Dear Next President:

The situation in Israel and Palestine is a big problem. There have been multiple violent outbreaks and things are very unstable.

The Israeli people are struggling just to keep their land and practice their religion freely. The Palestinians have been very violent in their efforts to take over Israeli territory. Their government is run by the Hamas, a terrorist organization. We should protect the Israelis from these Palestinian attacks.

If we could solve this problem, the Israelis and Palestinians could live in peace. The Israelis wouldn’t have to live in fear of losing their homes or being hurt. Jerusalem needs to be accessible to everyone who wants to visit there.

To solve this problem, we need to support Israel. We should protect the only safehaven in the Middle East. If we are going to win the war against terrorism, we are going to need all the help we can get. We need to stop Palestine from attacking and encourage the war to come to an end. We should make Jerusalem accessible to all religions, no matter what country controls it.

This will stop the war, create more stability in the Middle East and bring us one step closer to destroying ISIS. This will protect the safehaven that was created after World War II for the specific reason of religious freedom.

The first step towards the solution is to meet with Israeli leaders and make it clear that the United States stands with Israel. We may need to station troops there for a little while and help the Israelis defend their home. This will put us on the right track towards overall global stability.

Sincerely, Jacob
