Washington – The Palestinian’s top envoy to the United States is warning that moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem could disrupt efforts to secure peace in the Middle East.

Maen Areikat says an “emotional decision” to shift the embassy’s location “is going to have very, very negative repercussions” and could seriously complicate and undermine any future efforts to resolve the conflict between the Palestinians and the Israelis.
Areikat, chief of the PLO delegation in Washington, spoke Monday at a conference sponsored by J Street, a liberal Jewish advocacy group.
Conservative Republicans favor moving the embassy to Jerusalem and President Donald Trump endorsed the relocation during the presidential campaign.
Areikat says the Palestinians have made their position clear, directly and indirectly, to the Trump administration.
Hopefully president Trump will not reward threats of terror by giving in..,,
What the world denies (pathological denial, that is) is that Palestinians will commit terror regardless of all decisions. They will threaten, and they will try to follow through with their evil. They will commit to peace, but will not live up to that commitment. Their Koran accommodates for dishonesty, whether by making promises with no intent to keep them or by simply saying untruths. Meanwhile, we are afflicted with the disease of political correctness that has cast all traces of morality aside, and blindly subscribes to the notions of “peace” as the savages want it. Whatever the Muslims get, they will use it towards terror and murdering Israelis (and Americans). Just that by offering them land for their “sovereign” state, they will convert it into a launching pad for more terror. We all know this. History has proven that many times over. Terror has only decreased when Israel crushed the forces of evil. Kerry and other terror lovers stopped the war to enable Hamas and its associated terror groups to survive, restock the arsenals, and wait for the next opportune time to resume launching attacks. Today’s news, Trump won’t support that like Obama did.
Because they are looking for piece……J Street should be locked out of DC for the next 8 yrs and beyond …..As for the PLO they haven’t done anything to advance piece so maybe it’s time to reverse course
Their threats of intimidation are over . The 2 state solution is over and gone They are being exposed as gangsters that the always were, stealing all of the money that belongs to the people.
If Jews are going to be killed as a result it’s better it stays in Tel Aviv. Palestinians want all Jews dead and gone and any excuse to terrorize will be happily accepted by them.
