Palestine to cut off all communication with the US in latest embarrassment for Kushner



The Palestinians threatened on Saturday (18 November) to suspend all communication with the United States if the Trump administration follows through with plans to close their diplomatic office in Washington. The potential rupture in relations threatens to undermine President Donald Trump's bid for Mideast peace — a mission he has handed his son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Senior Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said the US decision was "very unfortunate and unacceptable," and accused Washington of bowing to pressure from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government "at a time when we are trying to cooperate to achieve the ultimate deal."

This is another fine diplomatic mess you have gotten the world into with your degenerate morals, ethics and dip-LOW-macy, combined with your freaking cabal of KGOP TreasonWeasel FAILfreak screwups.

JarJar Kushner has the anti-magical Toxic Touch, so common among the family cronies of Comrade Casino, the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief.

to think that you can wander into a centuries old regional melee and aim to fix it, despite having absolutely no knowledge of the area, its people, the principles, etc., and not bothering to waste any time to study or be debriefed.

It's just completely beyond my imagination.
