I believe the West Bank should be put under Jordanian control rather than aim for a two-state solution which leaves one of the two territories determined to overthrow Israel. Egypt has moved closer to the Arab side, so Israel will have a very difficult time going forward. I hope that at the end of it there will be a negotiation, as I had the privilege to conduct at the end of the Yom Kippur War. At that time, Israel was stronger relative to the surrounding powers. Nowadays, it requires a greater involvement of America to prevent a continuation of the conflict.}}<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/middle-east/2023/12/03/kissingers-final-interview-forget-a-palestinian-state-let-jordan-rule/ Kissinger’s Final Interview: Forget a Palestinian State, Let Jordan Rule].
