The Palestinian Authority’s rift with the U.S. is growing
deeper, according to Israeli media outlets. PA President Mahmoud Abbas
president has come to see U.S. President Donald Trump as “a lost cause,”
according to the Times of Israel.
Abbas is unglued and will not be comforted. Why? because America exercised its right to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, in keeping with Jewish history of its land. This naturally does not bode well for Palestinian interests, as their primary goal is to obliterate the Jewish state. The world still has not come to grips with the fact that appeasement of jihadists just does not work. The more they are appeased, the more empowered and emboldened they become.
According to a report aired by Channel 2 news, Abbas was
“not only closing the door, but throwing away the key” on the chance of
any future Palestinian-American relations.
Now the “White House is reportedly looking for a Palestinian liaison other than Abbas.” Congratulations to the White House in attempting to maintain its honor in getting along, but its dream is rather unlikely, unless the PA changes its charter to accept Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.
“Reports: PA President Mahmoud Abbas Instructs Staff to Sever Ties With U.S.”, Breitbart, December 25, 2017:
The Palestinian Authority’s rift with the U.S. is growing deeper, according to Israeli media outlets.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas president has come to see U.S. President
Donald Trump as “a lost cause,” according to the Times of Israel.
The PA leader reportedly instructed his staff to sever all ties with
US diplomatic officials at every level, including relations between the
Palestinians and American diplomats posted at the U.S. Consulate in East
Jerusalem.
The White House is reportedly looking for a Palestinian liaison other than Abbas.Last week, the Palestinians announced they would not meet with U.S.
Vice President Mike Pence, who was scheduled to arrive in the region.
Pence visited U.S. soldiers posted in Afghanistan instead.According to a report aired by Channel 2 news, Abbas was “not only
closing the door, but throwing away the key” on the chance of any future
Palestinian-American relations.A White House official who was interviewed by the Times of Israel
said in response to the Channel 2 report: “Apparently, the outlet that
has reported this hasn’t been paying attention over the past several
months. As we have said over and over again, we will not impose a peace
deal. That is not news. We anticipated a cooling off period and remain
as committed to peace as ever and are working hard on our plan, which we
will present when the time is right.”The Palestinians, according to Channel 2, have no plans to lift their boycott of the U.S.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan has stated that “London is a
beacon of tolerance, acceptance and diversity”, and for that precise
reason an official visit by U.S. President Donald Trump would “not be
welcomed”.
Of course Khan is playing the so-called “diversity” card, which has become synonymous with boosting Islamic supremacists; otherwise, you’re “Islamophobic.” Infidels must remain inferior in this view.
Here are some reasons why Khan is shivering in his boots at the thought of anyone actually accepting Donald Trump, and so is fervently resisting Trump’s visit to the UK:
Khan has no place being the Mayor of London.
David Kurten, the “elected member of the London assembly who issued the formal questions to Khan questioning his behaviour over Trump,” rightfully slammed Khan, stating that “Sadiq Khan’s latest outburst that President Trump is ‘not welcome’ in London is well beyond his pay grade and flies in the face of courtesy.”
