Washington's snub to the UN report exposing how Israeli and US companies reap benefits from illegal Jewish settlements reveals its inherent bias toward Palestininans
Whatever little credibility the US claimed to have as an arbiter of the vexed Israel-Palestine dispute, the Trump administration has ripped it apart at the seams through a series of controversial decisions in the past few years.
Although the UN maintained the report would have no legal consequences on the companies involved in the illicit trade on occupied lands, it still infuriated Pompeo, who accused it of being "anti-Israeli". The blatant pro-Zionist policymaking that came from the Trump administration in recent years — from slashing humanitarian aid to Palestinian refugees to unilaterally recognising the city of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital— have further complicated the conflict.
By just agreeing with Israeli claims over Jerusalem, the US totally ignored Palestinians right in east Jerusalem. Most countries say the status of Jerusalem - a sacred city to Jews, Muslims and Christians - should be determined in a final peace settlement and that moving their embassies now would prejudge any such deal. Peace talks aimed a finding a two-state solution to the conflict have been frozen since 2014.Trump’s so-called “deal of the century” proposals has been controversial over the last two years.
The US just offered a $50 billion investment fund for Palestine and other Arab countries in return accepting Israeli sovereignty over disputed lands.
