Ma'an reports that Mahmoud Abbas refused a phone call from President Trump today and refused to accept a message from him.
Ramallah News called this snub "a heavy blow to Trump."
As always, the bizarre idea of "honor" causes people to be stupid. And if you were to find a single reason why Palestinians will never accept peace with Israel under any circumstances, it is because of "honor:" the shame of the traditionally weak, dhimmi Jews in a position of power in the center of the Arab world cannot be tolerated.
Peace plans allow Israel to exist.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
