Abbas on Trump Golan tweet: If you want to be a ruler, abide by international law

“Mr. President Trump, you are not a ruler. You are not a ruler of the world. There is international legitimacy. There are international laws. If you want to be a ruler, you must abide by international legitimacy.”

This article is almost a month old and was covered earlier in threads. I thought as we are coming up on the two day meetings it was a good time to remind.


Caught in a Trump trap, Netanyahu pins his hopes on Abbas

Bennett claims Netanyahu has already signed off on the terms of a US peace agreement, which he says includes creation of Palestinian state and division of Jerusalem, and the prime minister is now in the position of depending on the PA to save him from the fallout of such a dramatic departure from his usual political rhetoric.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trapped in a spectacular manner. US President Donald Trump, not known for his conciliatory nature, expects something in return for his decision to move the US embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing the city as Israel's capital.
That concession by Israel, sources close to Netanyahu say, will be in accepting the "deal of the century" drafted by the US president, which reportedly has several clauses that the prime minister will find hard to swallow.

and now add the Golan.

The choices
1/Netanyahu has already accepted the "deal of the century" and Israel will be divided or..
2/Netanyahu is counting on the far right coalition he is putting together to blame for non cooperation. or...
3/He is counting on the Palestinians...he may have to stir that pot a little to help it along.

I will truly be shocked if this "Plan" divides Jerusalem but I guess we shall soon see.
