President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, appealed Tuesday for the Palestinians to consider a $50 billion economic support plan, even though they already rejected the proposal because it does not include a political resolution to the long-running conflict with the Israelis

Kushner will present the economic portion of his Mideast peace plan on June 25 in Bahrain, with some key players missing.
"My direct message to the Palestinians is that despite what those who have let you down in the past have told you, President Trump and America has not given up on you," Kushner said."This workshop is for you, and if this is executed correctly, it will lead to a better future for the Palestinian people: a future of dignity, prosperity and opportunity."
Kushner acknowledged that a political solution is key to the success of the economic proposal. He said it was more important to first set out what is economically possible. "Palestine is not for sale!" protesters chanted."From Bahrain to Saudi Arabia, we are not tempted by your millions!" "How can the President of the highest governing body of football, and the most outspoken person on the importance of separating politics from sports, agree to participate in a political workshop whose objective is to determine the future of Palestine in the absence of Palestinians?" the letter said.
