Trump won't release peace plan before Israel's election

Source: Axios

President Trump has decided not to publish his Israeli-Palestinian peace plan, or parts of it, before Israel's Sep. 17 elections, White House special envoy Jason Greenblatt said in a tweet.

Why it matters: Trump has spoken twice about this issue in the last 2 weeks, and he had raised the possibility the plan would be at least partially released before the elections. That could have had a big influence on the outcome of the elections and on the formation of the next governing coalition. The president and his Middle East “peace team," headed by Jared Kushner, had several discussions on this issue before deciding to wait, a White House official tells me.

"plan". Maybe it's just to get ol' Beanyamean reelected and do whatever Putin says.

5. Just like the non-existent health care plan that would be revealed within 30 days of taking office?

100% BS on both topics, there was and is still no health care plan just like there is no peace plan other than Israel gets all the land and the Palestinians are allowed to be nothing more than slaves. He doesn't want this to be seen by Israel because it blows the whistle on his and little murderers total con.

Nov. 2018 elections. Of course nothing came out of it. Another broken promise, one that he didn't intend to keep.

Trump has a double-secret plan that's spectacular, but he'll only release the details after he's re-elected. No kidding, he really said that, and his slack-jawed, mouth breathing moron cult following actually believes the lying sack of shit! Lucy is going to pull the football away from Charlie Brown one more time. It's always fun to watch.

6. Peace plan? There's a peace plan?

We all know that Trump doesn’t have the brain power to do more than order a Big Mac. If Kushner designed a peace plan, it would be to force Palestinians out of the West Bank so that big Trump and Kushner hotels, substandard housing units, and golf clubs for the rich can be built. Where the Palestinians would go would be their problem.

If Miller has designed a peace plan, it will require all Palestinians to be moved from the West Bank and Gaza to the Sinai desert. That the Sinai will not sustain life is immaterial to Miller. It would be a direct land swap—the West Bank and Gaza for a desert.

I cannot wait for these people to leave Washington. History will not be kind to them.

Or is Stephen Miller working on it? If so, Jews should be very concerned, you don't get a Nazi to write a peace plan for Israel, that is like hiring a fox to guard the chickens.
