Richard Engel: Palestinians Do Not See the U.S. Anymore as a Fair Arbiter of Middle East Peace

EXCERPT:

ENGEL: "And more than 50 people were shot yesterday, according to the Palestinian health ministry and about 2,700 people injured. So this is still an active protest area that the Israelis try to keep people away, and this is just one area like this in the Gaza Strip. Going back to that — sorry, there’s a little teargas coming. Going back to that point you made initially, the Palestinians do not see the U.S. anymore as a fair arbiter of Middle East peace. They don’t think that peace is a reality with President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, especially after the U.S. Embassy move. As far as many people here are concerned, the peace process is dead.”
