Not to Worry

It is quite obvious to me that Trump's move on Jerusalem and now the Golan Heights is a two edged sword. A plus for Israel, but also a message to the Palestinians leadership that there are things on the table for them to ask for. While this may have seemed like a good idea at the time, things have changed in the US, where Muslim representatives have entered the US Congress, who are definitely anti-Israel and probably antisemitic. The Palestinian leadership is fully aware of this development and will further bide their time to see how this all unfolds since the expanding Black caucus appears to side with the Muslim contingent! As I've said before, many times. the Arab/Palestinians have always said time was on their side!
