....Abbas announced he is ready to be Trump's partner in securing peace in the Middle East through establishment of a Palestinian state on land captured by Israel in 1967. Standing with Trump after their talk in Abbas' presidential residence, Abbas said that Palestinians "are committed to working with you to reach a historic peace deal between us and Israel.".....

He is just doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.

Actually @AbaraXas the President is doing things quite differently.  He is turning the peace initiative into a regional issue--and removing it as a global/UN issue.  I'm starting to think you really missed all the reports and meetings during the President's visit in Saudi Arabia. 

Pity. :shrug:
