Trump Peace Proposal for the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict
President Trump is trying to end the long-standing Palestinian-Israeli conflict and is looking to succeed where seven other American presidents have failed by making peace in the Middle East. He hopes the changing regional dynamics and the sheer strength of his personality will allow him to make the ultimate deal that no one else can make. What does the Trump plan involve? What are the chances President Trump can deliver on this promise and make peace in the Holy Land?
