Nothing make me an expert, that is why I rely on people who have education and experience like Pompeo, Burns and experts at the state department and UN. I don't think someone who's life experience was managing real estate should be making decisions in the ME anymore than someone who trained horses should be in charge of FEMA. Just because he is the presidents son-in-law doesn't make him an expert on anything.
Trump claimed after he moved the embassy to Jerusalem that we were going to have a peace plan, is this it.
lol - so you got nothin'. Good to know.
(in case you are having trouble with this, your admitted ignorance and lack of qualifications means you are not qualified to judge someone else's qualifications....)
I'm 100% in favor of that too. It's not an all or nothing proposition to me though. Cutting aid to Pakistan and Palestine, regardless of Israel, is a good thing.
You left out the US State Department and Mike Pompeo. Anyone that believes that cutting funds and destabilizing Palestine will result in peace is a novice, tell me what Kushner's background is that makes him an expert in the middle east.
How dare you? Real estate money launderer Kushner knows more than they about foreign policy!

Bingo. He won't. Because his evangelicals need Israel for the rapture.

True ignorance is putting faith in the ability of a real estate developer to make decisions in the ME. I wouldn’t call Pompeo opinion ignorant.
I guess cutting aid to the Palestinians is phase 2 in the Trump peace plan. Pompeo and the state department were overruled by Kushner, hard to believe that the opinion of the presidents son-in-law takes precedence over those with foreign affairs experience. They are attempting to use their leverage by withholding funds to refugee camps to get the Palestinians to remove their claim to Israeli occupied lands.

Aid to countries like Pakistan that are nuclear powers by the way give us leverage on terrorism, a strong aid policy and state department are worth their weight. Which group do you think will benefit most from this action, its Hamas.

There were no details regarding Pompeo's arguments.
I'm OK cutting off all foreign giveaways, including Israel.
What happened to letting them figure it out for themselves and getting out their business?
So those on the left are upset that US taxpayers are no longer funding Palestinian terrorism? Not exactly surprising is it? The left has been supporting the slaughter of Jews since the 1930s...
By definition, over 90% of these so-called "refugees" are NOT refugees. The definition of a refugee is "a person who has left an area in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster".
The great majority of so-called "Palestinian refugees" never set foot in so-called "Palestine". They were born in Lebanon and other places. They never left "Palestine" so they can't possibly be a "Palestinian refugee". They should be citizens of their native country. Many of them are already Jordanian citizens.
LET THEM OUT OF THEIR CAGES!
There is no such thing as a "Palestinian". Palestine is a name made up by the KGB back in the days of the USSR.

The whole support behind the aid to the Arabs was after the six day war. The Arabs lost. So the amount of money for those refugees should be less now as those people have since died or established roots elsewhere.
So it needs to end. No aid for the generational people who are not refugees.
