BBC News: Reports " The US has shifted its position on Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, no longer viewing them as inconsistent with international law. "
Lets Get Real:
This is a smart move by POTUS, he faces two battles, the impeachment process in the House and then next year a fight for a 2nd term as President. There are lot of older Jewish voters who have moved to Florida to retire, thus Trump is appealing to them, he will argue that he is a great supporter of Israel compared to President Obama and thus they should vote for him. As long as Trump keeps his base then the Senate will not remove him, thus the while impeachment show is going on it means nothing, next year is the most important. The news networks in the US are spending time on impeachment while not understanding the US voter or caring that much, the Trump Ukraine scandal is no Watergate or Monica Lewinsky, the impeachment process is porn for Liberals and CNN watchers.
