The Middle East, whats next?

As The Islamic state seems to be in decline the face of the new middle east is taking shape.
Saudia Arabia is now aligned with Israel in its fight with radical Islam.
The Palestinian issue whatever that means has become a non starter as few are discussing the problem.
Israel is dragging its feet in changing the discourse of the final status of Judea and Samaria.
Those with any common sense understand that Israel is not the problem but part of the solution.
Bold measures need to be taken by Israeli leaders.
Those measures are clear.
Annexation of parts of Judea and Samaria to Israel.
Those areas in Gush Eztion bloc and Maaaleh Adumim should become a legal part of Israel as the Golan heights were some thirty six years ago.
This should be done immediately.
Many of the Arabs in these areas will opt for citizenship or may wish to continue as permanent residents.
In any case they will benefit for improved health care and other social services.
The present situation of just waiting and waiting is ridiculous.
Benjamin Netanyahu is just sitting back and doing nothing
Sitting back and doing noting is not an option.
It never was.
