No kidding. So perhaps soon Gaza and the West Bank will be surrounded by states who are tired of their crap and just want to be peaceful and prosperous. That could be a game changer. I wonder if the Saudis will sign on. That would stick in the Iranian clerics' craw.

Funny things happen when you short the Palestinians 3/4 billion bucks...

We shouldn't be giving them a plugged nickel. They just spend it on rockets.

Imagine that....
Trump achieves peace in the middle East, and the democrats get mad about it.
I haven't seen the democrats this angry since Lincoln freed their slaves...

I'd say he deserves it just as much as Obama, that is, not at all.

I dunno.
Seems like he's had a pretty good run in the ME.

The Australian guy was suggesting him for the Trump Doctrine - i.e. stopping the habitual bombing the shit out of people which the US has engaged in since the end of WW2. Previously, anybody who suggested this was a bad idea was shunned by those on the right as being some kind of hippy. Nice to see you chaps finally catch up.

Hey, if the US can stop bombing the shit out of places, give him a Nobel. Let's face it, he could probably do with the cash.

Well, we knew the Aussies were nuts, but now we can confirm the same about the Brits:
A member of the British Parliament on Tuesday announced he has nominated Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for the Nobel Peace Prize.
“When others have resorted to violent solutions, [Biden] has argued that the best force is the force of argument,” Chris Bryant, a member of the Labour Party, told the Standard. “Because guns can stop a heart but well-placed words can change many hearts, and many hearts can change a world.”
Any head of state or national politician can nominate someone for the prize. A far-right member of the Norwegian Parliament, Christian Tybring-Gjedde, has nominated President Trump for the honor in both 2018 and 2020.
“For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other peace prize nominees,” Tybring-Gjedde said in 2020, citing the U.S.-brokered deal normalizing relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates.
