![]() « Miss Iraq & Miss Israel | Main | UN General Assembly Votes » Abbas Visits Saudi King
By Micah Halpern
Wednesday December 20, 2017 I've Been Thinking: Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas traveled to Saudi Arabia to meet with the King and the Crown Prince. Abbas was summoned by the Saudis to discuss President Trump's Jerusalem announcement. There is no way to know what went on in the meeting. But it is safe to say that the Saudis were there to give support and guidance. Most importantly, the Saudis probably spoke of their own proposal - the one which discusses Jerusalem. The Saudi proposal suggests that Abu Dis, a village next to Jerusalem, become the capital of the Palestinian State. Abu Dis is in Area B which is under Palestinian political control and Israeli military control. It is both in Jerusalem and not in Jerusalem at the same time. It is in Abu Dis that Arafat began building his parliament building. The Saudis are going to give Abbas the coverage and protection he needs to start accepting these proposals and so as not to lose face with his own people back home in the West Bank.
