White House adviser Jared Kushner delivers remarks on efforts by the Trump administration to broker an Israeli- Palestinian peace agreement.
Was watching this on Fox News and wanted to hear the entire lecture.
This is the first time I have heard Kushner speak. I am very impressed with his eloquence and grasp of the situation.
Must admit, he appears to be a peacemaker.

This was a live event. I will find an active link for replay.
While the link is no longer live, if you move the play location time on the bottom to -36:00 it will play from the beginning of Kushner’s interview.
I’m watching the replay now. What a mediocrity. Along with his stuttering, he’s blathering on about restoring Islam to what it has always been instead of the way recent terrorists have tried to pervert it. Blah, blah.
F**k “peace”. Rip out the Muslim invaders from the Temple Mount. Relocate the Al-Asqa and Dome to Mecca. Then we’ll talk.
Haim Saban, the Hillary-supporting billionaire liberal douchebag who owns Univision, introduced him! Disgusting. DEPORT KUSH NOW!
It has long grown to be a useless topic of political expediency only. How many presidents and prime ministers have tried to “fix” this constant battle??? There is ONLY ONE WAY the Palestinian problem will be fixed, and only one. The Pals do not want peace and the Arab world keeps feeding the situation as always.
Only one way to fix it.
Thanks for the insight.. Per Politico
2016 Team Clinton’s favorite billionaire
He’s a donor on the inside track. Univision’s chairman calls when he wants, gets a reply, and affects the strategy.
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — In the sprawling ecosystem of Hillary and Bill Clinton donors and fundraisers, there are thousands who fashion themselves top contributors, hundreds who consider themselves friends of the former president and secretary of state, dozens who see their role as deep-pocketed strategic advisers, and just a handful capable of dialing into the candidate’s inner circle with no obstacles.
But there is only one Haim Saban.
Known for two decades to be one of the Clintons’ top-tier supporters and a close personal friend, the billionaire chairman and part owner of Univision who brought Power Rangers to the United States has emerged in 2016 as all of the above, according to the clear picture painted by the hacked emails of campaign Chairman John Podesta published by WikiLeaks in recent weeks.
It’s not just that Saban — unanimously described by friends as brash and loving, particularly enamored of the Democratic nominee to the point of being famously upset when she lost to Barack Obama in 2008 — can get an immediate call back from Podesta or campaign manager Robby Mook with a simple, “Can one of you please call me at your earliest convenience? Tx.” And it’s not just that the private equity magnate, worth $3.6 billion according to Bloomberg, is the only West Coast donor to host Clinton for high-dollar fundraisers multiple times this cycle, contributing with his wife roughly $11.5 million to pro-Clinton 2016 efforts on top of his foundation contributions of between $10 million and $25 million, his $5 million for Bill Clinton’s presidential library in 2002, and his $7 million for a new Democratic National Committee headquarters.
It’s his apparent level of campaign involvement, between his frequent reminders to Podesta, Mook, and campaign vice-chair Huma Abedin about the electoral power of Latinos, the occasional questions about Clinton’s public pronouncements on Israel — he has famously said “I’m a one-issue guy and my one issue is Israel” — and even his scattered bits of advice about nitty-gritty political warfare.
The Egyptian-born Saban, a vociferous advocate for Israel and founder of the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution who has been accused by conservatives of inappropriately using his perch at Univision to influence coverage — a charge he and associates vigorously deny — is hardly an uncontroversial figure, dating back long before the stretch when Clinton would fly on his plane during her years in the Senate.
But his position near the top of Clinton’s world is unquestionable: None of his fellow top fundraisers or donors agreed to speak about him with POLITICO on the record, but they unanimously characterized the Los Angeles resident as adjacent to some of her tightest orbits of influence.
That description is corroborated by the emails, illuminated in particular by the ease with which he interacts with Podesta, Mook and Abedin — three top aides who are largely inaccessible even to most of Clinton’s donors — including when he’s setting up informal meals with them, or forwarding them a cartoon, appending a slyly smiling emoji.
Per Wiki:
Saban supported Hillary Clinton for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Between June 2015 and June 2016, he and his wife donated US$7 million to Priorities USA, a pro-Clinton Super PAC. Meanwhile, Saban has called Republican candidate Donald Trump “a danger to America”.[36]
I was always dubious about his big peace plan. How does it fix the Palestinians that have been teaching their kids to hate Jews for generations?
Agreed. It will take at least a generation.
Genenerations accelerate in times of war.
Jared knows and understands that which you never can.
You ignore the reality of the President’s trip to Riyadh that put to rest that which you erroneously believe
There is potential there—and also potential that we are helping the Saudis to build the next caliphate. I personally don’t get jazzed about hundreds of billions in weapons deals to the Saudis.
Jared’s talk about the Saudi king’s deep concern for the Palestinians made me want to puke—nobody treats immigrant Palestinians worse than the Saudis.
If Jared is defending Muslims, he is no better than George Bush.
Did you find a link to view the replay?
Same link and use the locator on the bottom to move it to...... -30:00 if I remember correctly
Make that -36:00
Thanks you I just watched it. Very interesting. The kid plays his cards very close, which is what is needed. And he even said the same thing in an offhand comment about trusting the people he speaks with.
Another comment he told Haim Saban during the campaign, who was a major Hillary and Obama supporter, that if he cares about US-Israel relations he better hope Trump wins.
The video I sawe actually starts at around 13 minutes if you use the youtube link at the very top of this page.