“‘Not Welcome’: London’s Muslim Mayor Repeats Calls to Cancel Trump Visit”, by Oliver JJ Jane, Breitbart, December 26, 2017:
London Mayor Sadiq Khan has stated that “London is a
beacon of tolerance, acceptance and diversity”, and for that precise
reason an official visit by U.S. President Donald Trump would “not be
welcomed”.Khan made the statement in written responses to questions from a
member of the London Assembly, in which he was asked what he would do to
make President Trump “feel welcome” when the anticipated visit comes in
2018.Stating he had “previously called on Theresa May to cancel her
ill-judged offer of a state visit to President Trump”, the mayor made
clear he feels a visit by President Trump would be against the
“interests and security of Londoners”. Khan said :”It is clear that any
official visit here would not be welcomed.”Referring back to recent retweets by President Trump of three videos
purporting to show acts of Muslim violence, Mr. Khan remarked: “Many
Brits who love both America and Americans, as I do, will see recent
comments made by President Trump as hardly in tune with the special
relationship between our two countries.”Apparently, without irony, the mayor said it was because “London is a
beacon of tolerance, acceptance and diversity” that the visit by
President Trump should not go ahead, remarking that Trump is “completely
incompatible with the values Londoners hold dear”.While it has not been made clear precisely which security concerns
concern Mr. Khan about a visit from the U.S. president, the Mayor had
earlier in 2017 shrugged off the threat of terrorism as merely being
“part and parcel” of city life. Mayor Khan has also presided over an
astonishing rise of acid attacks in London, which has led to the city
being crowned the acid attack capital of the world.David Kurten, the elected member of the London assembly who issued
the formal questions to Khan questioning his behaviour over Trump, said
the mayor was exceeding his remit by getting involved in global
politics, when in reality “his job is simply to run London’s transport
network and police, but since he took office he has used his position to
grandstand on international issues as though he were a Head of State.
He is not.”Slamming Khan’s counterproductive stance towards the United States
and President Trump, Kurten told Breitbart London: “Since Donald Trump
became President, London’s Mayor has become increasingly hostile to one
of the best and most Anglophile Presidents there has ever been. Instead
of building a good relationship and welcoming his offer of putting
Britain at the front of the queue for a trade deal, he has snubbed him
with a series of personal insults.“Sadiq Khan’s latest outburst that President Trump is ‘not welcome’
in London is well beyond his pay grade and flies in the face of common
courtesy. It is also hypocritical: he is willing to host the ambassadors
of countries which have a travel ban on Israeli citizens at a reception
at City Hall, but hurls insults at President Trump who has highlighted
the horrors of Islamism and wants to protect his own citizens from
violent jihadis…..

In court filings, reported Vice News, Poe’s lawyers said they approached the Trump administration about their request to remove the stay but hadn’t heard back as of the morning of December 19. “It’s literally a matter of every day counts,” the judge had acknowledged, according to the ACLU’s request.
Roe and Poe are currently being held by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, a program of the Administration for Children and Families, an office within the Department of Health and Human Services. A sponsor has volunteered to take care of Roe, but no one has offered to sponsor Poe.
After Chutkan’s initial ruling on December 18, the Trump administration quickly filed a notice of appeal as well as a request to lengthen the stay in Roe’s case for at least two weeks. While Roe is approximately 10 weeks pregnant, the Trump administration says Poe is 22 weeks pregnant.
Lawyers for the Trump administration wrote, “The government has strong and constitutionally legitimate interests in promoting its interest in life, in refusing to facilitate abortion, and in not providing incentives for pregnant minors to illegally cross the border to obtain elective abortions while in federal custody. Those interests would be irreparably undercut if Ms. Roe was granted the relief she seeks.”
Brigitte Amiri, a senior staff attorney with the ACLU Reproductive Freedom Project, said in a statement: “We are pleased that these two young women are able to finally get the care they need. But the government’s policy is still in place. These two cases show how the government continues to abuse its power by denying abortion access.”
Scott Lloyd, who assumed the position of director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in March, had operated under a new policy put into place by the Trump administration that requires him to sign off on all major medical care. Before taking the position at ORR, Lloyd, who is an attorney, worked for the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic fraternal and charitable organization that plays a leading role in the pro-life movement.
However, the ACLU is not happy with that policy and asserted in a court document that it “grants ORR a veto power over a minor’s abortion decision, erects numerous hurdles to a minor’s ability to obtain unbiased counseling about pregnancy options and prompt pregnancy dating, regardless of whether they will ultimately decide to terminate or carry to term their pregnancy, and imposes significant hurdles.”
