It's one of those, had Obama come up with an identical plan and the Guardian would be lauding it instead.


None of Kerry's failed peacemaking efforts under Obama were particularly lauded.

Also, if Obama had commissioned Rory Farquharson* to come up with an Israel-Palestine peace plan, he'd have been mercilessly mocked and ridiculed at best, and accused of severe nepotism and corruption at worst. Yet that's exactly what Trump is doing with Kushner.

* His daughter's boyfriend. Never heard of him? Exactly the point.
Whenever I've seen Kusnher interviewed, he comes across as the slow-witted kid who sits in the corner of the class. So I'm not quite sure how this trust fund child became such a wealthy self-made man.

And while I wouldn't normally question Trump's excellent eye for talent, I'm not sure nepotism is the best approach to appointing your advisors.
Meh, just let the Middle East get on with it. Or failing that have the British back in charge.
