President Donald Trump questioned Israel’s interest in making peace with the Palestinians in an interview published Sunday, spotlighting its West Bank settlements as a complicating factor.
In the interview in the Israel Hayom daily, Trump also cast doubt on the Palestinians’ desire to strike a deal. But his comments about Israel mark rare criticism from a president who has publicly sparred with the Palestinians while forging warm ties with Israel ahead of the expected presentation of a US peace outline.
“Right now, I would say the Palestinians are not looking to make peace, they are not looking to make peace. And I am not necessarily sure that Israel is looking to make peace. So we are just going to have to see what happens,” Trump was quoted as saying. He did not disclose details about the anticipated peace plan.

There will be no peace in the Middle East until Islam is no more.
A pox on all of them. What a mess.
Everything Trump says, including this statement, is for the purpose of furthering negotiation.
Made more of a question about the Palis wanting peace, but that somehow eluded the title...
Looks like “Arab News” is trying to spin something from nothing. Bibi has stated that they intend no peace agreement with people that seek their destruction. No surprise. It’s akin to Britain saying no peace deal with Nazi Germany in 1941.
Islam is the Devil’s scourge against the entire world This is the biggest problem, threat to us all we must eliminate — for sure.
Dog bites man. The Israel part is news, not the other part.
No leftism is. People’s attention is being redirected towards Islam, and away from the real threat.
May not be as much news as the Palis not wanting peace but the headline is still deliberately misleading.
This was an AP story.
So then what are we doing there with this whole "peace process" nonsense?
I still think Islam with its evil aggressive terrorist attacks and declared intentions to conquering Christians and Jews Is the most evil thing on earth. But I also agree that the leftists who enable Islam are a huge part of the problem. Perhaps we could agree that the combination of Islam with the sell- out leftists is the most dangerous, “axis of evil” on earth today..? At any rate, all of the above are Satanic and we must must must defeat them!
Fox TV just showed a headline, Trump Reasserts Israel's Right to Defend Herself....
“Right now, I would say the Palestinians are not looking to make peace, they are not looking to make peace. And I am not necessarily sure that Israel is looking to make peace. So we are just going to have to see what happens,” Trump was quoted as saying.Arab News -- talk about an oxymoron. The so-called Palestinians -- ethnically undifferentiated Arab squatters living in Israel -- are not looking to make peace, have never been looking to make peace, and after President Trump is through with them, will spend posterity wishing they had been.
“Islam delenda est”
Islam pudendum est

Not exactly what he said. The underlying issue is Israel's consideration of annexing some cities under their control in Judea and Samaria, aka settlements. Since most of these are decades old , and most by population will be part of any peace deal ever under consideration, I don't see where it's an issue. Annexation doesn't negate later territorial concessions in the future. The real issue is that the Palestinian authority has no legitimate leadership. A leader in the 14th year of his 4 year term can't negotiate anything the world would hold successors to
pigastinians. Head ‘em up. Move ‘em out.
