Solving the Mideast Problem

December 6, 2017

The Teflon Don is making Jerusalem an issue just in time to pander to the Evangelical Christians in Alabama, who may be waffling about supporting a pedophile. It is a dangerous and potentially lethal game to play. Whatever happened to Jared’s peace process?

If I were going to be snarky, I would say that the answer to peace in the region would be to build a big, beautiful wall between East and West Jerusalem. However, I am not going to say that. Here is my solution, however.

Where is the happiest place in the world? It is Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL. One of Disney’s most popular and enduring theme parks is Epcot. Epcot is an international theme park that highlights cultures from all over the world. Park goers can go from Europe to South America and then to Asia. You can partake of cuisines from dozens of countries. Let’s turn over Jerusalem to Disney.

Disney could create an independent, Vatican-like “country” that would include a Christian World, a Muslim World, and a Jewish World. Pilgrims would be able to travel freely between the different worlds with a Speed Pass, and be exposed to the unique cultures, languages, foods, and religious rites. Students from all over the world could come and study at Disney University. A monorail would tie everything together. Each World would have its own rides and attractions. Security could be provided by the United Nations.

Obviously, I am being facetious, but I think my plan has about as much of a chance of becoming reality as anything the Teflon Don might put forward.
