Oh, those poor Palestinian leaders.That is ugly on Trump's part, but the PA's incitement and refusal to come to the table to negotiate is as well.They also stopped all funding to Jerusalem hospitals that serve Palestinians.
But that's ethically ok apparently.
Trump freezes funding to east Jerusalem hospitals
Mind you, I do not condone this move. But it is not Israel doing it, it is the American Administration.
Believe me that just as there are European and other countries stepping up to fund UNWRA after the US stopped any funding of that organization, there will be countries and other organizations (including Israel, which always helps the Palestinians with health care ) willing to fund those hospitals to make sure that no job or patient has to suffer because of it.
Looks like we kind of posted at the same time. Yes, it's the US doing it, and it's very ugly.
Two sides need to come to the table. Only one is being pressured in an abhorent way.
They are being pressured to do something so abhorrent to them like.....sitting across Jews and actually negotiating a Peace treaty.
As if they would accept ANY peace treaty, at all.
2000?
2008?
Does it ring a bell?
Attacking hospitals and medical treatment is disgusting. That is not the way conduct a peace process or facilitate negotations.
Is Israel giving up any of IT'S preconditions for peace? Or is it only the Palestinians who are being pressured to do so?
