- "Today Israel has taken a giant step
towards peace," Trump said as Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stood by his
side.
"My vision presents a win-win solution for
both sides," he said, adding that Israeli
leaders have said they will endorse the
proposal, which is referred to as the Middle
East peace plan.

I won't become a traitor
Abbas further claimed that "I was told I'll pay a
heavy price for my foolish behavior. I do not have
much longer to live and I will not go down as a
traitor. It's either dying like martyrs or flying
the Palestinian flag on the walls of Jerusalem."

Turning to Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, Abbas said
that whoever wants to help is welcome.
"We invited the Hamas movement to attend the
emergency meeting of the leadership and they will
take part in the meeting," senior Palestinian
official Azzam al-Ahmed said.
The elected government of Gaza have been at odds
with President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement for
years, with Hamas representatives rarely taking part
in meetings of the West Bank-based Palestinian
leadership.
The Palestinians meanwhile have urged world powers
to reject Trump's plan.
"We call on the international community to not be
partners in this (plan) because it contravenes
international law," Palestinian prime minister
Mohammed Shtayyeh said on Monday.
The details of Trump's initiative, which has been in
the works since 2017, are not yet public.
The release of the plan comes as Trump faces
impeachment hearings over abuse of office.
Netanyahu is facing imminent trial proceedings,
after dropping his request for parliamentary
immunity from corruption charges in a surprise move
Tuesday.
"This is a plan to protect
Trump from impeachment and protect Netanyahu from
prison," Shtayyeh told a cabinet meeting Monday. "It
is not a Middle East peace plan."
With little global support for Trump’s plan, it’s
likely destined for the trash heap of diplomatic
history. Before it goes there, though, you can
