WASHINGTON (Reuters) - White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and his team are headed to Saudi Arabia and Qatar this week for talks ...

Kushner’s trip comes after the killing on Friday of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh in Tehran...

Days before the killing, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu travelled to Saudi Arabia and met with bin Salman, an Israeli official said, in what was the first publicly confirmed visit by an Israeli leader. Israeli media said they were joined by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

The historic meeting underlined how opposition to Tehran is bringing about a strategic realignment of countries in the Middle East. Bin Salman and Netanyahu fear Biden will... ...

in America, one would hardly know of such a 'historic meeting'. Because our press doesn't cover such things.

The media has not served the American people and should be ruined

Don’t worry, I’m sure Biden and the Hooker already have plans to sabotage and destroy this Peace Deal Trump put together.

That’s nice. All hands on deck emergency time and he runs to hang with the camel jockeys.

Deck chairs... Titanic. Time to focus on the next two weeks here in America.

What is your problem? Without Jared Kushner, none of the already signed on countries would be with Israel...I know it’s popular among people here to denigrate the president’s daughter and her husband. Give it up...he needs them and he trusts them. You would begrudge him that help?

Blow it out your tailpipe pal. We are two weeks away from the electoral college vote. Between now and then, there are numerous court cases, PR opportunities, and a desperate need to build coalitions and bridges with the State legislatures that are all that can save us.

And he is going to spend that time focusing on the damned hell-bound un-Christian Saudi throwbacks. So I guess -that- would be my problem.

Jared would be zero help in Georgia. That is not what he is good at.

In case you haven’t notice, there is some “stuff” going on in the Persian Gulf. Some ships sinking. Some guys getting shot up. Some embassies getting rocketed.

This seems more like a war council than a peace meeting.

This young man has done more for peace than Hillary Clinton did as SoS.

Hmmm.

Could it be that Mohsen Fakhrizadeh is a defector?

Assault circumstances look “too clean” to be an assassination.

Also, why is his family safely out of the country.

More news at 11 pictures at 12, as they say.

Oh! Boy! And if Kushner stays home, he will be able to do all those things. Get a life. I would bet you are one who has complained about Kushner’s role working with his father in law all this time and now he has to stay home and do the work that others are doing!

I’ll go out on a limb here and say you are Anti-Israel and don’t want to see the president succeed with regard to Israel and Arab countries when all other presidents have failed or haven’t even attempted.

With that, this tired old grandmother is shutting down for the night...and I’m not your pal!

You are right....thank you. Makes a difference when someone is doing it because it’s right and not to make points - not that Hillary ever made any points - LOL...

Kushner certainly has accomplished more than that idiot Kerry ever did.

If the Saudis sign on to the regional peace deal in the next month or so you can be sure it will be Plugs who gets the Nobel Peace Prize...even if SCOTUS makes the right decision regarding the election theft.

And not a damned bit of that matters if the next 15 days go wrong. And forget Georgia, maybe send him to Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

They point is that he has no negotiating power THERE if THEY believe Trump is gone in 7 weeks. So it’s pointless to send him, and he needs to find something helpful to do HERE.

Whatever pal. I put America and us holding power ahead of Israel and way ahead of the Saudi dune people.

Each person on a team has special set of skills.

If Trump thought he would be more useful here, he would be here.

You are arguing for Trump to be re-elected...yet you are double guessing his decisions.

And if you think a Jewish Nerd, Real estate guy is going to be useful in Atlanta, Philly, Detroit, or Milwaukee....I would suggest you think that through better.

there’s a little incident with Iran that has prompted some meetings on what people are going to do regarding reducing Iranian influence in the ME while tiptoeing on glass. These trips are very necessary, even if they don’t seem so on the surface.

“Could it be that Mohsen Fakhrizadeh is a defector?”

If Mossad believe they can get info out of the guy then I’d say defection or a kidnapping would be a definite possibility. At least 2 of my friends in Israel believe the scientist is in Israeli or possibly Saudi hands now.
