June 25, 2018 -- The US Middle East Peace Plan


Recently, Jared Kushner has stated that the US Middle East peace plan will be revealed soon.  Jordanian King Abdullah II and US President Trump met in the White House on Monday.  Although Trump said progress has been made in the Israeli-Palestinian peace plan, he refused to give a timeline.  Here is a short video of the event that also included the First Lady and Queen Rania Al Abdullah.  Also in the news today, Iranians protested on the streets of Tehran on Monday in response to the growing economic problems in the country.  In a strange turn of events and it is worth waiting to see if the claim is true, protesters are to have shouted, “Death to Palestine,” “Help us, not Gaza,” and “Leave Syria alone and deal with Iran.”  There also was a report on Monday that the Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman has thrown the Palestinians under the Bus; and that the US and Arab governments believe they can force Mahmoud Abbas into submission.  However, the Fatah leader in Gaza Yahya Rabah argues that the Trump plan cannot succeed without President Abbas.  A senior Palestinian official, Saeb Erekat’s, has even gone as far as accusing the US of trying to topple Abbas’ government.
