White House walks back Sullivan’s claim US seeking consulate in East Jerusalem
|
[IsraelTimes] There has been no change in American policy regarding offices for Paleostinians closed since 2019, front man clarifies after Biden adviser apparently misspeaks.
White House spokesperson John Kirby on Wednesday walked back remarks made by US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, who said earlier that Washington wants the Paleostinians to have a consulate in East Jerusalem.
Same Jake Sullivan that pushed the Russian Dossier. Traitor and political hack
Kirby clarified that there has been no change in US policy regarding the consulate, Rooters reported.
The US is interested in reopening its consulate for Paleostinians in West Jerusalem, which was closed by former US president Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
in 2019.
Sullivan made the remarks to news hounds on Air Force One as it flew US President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. An incredibly corrupt version of Jar-Jar Binks, only well into his dotage. The dumbass who abandoned Afghanistan....
to Israel for the start of his Middle East visit.
Asked about the potential of reopening the Jerusalem consulate that served Paleostinians, Sullivan said that it is the US’s position "that we would like a consulate in East Jerusalem, obviously that requires engagement with the Israeli government, that requires engagement with the Paleostinian leadership as well, and we will continue that engagement on this trip."
Sullivan also told news hounds aboard Air Force One that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke recently on the phone with the family of slain Paleostinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.
Blinken invited the family to come to Washington to meet directly with administration officials in order to further discuss her killing, Sullivan said, after relatives of Abu Akleh last week addressed a letter to Biden, slamming his administration’s response to her death and asking to meet Biden during his visit to Israel and the West Bank.
The family expressed "grief, outrage and [a] sense of betrayal," accusing the US of trying to erase Israel’s responsibility for her death.
The US put out a statement earlier this month that said Israel did not intentionally kill Abu Akleh, even though it was likely responsible. Sullivan said the administration is still seeking accountability in the Al Jazeera news hound’s death.
A senior Israeli official acknowledged last week that Abu Akleh’s death will likely "cast a shadow" on Biden’s visit.
Sullivan also told news hounds aboard the flight that the Biden administration (aka the Wilmington comorra)
 ...the pack of self-imagined masterminds of strategy and intrigue at the service of the Biden Crime Family and a grateful nation...
was "heartened" by the recent phone call between Prime Minister Yair Lapid and Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase....
The call was the first in years between Israeli and Paleostinian leaders after Lapid’s predecessor, Naftali Bennett, refused to engage with the PA president and former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu did the same for much of his tenure.
Sullivan expressed hope that the recent call will lead to more cooperation between the sides on a path toward a two-state solution. He told news hounds that while Biden is hopeful for Israeli-Paleostinian peace efforts, "he won’t be making formal proposals for the launch of some sort of peace initiative."
