Well, unless you read the Da Vinci Code
A.) I concur, but the proper application of smart power is never going to happen. Put bluntly, there are always going to be dead Palestinian civilians shown on Arab TV and there are always going to be millions of people who think that's wrong and the US government is always going to say that while regrettable, the dead civilians are completely justified. That conflict isn't going away.
