PA’s Abbas voices confidence Trump will back Palestinian aspirations for statehood
Wishful thinking.
[IsraelTimes] Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas congratulates Donald Trump on his US presidential election victory, expressing confidence he will support Palestinians’ “legitimate aspirations” for statehood.

“We are confident that the United States will support, under your leadership, the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people,” Abbas says in a statement carried by the official PA news agency WAFA, reaffirming what he calls the Palestinian commitment to “the pursuit of freedom, self-determination and statehood, in accordance with international law.”

#1 A Paleostinian state is a great idea! The only question is where to put it. Anywhere near the Juice is obviously out of the question. Maybe we could get the Chinese to build them one of those man-made islands in the South China Sea.

#2 I chose to listen to my local NPR station today while running errands, just to see what they’re saying in precincts I no longer inhabit. Among other things, they had on Politico’s big turban, who said that the Two State Solution is accepted as no longer possible, and the only question is whether Israel formally absorbs the West Bank or continues on the current informal course.

I almost nearly crashed the car. What other miracles has President Trump accomplished after only two days as the future president?

#3 America's trick on the victor:
In Al-Nakba, District of Sitka,
A black turban's wife
Endures marital strife
With her bodyguard built like Mike Ditka.

#4 He needs to meet with Putin. London, Geneva, Rome, someplace. Iron out a Ukie ceasefire. I think he could do it. Ivan WANTS a solid relationships, trade and otherwise with the US.

#6 @#4 - Agreed, Besoeker, and I should think the US wants solid relationships and trade with Russian and others as well.
