Bethlehem (Palestinian Territories) (AFP) - A senior Palestinian official warned US President-elect Donald Trump Friday that keeping his word and moving the American embassy to Jerusalem would destroy prospects of a peace process with Israel.

Jerusalem was a final-status issue to be negotiated between Israel and the Palestinians, secretary general of the Palestine Liberation Organisation Saeb Erekat told journalists, and making a decision on it now "will be the destruction of the peace process".

The Peace process should have ended years ago. The Palestinians will never give in. We should stop funding them.

Saw the headline and immediately thought, OK do we have to guess at the downside?

Doesn’t the PA “peace process” yield the same result as multiplying another number by zero?

As if there ever was or will be a “peace process” when Moslems are involved. Only progs are naive enough to believe that malarky.

It is about time that “process

It is about time for that “process” to be ashcanned. Not putting the embassy in Jerusalem is an intended signal that the US is going to eventually force Israel to turn the city over to the saracens.

Warn Trump all you want. The Palestinians can take their rightful place along with the other losers of the evolutionary game if they continue to choose force over diplomacy.

The Palestinians have never been interested in peace with Israel.
They want Israel destroyed.
They want all the land.

The Israelis should have shoved them all out in 1967 and let the Jordanians and Egyptians take them as they claimed until then that they were their citizens.

LOL! What they mean is they will be alone with their rockets and end up paying even bigger prices for the terrorism and carnage they keep wreaking despite the “cease fires” they usually manage to keep for 15 minutes or so. That worries them - and rightly so.

“Peace” to Muslims means the absence of non-Muslims.

Here is the deal, Palis. Either you make peace with what you’ve got or you keep on losing.

I think it’s much simpler than that. As a matter of policy, the U.S. does not locate an embassy on land that is subject to a territorial dispute. This is why Congress never should have passed that stupid Embassy Relocation Act in the first place.
