my point is that the real reason, way deep down, that we care about israel and the rest of the Middle East is oil - that is why the region is important. take oil out of the equation and, right or wrong, the Middle East, like Africa, ceases to be of geoplotical importance to the US. since we cannot solve thier problems, and they are not willing to make the concessions necessary to solve thier problems, let's figure out a way to not need the Middle East.
