Trump Administration to Close Palestine Liberation Organization Office in Washington

FTA: “The US State Department has announced it is ordering the closure of the Washington mission of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), a move that has drawn strong reaction from Palestinians.

"We have permitted the PLO office to conduct operations that support the objective of achieving a lasting, comprehensive peace between Israelis and the Palestinians since the expiration of a previous waiver in November 2017," State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said on Monday.

"However, the PLO has not taken steps to advance the start of direct and meaningful negotiations with Israel,” she stated.”

There is no good reason why the Palestinians should not return to the peace negotiations. None. But they don’t.

 

[Lyndon]

Same can be said for the USA

That makes no sense whatsoever. The U.S. isn’t in conflict with the PA nor Israel. The U.S. has consistently said it will facilitate any peace talks with no pre-conditions.

Says the Trump supporter. Never met a Jew who cow toed to Trump who has an anti-semitic background.

Trump cut off humanitarian aid to the Palestinians a few days ago. I was a little surprised not to see a thread about it.
US aid cutoff to UN agency serving Palestinians is welcome news

So much for peace in the middle east. I guess it's time to continue the whole bombing each other over a plot of land again.

Including funding for hospitals in part of Jerusalem. A little more help from Trump maybe the Palestinians will just wither away and die off. But they're no exactly without blame when they continue bombing Israel.

Ah yes, the old "we have to bomb them to prove to them that bombing people is wrong!" argument.

Ah yes, the old "we have to bomb them to prove to them that bombing people is wrong!" argument.

I think it has to be admitted that a segment of the Palestinians are not looking for peace with Israel as they have no right to acquire the land they did.

 

[Lyndon]

Speaking of people who have no right to the land they have.

Sure. Doesn't really justify a lot of what Israel does indiscriminately

as they have no right to acquire the land they did.

Well... that's kinda the whole argument, isn't it?

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

Palestinian lives matter.

Except for being barred from the un, their land being stolen, their sons being killed and daughters gang raped, herded into inhuman conditioned and medical aid withheld everything is hunky dory for peace negotiations

I suppose their mission to the UN will still remain open.

Yeah because with that Mission in Washington there was so much peace.

A little more help from Trump maybe the Palestinians will just wither away and die off.

lol what

The only way to peace for Israel and Palestine is a two state solution. Anything else is just wishful thinking.

 

[Shad]

Israel should have been cut off as well. Alias Israeli has geo-political value while the PLO's doesn't.

 

[ChristineM]
