Dystopia in today's Middle East

What cannot be argued is how the Middle East has entered into a dystopian realm. To those on the Israeli right who believe the solution involves transferring the Palestinians to Jordan need to re-examine that position. The idea Israel will add more to it's lifespan by transferring the hostile natives across the Jordan River to where there can be no illusion what will transpire - as you look at the forces at play with ISIS expanding, Syria turned to rubble, Iraq in a endless death spiral, Yemen's civil war, Egypt's war with the Brotherhood, ISIS in Libya and in Northern Africa expanding. Let us not forget the 100 year conflict with the Palestinians. The region has been smoldering into oblivion for decades. It  has been unfolding for decades. There is a force that is more powerful than Israel, hard to believe, but history takes a back seat to no one. To move the Palestinians to Jordan will only create ISIS next door to Israel. Therefore, Israel needs to decide? An inept Hamas next door or what appears to be any army conquering lands all across the Middle East, ISIS? Israeli's are safe now because ISIS has yet to target Israel. Once Israel transfers by force 6 million Muslims across the river, not sure how that move adds to Israel's security. Israeli's could wake up one day to find all of the Arab world is controlled by ISIS. That is highly likely since ALL Arab regimes lack legitimacy and as corrupt as the infinite universe. I didn't get to Iran's nuclear prowess and possible threat to Israel.

Removing Assad of Syria

I don't understand how people think removing Assad will solve anything. Did removing Saddam solve anything? Did removing Gaddafi solve anything? Removing Assad will only insure an ISIS takeover of all of Syria. So what is the solution to Syria? It was a fragile state to begin with just like Iraq when we invaded it. Now that it's broken in so many pieces there is noway it can be put back together. The Alawites are undoubtedly threatened by a genocidal ISIS. The Assad regime and it's supporters will have no choice but to fight to the bitter end. ISIS has already slaughtered or ethnically cleansed all those who are not Sunni Muslims. Syria in the best case scenario will be carved up with an Alawite enclave, Kurdish enclave, Druze and of course ISIS, Al Qaeda, and a few other Sunni groups. There is no Syria anymore. The refugee problem will only get worse as ISIS continues to expand - possibly into Lebanon and Jordan. This is Armageddon for all practical purposes. Try telling the Iraqi's or Syrians, or Libyans or Yemeni's or Christian Arabs or Yazidi's otherwise? Will the walls being built by Israel be sufficient defense against this historical tsunami? The walls of Jericho fell, according to the Torah. Kinda ironic to see Israel today as the modern day Jericho all walled up. Let us hope God is not on ISIS side. We all know what can happen to walls if God gets in the act
