The Middle East: A 4-Step Peace Plan

Meaningful Life Skills with Rabbi Simon Jacobson

With war continuing to rage across the Middle East—north and south of Israel, fueled by Iran and its proxies—one question echoes in every heart: What is the endgame? Is peace even possible? Especially when this conflict has persisted not just for decades, but for centuries, even millennia. And in the past century, the flames have only grown fiercer.
Is there hope? Countless peace proposals have been presented over the years, yet none ever hold. Many have given up, resigned to a cycle of temporary fixes, firefighting, and fragile ceasefires—only to watch the tensions erupt again and again.
I propose we take a bold new approach. A peace plan that addresses not only the symptoms but the very roots of the conflict. A plan that balances immediate needs with long-term vision, because nothing less will break this relentless cycle.
This demands open eyes, honesty, and courage. We cannot hide behind illusions or smokescreens. True peace requires confronting the core issues head-on, with integrity and fairness.
And when I speak of peace, I mean peace for everyone—a solution where all sides win, where no one is left defeated or humiliated. It must be a lasting peace, a permanent resolution that benefits all people.
Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson in this urgent and vital conversation as he presents a groundbreaking 4-step plan for true and enduring peace in the Middle East. We will tackle one of the most pressing and timeless issues that has haunted humanity since the dawn of history, charting a path toward hope, healing, and lasting harmony.
