In the new book written by Micheal Wolf, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, there are several different areas that have come under scrutiny since the release of this controversial book. From what the news article says as well as what the book is quoted as saying, it was Steve Bannon’s idea to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, It was not however, Bannon’s plan to appoint Jared Kushner as the the “czar” of the middle east peace process. This later created much speculated conflict between the two senior advisers to the president. Apparently, Bannon wanted to move the American embassy to Jerusalem on the first day that president Trump came into office. The embassy move has been announced and a visit by vice-president Micheal Pence has verbally sealed the deal. the second event that is discussed in Micheal Wolf’s book is the transfer of land from Palestinian control to Egyptian and Jordanian control. Bannon is written as saying that Egypt would take control of the Gaza Strip and Jordan would take the West Bank. One of these events have already occurred. Will president Trump announce “The Bannon Plan” or will he not take any further action in the Middle East? One thing is for certain, any idea of Trump’s ideas for Middle East Peace are either not written about or are undersigned. Perhaps Trump has no clear opinion on matters pertaining to the Middle east.