In another twist in these cases, reported Vice News, it was revealed during a December 19 court motion that Roe is not 17 years old, as was previously thought, but 19. Since she is legally an adult, lawyers for the administration pointed out, Roe should be in the custody of the Department of Homeland Security — not the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
A December 18 Politico report observed that since the beginning of this legal battle, government lawyers have also argued that the teens are free to return to their home countries or to seek to be released to the custody of a sponsor, but federal officials should not have to take any action to facilitate an abortion. Of course, since Roe was subsequently found to be an adult, only Poe would require a sponsor.
Politico also quoted a spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services, who said:
That statement makes clear that the government is not, as the ACLU asserts, continuing “to abuse its power by denying abortion access.” The Trump administration is wiling to allow minors to return home or seek sponsorship, where in either circumstance they would be able to make abortion decisions free of government interference. The administration objects only to requiring the taxpayers, many of whom object in conscience to abortion, to pay for these procedures.

The usually non-political, ceremonial Queen Elizabeth reflected on
the jihad attacks in London and Manchester this year, without naming
their perpetrators. She stated in her Christmas speech:
This Christmas, I think of London and Manchester, whose
powerful identities shone through over the past twelve months in the
face of appalling attacks
In June 2016, Queen Elizabeth also uncharacteristically commented
about Brexit, stating that courts that protect jihad preachers
“denigrate” Britain. She asked her dinner guests to give her three good
reasons why the UK should remain inside the European Union (EU).
If the jihad problem played a role in the Queen’s support for Brexit,
then there is a problem, as Prime Minister Theresa May is in sync with
most European leaders. May has shown no leadership, as she continues to
fail Brits in her pandering to Muslims. Britain also currently has over
85 Sharia courts operating independently of the British legal system.
“Queen’s Christmas Address Reflects on Horrors of Radical Islamic Terrorism in 2017”, by Raheem Kassam, Breitbart, December 25, 2017:
Her Majesty The Queen has delivered her regular Christmas
address to the United Kingdom and her Commonwealth allies, reflecting
on the radical Islamic terrorism that tore through London and Manchester
this year.Speaking from Buckingham Palace, Her Majesty began by reflecting on
her own past 60 years of delivering speeches to the nation at Christmas,
and the technological advancements she has witnessed since.Pivoting to the terrorist atrocities of this year, Her Majesty said:
We think of our homes as places of warmth, familiarity and love; of
shared stories and memories, which is perhaps why at this time of year
so many return to where they grew up. There is a timeless simplicity to
the pull of home.For many, the idea of “home” reaches beyond a physical building – to a home town or city.
This Christmas, I think of London and Manchester, whose powerful
identities shone through over the past twelve months in the face of
appalling attacks. In Manchester, those targeted included children who
had gone to see their favourite singer. A few days after the bombing, I
had the privilege of meeting some of the young survivors and their
parents.
I describe that hospital visit as a “privilege” because the patients I
met were an example to us all, showing extraordinary bravery and
resilience. Indeed, many of those who survived the attack came together
just days later for a benefit concert. It was a powerful reclaiming of
the ground, and of the city those young people call home.The British Monarch — who has now reigned for 65 years — also made
reference to the Grenfell fire which ripped through a tower block in
West London this year, killing 71 people.Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who died and those who
lost so much; and we are indebted to members of the emergency services
who risked their own lives, this past year, saving others. Many of them,
of course, will not be at home today because they are working, to
protect us.Penultimately, Her Majesty reiterated that her husband Prince Phillip
would be slowing down a bit in terms of public events, as she
approaches her 92nd birthday.Finally, Her Majesty stated of Christmas, and the life of Jesus Christ:
Today we celebrate Christmas, which itself is sometimes described as a
festival of the home. Families travel long distances to be together.
Volunteers and charities, as well as many churches, arrange meals for
the homeless and those who would otherwise be alone on Christmas Day. We
remember the birth of Jesus Christ whose only sanctuary was a stable in
Bethlehem…..
