Lex Fridman has shown once again his uncanny ability to bring out the best in his guests, and Jared Kushner delivers some very strong arguments about how to achieve peace in the middle east. I do not have any geopolitical credentials; in fact, I do not even have a background in international affairs---I am an artist---so please bear with me in what I am about to say. What I believe is that I have a workable, long-term resolution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict that will benefit Israelis, Palestinians and the world writ large. Jared has said that he believes it is possible to have peace by various means, but he does not see the need for Gaza to be evacuated; I do. Today, war between Israel and Hamas will possibly be unleashed like never seen before and suffering and death and increased hatred between two great nations that we all know will only grow. In short; we know how this movie begins but we can only guess how it ends. But I have a peace plan. It is not going to please everyone. Here goes: Gaza must be evacuated and Palestinians relocated. Every building, structure, road and infrastructure should be bulldozed into the ground and the 145 square kilometer land area that Gaza has been should be made into a sort of Galapagos of the middle east and serve as a nature reserve for endangered species of animal, fish, plant, bird etc., on the planet. This area which is about the size of the Isle of Wight could be transformed into a nature reserve where Palestinians and Israelis could eventually work side by side in saving species from extinction and be a gift to our childrens' children as how we resolved this terrible conflict. Just let this roll around in your mind and what you will find coming into your thoughts are pleasant images instead of tragic ones. Lex, Jared in all due respect, I know this peace plan means for us to be cruel to be kind, but the Gaza strip is turning Palestinians into eternal prisoners of the human community because of the inhumane open sewer of living conditions it offers. Palestinian children are being psychologically damaged, the great Palestinian people need one patch of land to live on, and there are countries around the world who have a need for workers. China has whole cities with apartment buildings of millions of apartments empty, for example. We could at least ask them to help out in taking Palestinians leaving Gaza, same for asking Jordan for more land for the Palestinians. It may be a little early to be offering a peace plan, but what I am offering is something good to replace something very bad and it is doable. This is a holy site and what could be more appropriate for the peace plan than to make Gaza a sanctuary for every species on earth bordering on extinction? It is doable.
