Let's Solve the Middle East problem Here
There's no shortage of brain power, so how do we fix this? Nuking them out of existence won't sell, gang, so let's see some real solutions.
With or without the west's involvement, these people have been killing each other for millenia. Left to their own devices they would continue. But starting with the Crusades, the west has been a thorn in the side of Islam. It's about the only thing that unites them in this unholy jihad.
Just our little 'experiment' with creating a Jewish state in Israel. That country, with no real natural resources, has the highest per capita GDP in the middle east, easily ahead of the oil rich countries.
Per Cap GDP 2004 $$
20,800 Israel
4,500 Lebanon
7,700 Iran
2,100 Iraq
4,200 Egypt
US and Northern Europe about $40k for comparison. And we do this as 'infidels' who drink and and look at nude women. Surely this can't be. I think that's what really pisses them off.
How about this? Israel's GDP is about $129B. If it were a business it would be worth about 3 times that, so let's say $500B. Let's just buy it, build a wall around it, and give it back to the... oh schit, who really owned it first?
