1 Does he talks about Peace between Sunni and Shia, or Peace among Sunnis?

2 Given how the Shia hate the Sunnis and everyone hates the Juice, we'll have an Ice Age before we have peace in the ME. I suggest B-HO practice making peace with the Canadians before he tries the hard stuff.

3 Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics,
And the Catholics hate the Protestants,
And the Hindus hate the Muslims,
And everybody hates the Jews.

5 You don't create peace in the ME from a position of weakness.

The soft approach to Libya and Egypt, the use of drones instead of force of arms, and the nonsense about Israel do not breed an environment conducive to negotiations.

You have to stick a knife in the table and slap them around if you want the Moslems to agree to anything.

I'd start with carpet bombing Wardak and the Tribal Territories.
