A few miles down the road from Israels gated embassy, the Palestinian envoy to Washington sits in his office wrestling with a unique diplomatic dilemma: how to advance his peoples cause when relations with the United States are so distant that he hasnt even spoken to the White House in months.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has written off President Donald Trump, cursing him and declaring him an illegitimate broker for peace. Trump has reacted angrily, threatening to cut off all U.S. aid and dismissing Palestinian claims that he blew up any semblance of impartiality by declaring Jerusalem to be Israels capital. [ ]
Its not like I am not speaking to them. My phone is open, Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian ambassador, said in an hourlong interview in his office, flanked by the Palestinian flag and portraits of Abbas and former leader Yasser Arafat.
No one has called, he said. Not since Dec. 6 the day Trumps Jerusalem declaration triggered an unraveling of trust, diplomacy and optimism about the long-awaited peace plan being crafted by his son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Nor has there been any substantial contact between the Palestinians and the Americans at the United Nations, according to officials from both sides.

Palestinians are terrorists.
...the day Trumps Jerusalem declaration triggered an unraveling of trust, diplomacy and optimism about the long-awaited peace plan being crafted by his son-in-law, Jared Kushner.Another fake journalist and media shill carries water for a terrorist.
the Pals can go pound sand
why the FU** is this PLO/PA/Abbas/Fakestinian DA**ed Terrorist Nest of vipers STILL IN USA!?????????????????
KICK THEM THE HE** OUT, NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pallies had no notion of being a country before Israel turned the desert into a garden and a country. They didn’t even call themselves Palestinians. After Israel it was “me too.”
ps: and I sure hope USA has stopped giving the Fakestinians money, arms, and military training, too.
We need to make sure we have come clean on enabling these damned murder gangs, all of them!
President Trump doesn’t pal around with terrorists? What a disappointment to America’s enemies on the left! It’s no wonder they miss Barack Hussein.
They are still getting aid? Boy are we dumbl.
“They are still getting aid? Boy are we dumb.”
That was only The Dons first year in office.
There’s 7 more to go.
Associated Press sells its ‘palestinians.’
irks my ass that we give these murdering scum one dime of American money/.
I guess it's Trump's fault that the Palestinians conduct terrorism, kill Jews, launch missiles into Israel, and give donated US dollars to the families of suicide bombers. Maybe "trust, diplomacy and optimism" wouldn't "unravel" so quickly if they stopped doing that. As long as what the Palestinians say in English is different from what they say in Arabic, they can sit forever alone in their offices in the USA, and can be happy that they are allowed to do even that..
..................
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has written off President Donald Trump...should be noted he wrote off Obama too. In the context of cooperation with the "peace process". Only difference, Obama blamed Israel.
Another difference. Obama didn’t have Dubya’s former SOS coming over and telling him to ignore Obama ‘cause he won’t be POTUS for long. They ought to jail John F’in Kerry for that. He gives a-holes and doofuses a bad name.
Ostracism....... effective policy
I’ll talk to him. As long as he thinks “ I wish the Israelis would wipe you barbarians off the map” is a good conversation starter.
