“The objective was clearly intimidation. The United States absolutely opposes the use of violence and intimidation to express political views,” said a statement from the State Department. This is something new. For decades, the U.S. has given in to intimidation, and allowed the “Palestinians” to dictate the location of the U.S. Embassy by threatening violence if it were moved to Jerusalem. President Trump for the first time has stood up to that intimidation. And now the “Palestinians” are saying that U.S. diplomats aren’t welcome? Fine. We should leave their areas and cut off all the money we’re sending them as well.
“Palestinian Mob Assaults US Convoy in Bethlehem Area,” United with Israel (thanks to RN), May 22, 2018:
An angry crowd of Palestinian protesters on Monday pelted American diplomats with eggs in Beit Jala, on the outskirts of Bethlehem, to protest the recent move of the US Embassy to Jerusalem.
Story continues below advertisementThe incident drew a stern American response and deepened a crisis in relations that has followed the December decision by the US to move its embassy to Israel’s capital. The Palestinian leadership has since been boycotting Washington.
The State Department said the diplomats were on a visit to “promote educational and cultural exchange” in the area when they came under attack.
“The objective was clearly intimidation. The United States absolutely opposes the use of violence and intimidation to express political views,” the statement said.
The protesters gathered as members of the delegation from the US Consulate in Jerusalem walked to their vehicle. The crowd held signs and shouted at the Americans before throwing eggs at their car as they drove away. No one was injured.
“We are here to say to the American Embassy, ‘No we don’t need you. Leave Palestine and leave Jerusalem and leave the embassy,’” said Palestinian protester Muhannad al-Said.
This comes just one week after the US Embassy to Israel was moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem….

Agree. Trump was conned by Abbas initially but when he found out the truth boy was he mad as hell at the jihadi http://bit.ly/2rOmfyJ
That’s when he decided enough is enough and that inspite of huge opposition led to shifting of Embassy to Jerusalem and No more funding to the jihadis.

Can someone remind me why we are giving ANY money to Palestinian “refugees”? I know we cut back but made allowances for children – vaccines- and stuff like that. ALL aid must stop there.

When you clear out a wasp’s nest why leave the larva behind? Cut off all aid completely. Their kids are just the next generation of terrorists, the cycle of hate/violence must end, either by war or by rescinding our support of these bloodthirsty murderous psychotic savages.
I don’t espouse any cruelty or suffering for anyone but these people are our enemies, not friends so they should not be helped in any way, we should hasten their demise.

They spend that western charity money by paying any locals to spread the intifada. They pay handsomely for the murder of a Jew and even more for the murder of a Jewish soldier. And where does this payment for murder originate? Our governments charity with our hard earned tax, Us!

Palestinians are so stupid, good job at biting the hand that feeds you. This is exactly the way you behave when you want to turn your allies into enemies. So now Trump will hear about it and will realize that Palestinians deserve no support from the US and he’ll fully support Israel’s side. I’m sure Bibi is laughing at the Arab’s idiocy, I would be too.

Well, well. If they don’t need us, then they don’t need our money either. Cut it all off. There is no reason to send this hateful bunch so much as a single penny.

It would have been more symbolic if the protesters stated they were throwing cage-free eggs. Otherwise, it had no meaning.

Snince the entire Gaza Strip is a zionist constructed cage, it would hard to find a cage free chicken. Some have called Gaza the world’s largest concentration camp.

All I can say to the fakestinians is,,”So US is not welcome.. that’s cool. Oh BTW all that money we gave you as aid, it was actually loans and we want you to start REPAYING US NOW.. And seeing as how we are not welcome, then our money won’t be either..”

muslims should be banned from Israel altogether. The threat they cause is not worth they’re continued presence. History tells us that we have to be tough with muslims otherwise they see it as a weakness and take any advantage.
Push them back to the Arabian peninsula.

Things are improving under Trump. The last time a state dept “cultural exchange” group was attacked, it was with IEDs that caused death. Time to stop the charade. We don’t need palestinians in our universities on scholarships bringing their cult of death with them.

Why didn’t security return fire with ham? Ham and eggs make a good breakfast – except to the muslims.
