#1 Interesting, but I don't see ISRAEL accepting this schema unless EGYPT agrees to share and give up at least 1/2 of the Sinai desert with Israel.

#4 His plan is horrible .... until it is compared with all the other plans.

#5 I say we give Lander County, Nevada to them. Just move them all to Lander County, we can call it Palestine, they can have a country bigger than their current country and everyone can be happy.

Or maybe the Israelis would take Lander County. God, I wish someone would.

#6 This could only work if the Jordanian and Egyptian governments guarantee they will enforce peaceful behaviour on their respective Palestinians. Which I am quite certain the governments won't want to do in the face of popular rebellion against the very idea of reigning in the Palestinians, whom they've been taught for generations are the front line and key issue against that horrid Zionist entity. Israel has tried this before, I believe, with no interest from the governments in question.

#7 I like John Bolton. He is brilliant and courageous but I think his plan is pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking.

King Abdullah, though married to a Paleo beauty, would probably decline the "honor" of making west bank Paleos his subjects. Also, Mubarak would have to be crazy to want to incorporate the Gazan cesspool into Egybt. Gaza makes the qatb oriented moslem brotherhood look moderate by comparison.

No, I don't think either state would want to injest that noxious poison....now the good King may want a piece of Jerusalem, but the rest of the west bank......thanks, but no thanks.

#8 There is a reason both countries passed up the opportunity to absorb the Paleos into their countries in the 50s. They know the Paleos are just fucking nuts.

#9 take Lander County

Or maybe Clark County. (About the only thing I find of use in Las Vegas is the airport.)

#10 What's Bolton got against Egypt and Jordan?

I still think the best bet is to acquire Baja California from Mexico and give it to Israel.

#11 Look at a map. The place to put the Paleos is self evident. After all you want them far away from where they are now in a similar environment.

Cut out a little piece of desert on the Algeria, Mali border and set them up there. You could give them a piece the size of Jordan all to themselves.

#14 Correction, they should take Palestinians

#15 They would take the land but not the Palestinians.
What about the Saudi Empty Corner?

It's empty
