It's just a giant insoluble nightmare and we're all along for the ride

Doom and gloom is unhelpful. Israel has managed to forge functional relationships with Arab and Islamic countries in the past. Countries like America and Japan are now close allies. Israel is a close ally of Germany despite the horrific history. Things can and will change.
Yeah, just look at the glorious outbreak of "Peace in the Middle East" that was forged by the "Abraham Accords" framework masterminded by Jared Kushner and expanded by Biden. Turns out buying off wealthy Gulf potentates doesn't actually solve the Israel-Palestine conflict

Pure cynicism. Israel has a functional relationship with Jordan, Azerbaijan and Egypt for decades. Saudi normalization was imminent before October 7. Far more bitter conflicts in history have been solved
Does the "functional relationship" with, for example, Egypt have anything to do with the US subsidizing democratically unaccountable Israel-tolerant Egyptian rulers (and overthrowing/imprisoning potentially nettlesome ones like Morsi in 2013)
@FondCrowRepublican3wks3W
You really believe the US can manipulate Egyptian politics to the degree you describe? Begin and Sadat accomplished nothing at Camp David? It’s all just American orchestrated, artificial diplomacy?
