this year everything from recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel moving its embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem to the other actions that it has taken. yes indeed the palestinian leadership has been absolutely adamant that they will have no part in discussing or negotiating any initiative that president trump would be released the simple reason they argue is that the u.s. cannot be seen as an independent impartial arbiter in the ongoing crisis this because they see the trump administration as completely openly biased towards israel something incidentally that the trumpet ministration does not deny in any way president trump has made quite clear that his national priority is to insure israeli security to protect israel that is his public position and from the palestinian side there is no interest whatsoever in taking part in a process that they believe is biased towards israel from the out and one must also to see the deterioration of the relationship between the u.s. and palestinian and why the terms that embassy has been shut down in washington diplomats have been had their visas
