Trump's new envoy to the Middle East and the challenges he'll face

So, Jason Greenblatt is stepping down as Trump's special peace envoy to the Middle East. Greenblatt is being replaced by a guy named Avi Berkowitz. Berkowitz has served as a an assistant to Jared Kushner. Berkowitz is 30 years old and learned in yeshiva in Kol Torah, before moving on to University, including Harvard Law School, and his career.

Besides for being young, Berkowitz looks extremely young. He must be very talented to achieve so much at such a young age. I hope he is brilliant and truly talented. He will face a lot of challenges - the Palestinians will accept him and anything he offers as little as they accepted anything else from anyone Trump set, adding that to his youth and being another devout Orthodox Jew, even more than the previous envoy, and it seems unlikely the Palestinians will give him the time of day. Everyone else might have a hard time taking him seriously considering his lack of experience and his apparent youth, but that is probably easier to overcome than the Palestinian bias against him as an orthodox Jewish representative of Donald Trump..

Best of luck to Avi Berkowitz, the United States, and to the Middle East.
