Trump Ends PLO Support

[NightTrain]

This has been long overdue.

Giving US taxpayer money to a committed group of terrorists is freaking insane - and then providing offices here in the USA for them, to boot?
Definitely headed in the right direction.


I think it's funny that the first instinct of the PLO SpokesTerrorist was to demand the UN make us continue to shovel money at them. I don't think the little jihadist has been paying attention to who is behind the wheel in the last 18 months. Are the fumes from the C4 addling his logic circuits?

The Trump administration will take steps to close the Palestine Liberation Organization office in Washington, D.C., a senior Palestinian diplomat confirmed Monday.

Senior diplomat Dr. Saeb Erekat demanded the international community to intervene in what he argued were U.S. “attacks against the international system as a whole” to defend Israel.


“We have been notified by a US official of their decision to close the Palestinian Mission to the US. This is yet another affirmation of the Trump Administration’s policy to collectively punish the Palestinian people, including by cutting financial support for humanitarian services including health and education,” he said in a statement.


CBS News and the Wall Street Journal both reported the decision early Monday morning.


It comes after the Trump administration cut about $25 million in aid on Saturday originally allotted for Palestinians in East Jerusalem hospitals.


National Security Adviser John R. Bolton will formally close the PLO’s doors on Monday until they join the negotiation table with Israel, the Wall Street Journal reported. Mr. Bolton’s speech will also reportedly threaten to sanction the International Criminal Court if it agrees to a Palestinian request that the U.S. and Israel be investigated.
