to actually do the work, he would need the Arabs as well as Israel. However, I agree with you that neither he or anyone he has picked on this has anywhere near the skills needed - even if they were not starting to Netanyahu's right. I liked Tom Friedman (in Davos with Kerry) saying that Kushner's crediential was once having attended Jewish summer camp. This was in a comment where he was telling Kerry that Netanyahu was going to miss him for just that reason.

I agree with you that will put Netanyahu in an uncomfortable position. Not to mention, what is clear is that the rest of the world does not agree with Netanyahu or Trump.
