It causes the US to push Israel to restrain itself, which just ends up empowering its enemies. It causes Israel society to resent Western countries that bomb the crap out of Afghanistan for two decades, but ask Israel to exercise restraint the day a war begins. It leaves the US vulnerable to attacks at the hands of those Israel is trying to stop. Why? All to try and gain recognition for solving problems of the Middle East they’ll likely not even coming close to solve.

The likelihood of creating peace in the region is minuscule, and there probably far easier and more likely paths to carve out your legacy as a world leader.
