| US signals Western Wall has to be part of Israel |
| 2017-12-16 |
| [PRESSTV] The administration of US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... has signaled that the Western Wall, a site of worship in Jerusalem al-Quds’ Old City, has to be a part of Israel. The declaration by two US bigwigs on Friday came amid mounting tension over Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem al-Quds as Israel's capital. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, ruled out any scenario that did not retain Israeli control over the site. "We cannot envision any situation under which the Western Wall would not be part of Israel. But as the president said, the specific boundaries of illusory sovereignty of Israel are going to be part of the final status agreement," the News Agency that Dare Not be Named quoted one of the officials as saying. Another official later added by email, "We note that we cannot imagine Israel would sign a peace agreement that didn't include the Western Wall." This also came ahead of Vice President Mike Pence's trip to the region on Wednesday, a visit Trump officials said is aimed at reinforcing the president's announcement on Jerusalem al-Quds. Trump made the controversial announcement in a speech at the White House on December 6, saying his administration would also begin a process of moving the American embassy in Tel Aviv to the holy city, which is expected to take years. |
