YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIain Dale explained why he thinks President Trump's Middle East Peace Plan is "dead before it's even been proposed."
Today Donald Trump presented his long-awaited peace plan, promising to keep Jerusalem as Israel's "undivided capital." The President said the "realistic" two-state solution is a "win-win opportunity" for both Israel and the Palestinians, however the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has said "a thousand noes" to the proposition.
Iain commented that while it was "a lot more detailed than expected", he felt no sense of optimism for the success of the President's plan after reading reports and listening to analysis from LBC's Washington correspondent Simon Marks.
"I have come to the conclusion sadly that it is probably dead before it's even been proposed because there is very little in it that the Palestinians could actually grab on to and say 'this is worth negotiating'," said Iain.
"I think the question its proponents need to answer is 'what's in it for the Palestinians'," he continued, "because if you're going to come to an agreement, there has to be something in it for both sides."
