The Middle east blames America if they get involved...and if it doesn't show much involvement in the matters, again the finger's pointed back to America. Part of it is America's fault too...if it had not tried to be a beacon of democracy worldwide so much, then lot would have been different.
Did you guys listen to Obama's speech on stuff going on in middle east last week? He didn't show "much" involvement and the people in the middle east were disappointed for that. They were expecting more support and involvement.😳 Then, when America gets involved, it's those people only who recite Anti-America slogans and burn the American Flag.😳 I don't think i get all this...or may be I'm still too young to get hold of any of that.
Yaar the middle east issue is too complicated...I'll never fully understand it either...There is the whole Israel lobby in the U.S. also that they have to walk a fine line with even as they try to be objective towards both sides in this conflict...so either ways America ends up being the bad guy...if it tries to be objective about the whole settlements issue and tells Israel to pull out to an extent, their backs go up and they refuse to co-operate...and if they don't say anything, Palestinians and the rest of the Arab world hate them even more and accuse them of siding with the Jews etc. etc...this is like a crazy convoluted hopeless situation IMO...I don't see any solutions happening unless both sides are willing to agree to mature compromise which doesn't seem like it will happen.
