US weapons sales opportunity:
“The only path for peace for the Palestinians is ending this brutal Israeli occupation and granting the Palestinians their inalienable rights for self-determination. Without that there is no path to peace in the region,” Al Jazeera quoted Ammar Hijazi, assistant minister of multilateral affairs for the Palestinian Authority, as saying.
Hijazi called the White House ceremony a “photo op” that “only crowns Israel as the policeman of the region” and paves the way for more U.S. weapons sales to the Arab countries.
Qatar has ruled out normalization of ties with Israel until the Palestinians are granted their own state, within borders from before Israel conquered significant territory in a 1967 war, and with East Jerusalem as its capital. Those conditions are part of the Arab Peace Initiative, written by Saudi Arabia and unanimously adopted by the Arab League in 2002, and which remains, at least symbolically, the group’s joint position.
BTW:
Jesus was a Palestinian in practically every sense who spoke Aramaic and whose family may have practiced the Jewish faith. If Jesus had offspring, his offspring would certainly be Palestinian Arabs today and most likely Muslim.Last edited by firstfloor; 09-16-2020, 01:48 AM.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde

You seem to be like the audience for Michelle Wolf's Netflix program "The Break with Michelle Wolf" when she asked them the question "Are You Sort Of Hoping We Don't Get Peace With North Korea So You Wouldn't Have To Give Trump Credit?" 71% said "yes"

Originally posted by Starlight View PostThe US gives 'foreign aid' to lots of countries for a huge variety of reasons. Why do you specifically interpret the foreign aid to Egypt as a bribe for peace with Israel? Egypt has had a peace treaty with Israel for more than 30 years and is often regarded as Israel's strongest partner and ally in the region.
Notably, the treaty that resulted from the second “framework” also called for the United States to provide both countries with billions in annual subsidies, including military aid. Under the terms negotiated, Egypt receives $1.3 billion annually in military aid from the United States, while Israel receives $3 billion.

Both Pelosi and di Blasio were doing this in March when the pandemic was already sweeping across the country.

Originally posted by JimL View PostI understand that's meant as an insult, but it doesn't give answer to that which I have admitted to being ignorant of. So, what is the big deal? The UAE and Israel were "not so secretly" cooperating economically and technologically anyway. So why is this treaty a big deal?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
