Is it possible for us to tell BOTH the Jews and the Muslims in the Middle East to GFY?

I get why we've been over there for decades, but I'm thinking now is the time to peace out on the entire region. I mean, frick 'em. Do we really GAF about these people?
Also, if you have a really strong opinion on the US being involved over there (Jew or Muslim), then your arse should probably move over there and give it a try.

I don't. We shouldn't be getting involved in generational conflicts, like Afghanistan and the Middle East. These situations are virtually unsolvable, especially by outsiders.

I don’t really care. But it’s 7 million Jews surrounded by 200 million Muslims.

Don’t care about Ukraine.
Don’t care about Israel.
Don’t care about Palestine.
Honestly, neither does the U.S. government other than they are excuses to further enrich themselves at our expense.

I think we should let Israel do what they want…just with no help from us. If they want to take Gaza, do it…if they want to fight whoever and take their riches…good luck. You already have what you have…

One group controls a lot of money and media while one has a lot of energy to sell. With both having pockets full of money, it is quite obvious why the Military Industrial Complex loves to keep them at each others throat.
So, in 1948, a lion was tossed into the den of wolves. Our great-grandparents were the first US taxpayers to complain about this scheme.

My god the poli board has become an isolationist circle jerk of uneducated morons. Should I also have to move to South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, or Gitmo or could I just do a time-share and split my time up? Yes we are partly there bc they are our allies (and fricking over your allies is great diplomacy), also they are a industrialized democracy in a area of authoritarian religious nut jobs, but mainly to provide stability to the region. Is the region stable now? A hell of a lot more stable then if we weren’t there.
Why do you think the Muslim countries allow the infidels to have bases there? It’s to keep the Iranians from taking over which the Iranians definitely want to do. Why do we care if the Iranians take over you ask? Because the #2,3,5,6, and 7 countries with the largest proven oil reserves are there. And #1 is the communist count in Venezuela, #4 is the tree-hugging progressive count in Canada, and #8 is Russia. Good luck getting them to ramp up production if there is a shortage.
If Iran took over the Middle East they could stop the world’s economy in its tracks anytime they got pissy. And they get pissy a lot.

Anyone who picks a side in the sand people wars over magic dirt is sped. They all need to go back to sand land.

Israel wants a place for the Jews and are willing to fight for it. They need to start considering innocent lives at a much higher priority than they do. Their Muslim citizens are as equal as anyone else including women. The rest of the Middle East is mostly for male Muslims anyone else "rights" are negligible.
In the Middle East. There is two things that stand out above all. Geography and Geology. Which in turn leads to a lot of reality-important strategic considerations. That affects your daily lives. If ya don't know what I'm talking about ya need to educate yourself. The Middle East is very complicated, with things that are outside of it, but connected.
People are sick of being the "Worlds Police", but with the power vacuum that would ensue after we step down, most would realize what a mistake it would be to let China and a gang of Thug countries rule the open seas.
There seem to be people who are making up the isolationist Utopian society in their collective heads. It's no better than communism.
The world is not so simple.

We don’t benefit at all being involved in that region, we’re only there for the oil….we should’ve taken over Venezuela decades ago and let the Jews/muslims have at it on their own

No. Let some group parachute their way into all of your family's yards and kill, rape them and get back to me.
Israel needs to keep their foot on the pedal. Don't let up
