"Beyond just Palestinians, many in the international community are deeply alarmed by the Trump/Kushner plan. As a precedent, it threatens to do away with the international legal system as we know it, including the idea that countries should not be allowed to acquire territory by force, replacing it with a system in which "might is right." The dangers beyond Palestine/Israel are obvious, including legitimizing Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea."

Palestinian-American Sam Bahour on "Trump's Ordeal of the Century" regarding Israeli/U.S. Occupied Palestine
NO JUSTICE = NO PEACE
The American Human Rights Council (AHRC-USA) expresses its serious concerns regarding the so-called “Deal of the Century,” a false hope to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict.This effort to impose a surrender on the Palestinians is a betrayal of international law, justice and American values.
