What about the Middle East?

Trump is cozy with Saudi Arabia. It and the UAE, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq should all be brought to the conference table. Then invite Israel, Iran, Yemen, the Palestinians, and all the countries of the Shia Crescent for a real peace Summit. 

Iraq is at peace with Israel. It is also a Shi’ite homeland. If there was sincere interest in peace in the Middle East, it could happen.

That would be something to admire. Peace talks leading to peace treaties are supposed to make the world a safer place, not a world resolved to oppression.
