A century ago statesmen of England and France organized borders in a vast area they did not know well. Like in old times there was then still much land of none interest, dry and uninhabited except by wandering nomads. Because those Europeans primarily focussed on own gains there is no valid reason for the International Court of Justice to stick to their architecture. Present local powers have own priorities and cannot be expected to develop a map with equal distributions. So to that purpose from outside suggestions may be welcome to enhance peaceful existence. Consider the following remarks and eventually contribute.
Number one problem to be solved is that after the First World War with end of the Turkish empire the Kurds did not get their own state. This has to be corrected according the principles of the UNO. Most likely it will involve migrations as in some regions Kurds and Turks are mixed and there cannot be a third state for them. Migration, p.e. to Saoudi-Arabia, should also be an option for moslim Arabs on the Westbank. A king Mohammed there on the old land of David and the Jews is crazy. At best autonomous territory within the state of Israël and a maximum of one third Jews seems possible, while in the rest of the country one third Arabs at most. But the farmers with their olive trees anyway have to be resettled on irrigated desertland as such allows reforestation where rain falls for a thirty meters high cool cover. If Hamas continues its terror Gaza can be made devoid of the Hamas supporting Palestinians, rendering it to lush green with wild animals.
A third item needing attention is distribution of the oil revenues. This will be facilitated by adjusting state borders. One may start by cutting deserts loose from states (also in the big Sahara and equally the Amazone forest). The SinaÏ always was of minor interest except to herding nomads and not an eternal borderline existed between Israel and Egypt. The Bedouins in Israel need more space and therefore the border can be shifted southwards direction St Catharine, while the Egyptians like all mankind impose sanctions against surpopulation. Their country had ten million people around 1900 and today more than hundred million. Of whom many will starve during big international conflicts that block food transport. Shift of the border between Jordan and a smaller Saoudi-Arabia is likely to provide more equal development possibilities.
All this can be smeared with money. In Europe the Primitives want bigger armies to oppose 1 dangerous Russian. They need help to spend their money in a better way. P.e. via tax raising to deposit in old age funds of countries exploited by too low wages. Can an Arab Monetary Fund be charged to make plans for better sharing wealth? This leads automatically to better education. Today autocratic leaders seem happy with insufficient schooling of the mass in order to stay in power and avoid democracy. Which allows free choice of religion. Or none. Note that the Koran tells already in chapter 2 that good christians and jews will enter Paradise while bad moslims go into the Fire. This Koran should be sent to Teheran.
In the Middle East political situation there are four main and distinct nations of Kurds, Turks, Arabs and Jews. What map to draw to get lasting balance without necessity of armament?
