Will President Trump achieve the impossible breakthrough his predecessors were unable to accomplish? Or, like his predecessors, will he fall victim to two-faced Arab Palestinian leadership?
Let's not forget how hard President Bill Clinton tried to forge an agreement between Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak and PLO founder Yasser Arafat during the Camp David ll negotiations in 2000. Prior to negotiations, Arafat was all smiles and sounded committed to peace between the Arab Palestinians and Israel. Negotiations dragged on and on. Barak provided Arafat with an incredible offer, which would have placed Israeli security at great risk: virtually 100% of Judea and Samaria, commonly called the West Bank. Jerusalem would have been divided, and eastern Jerusalem would be awarded to the Arab Palestinians. A land bridge between Judea and Samaria and the Gaza Strip was included, effectively splitting Israel in half. Compensation for so-called refugees was included.
President Clinton would later say he could not believe how good the offer was. Yet all Arafat said was "no." In the end, Clinton was furious with him and publicly blamed him for the collapse of the talks. Subsequent to the failed negotiations, the Arab Palestinians rioted, and an extended intifada ensued.
Arafat fell from favor as far as Clinton was concerned. He learned a painful and embarrassing lesson: Arafat could not be trusted.
In 2002, when the late Ariel Sharon was prime minister, President George W. Bush was attempting to persuade Arafat to stop his terrorist activity and pursue peace with Israel. Sharon then dropped the hammer on the two-faced Arafat. He provided documents that proved that while Arafat kept up the diplomatic chatter, he was signing off on terrorist operations. Bush was angry and embarrassed. He had had faith that Arafat could be a genuine peace partner.

There has never been a Palestine country.
That’s the one.
“Israelis are “Palestinians” too. Accepting only “Arabs” as Palestinians is a lie that started over fifty years ago.”
That is the reason I used smart quotes. It used to be one was a Jewish Palistinian or an Arab Palestinian. There was always a designation. Until Arafat, that is. Now ‘Palestinians’ are just disgruntled Jordanian Arabs.
Unlike Clinton, who was trying to create a last-minute legacy, Trump has time on his side — nearly eight years.
Clinton knew how to bully women — and be bullied by Hillary. Trump knows how to negotiate and win.
She rapidly because very close to the Clintons and looked out for Arafat's interests
Arafat was often question by the murdering terrorists why he dealt with the USA and Israel at all.
His one word answer was always “Tacqiyya”
Huma was a White House intern for Hillary at the same time Monica Lewinsky was ‘interning’ for Bill. Quite a co-inky-dink.
Huma’s connection seems to have been through the Muslim Students Association, Clinton intimate Abdurahman Alamoudi, and Saudi Abdullah Omar Nasseef.
Oops. I intended to point out that when this was going on, Arafat was himself the White House’ most frequent visitor, and wife Suha has been described as almost living in the WH as Hillary’s guest.
Bull. Clinton hated Israel and was happy to give Arafat something he knew would never be honored. Trump does not feel that way, he will make sure that Israel is protected in any deal.
The early days of the 2008 Hillary Clinton campaign was the source of Arafat being behind Huma being brought into the Clinton White House
At the time, Hillary was trying desperately to “ introduce” Huma to the American public
In retrospect, it seems Huma is both Mata Hari and concubine.
