Arab citizens have slammed President Trump's Mideast peace plan as “racist” and part of a long-term Israeli strategy to expand its territory while maintaining a Jewish majority.
Many are descended from Palestinians who were left living within the borders of Israel after the country was established in 1948. Many still identify as Palestinian and have family members living in the occupied territories, but they are also deeply tied to parts of Israel they call home.
The proposed Palestinian state by contrast would be demilitarized, give Israel overall security control and Jerusalem would remain an undivided city as the sovereign capital of Israel, allowing for a Palestinian capital in the city’s outskirts beyond the separation barrier. And the proposed map of the future states also suggests that an area in the Negev desert near the Egyptian border that is home to Jewish Israelis could become part of a future Palestine. The numbers of those who would be affected in these areas remain unclear.
“Can you really imagine such areas disconnected from one another and having roads between them?” he added, referring to the Trump administration’s suggestion that"an innovative network” of roads, bridges and tunnels would enable freedom of movement within a future Palestine.
