the composition of the board of peace is mostly not important, as everybody is going to vote the way trump tells them, which is why they're there.

i think that gaza needs local government, not an international oversight body.

however, who has a real role in an international oversight body like this board of peace?

- egypt, obviously
- israel, obviously

- the british have a role to play due to the british mandate and the suez canal
- the french should purposefully not be invited as they have no role to play in gaza, in lebanon, in syria or anywhere else in the middle east
- no other western european country should be invited

- the united states needs to be on the board
- canada should not be invited
- no country in latin america, and especially not nazi-aligned argentina, should be invited

- iran should be invited in principle, but an iranian opposition group should represent them, not the current government
- greece should be invited
- italy should be invited
- turkey should be invited
- these are the four stable historical powers in the region

- jordan should be invited
- lebanon should be invited
- syria should be invited in principle, but a syrian opposition group should represent syria, not the current government
- saudi arabia should be invited in principle, but an opposition group should represent them, not the current governent
- no other arab country should be invited 

so that is:

- the governments of the united states, egypt, israel, the uk, greece, italy, turkey, jordan and lebanon and democratic opposition groups representing the iranian, syrian and saudi arabian governments.
