A students understanding of the Middle East

I loudly applaud the solution to the Middle East situation as offered by the president of the white sport-coat society as being the most logical and hard-hitting, no punches pulled, no holds barred etc to date. But even so I feel that if one wishes to commit oneself, one should go the 'full hog' as half measures only result in part solutions. Might I then make the suggestion that as surely as Istanbul was once Constantinople—Constantinople was in turn once Byzantium.
