i have long railed agianst Israel's shitty attitude towards resident Palestinians.

Palestinains deserve their own nation, if for no other reason than to stop the senseless fighting. To this end Israel ought to give them the Negev. When i say "give" i mean relinquish control to the Palestinian Authority Delcaring it the Territory of the new Palestinian State and Israel as the first recognizer of such. But....But under one restriction. With the advent of a national homeland the Palestinians have no need to engage in homocide bombings or promote terrorist/nationalist rhetoric. If the Palestinians refuse to Act as a civilized Nation-state Then Israel has the total right to kill/kick out any Palestinians in Israeli occupied lands...its an act of war at that point.

How to get the ME nations on the side of the US.
Just promise them pieces of the Iraqi nation. They can divide it up as they see fit under UN rules for territories and colonies. Not a damn one of them would complain...not to mention it looks like a war for Islamic unification, not against

It's very hard to prevent every single individual Palestinian from blowing him/herself up. Much harder than it is to tell an organised army to retreat.

As for dividing up Iraq...uh, no. I can see about a half-dozen huge problems with that right now, and my knowledge of foreign policy is basic at best.

I must be stoned. That's a good idea. The land the Palestinans get has to be decent though. Not some half assed system of reservations. Access to resources and seafront and unbroken territory.
