$50 billion. That's like 17 Tilmans. Maybe we can offer to resettle Palestinians (and Israelis) in Upstate NY, Kansas, Ohio, or any number of thinly polulated areas in this country. We have plenty of space and can use more people as birth rate declines.
Jared Kushner - the Savior of the Middle East. Surely, he'll be able to solve this situation that's been in turmoil since before he was born.
Fantastic tweet thread from the Economist magazine reporter covering the meetings. Hard to know for certain but I wouldn't advise trump-in-law to create space on his badminton participation award shelf for the Nobel... Probably the single best tweet summary, but you should follow Carlstrom's entire twitter thread...
Jared's terms of surrender are DOA, but the Trump Admin wants to be able to say they made a proposal (the greatest proposal, which includes billions of dollars of investment in Palestine) and the crazy, barbaric, irrational Palestinians wouldn't listen because they are bent on death and destruction and want to push Israel into the sea. Trumpers will eat that ish up.
True... but if Palestine is pushing Israel into the sea they seem to be going about it the wrong way...
Congratulations to Avi. That's going to look fantastic on his resume. Unless he ends up a pariah after deTrumpification.
Well at least Trump is not wasting energy on this useless task. There will not be peace as long as Palestinians and Israelis do not want peace themselves.
There's a postponement, but looks like Israel is going to go ahead with Jared peace "agreement" even though Palestinians have not agreed and they're going to gobble up a bunch more of the scraps they'd formerly left to the Palestinians. Recentish article: https://apnews.com/27d373978c683097ca06137bea8ee8b8 It's one thing to watch an ally and friend behave in this way. Even worse when our own country is directing their action.
What goes around comes around, it took the Jewish people 2000 years, let's see how long it take the Palestinians to get their country back.
Glad this has its own thread (been posting in the trump WTF thread)... Israel already trying to grab more settlements...

US had given Isreal $250B to achieve current chaos. If another $50B can truly make peace out it........ it wont happen.
