    No Quid Pro Quo? Trump Cancels Palestine Security Funding

    No Quid Pro Quo? Trump Cancels Palestine Security Funding



    President Trump's State Department has for the first time cancelled US funding for Palestinian security forces who cooperate with their Israeli counterparts to reduce violence in the West Bank. As Israel appears poised to annex the West Bank, is this a pre-text for that action? Is there a quid pro quo for Trump in suspending this aid that no one wants to talk about?

    Palestine doesn't even exist so of course we shouldn't be funding something that doesn't exist
