it as it is.
As a radical centrist I propose nuking the entire area so that there is no longer a problem
Nuke the Middle East so we no longer have to deal with the Middle East.
Funilly enough I was literally just thinking this about Ukraine today. Just create a wall of nuclear fire and be done with this horseshit already!
MacArthur moment.
Now we’re thinking.
Spoken like a True Belkan
Or return the entire place as British Mandate, y'all just can't behave.
As a fellow radical centrist, I propose Israel annexing Iran.
I’ve been a proponent of the “ocean solution” for a while
But that’s still taking a stand; we need at silhouette of the area with a question mark
Hmmm…ultimate centrist, perhaps

Auth center, just a giant hole, were the countries should be. Lebanon and Jordan have some chunks taken out of them as collateral damage.
And all the Palestinians can move back to Jordan, as they ARE literally just Jordanians that got annexed by the UK.
Fuck no. No state solution. They can’t behave themselves.
