I wouldn't "replace" them at all. I'd prefer a paradigm shift, whereby we maintain equally neutral relations with all nations everywhere. What chaps my ass is that we offer Israel political cover for their abominable human rights policies, and pay them handsomely to boot. We're not a fair broker in the region, and everyone knows it, which exacerbates all the problems we claim to be attempting to address.

Of course you don't. It is far away. Wait till it comes knocking on your door then you worry about what to do. That was the same attitude they had when they appeased Hitler who needed more "living space". What would have happened if they stopped him there and then?
So, tell me who is a fair broker? Nobody as far as I know. The reason a person is a broker at all is they are trying to slant it to their favor and not because there is a genuine feeling of fairness or to do the right thing. If it is the genuine feeling you are looking for, get GM parts where the feeling is genuine or so their motto goes. The problem we claim to address is window dressing. You know it and so does everyone else. The problem the other side claims to be addressing? Same thing. Everybody lies.
How old are you? I was never that naive at 16.
