Jared Kushner Reveals In Upcoming Book That Donald Trump Prevented Israel From Annexing Judea And Samaria To Protect Palestinian State Peace Plan

August 3, 2022 admin News 0

The Trump administration threatened not to block international sanctions on Israel if former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu unilaterally annexed parts of the West Bank, former White House senior advisor Jared Kushner wrote in his tell-all book set to be published later this month.

Back in April of 2020, we wrote an exciting article outlining how Benjamin Netanyahu, having just formed a unity government in Israel, was going to annex both Judea and Samaria in July of that year. The West Bank and the Gaza Strip currently occupied by the Palestinians are the biblical lands of Judea and Samaria which belong to the Jews. Anyway, it was very exciting to see that about to happen when, all of a sudden, it fizzled out like a dud bottle rocket, and never happened. We were all left scratching our heads wondering what happened. Well, now we know what happened, Donald Trump stopped it. Wanna guess why? You won’t like the answer.

“For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.” Joel 3:1,2 (KJB)

We told you back in 2015 that, in our opinion, God was going to install Donald Trump as president of the United States to fulfill Bible prophecy, and that certainly did happen, just not in the way you think it did. Trump moved the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, symbolic but exciting. Trump declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel, also exciting but ultimately symbolic. Trump signed off on the Abraham Accords, now you’ve got something. But notice the timing! Trump stopped Israel from reclaiming Judea and Samaria just months before launching the Abraham Accords, a ‘peace covenant’ that leads you directly to Daniel 9:27 (KJB). So instead of supporting Israel to reclaim their land, Trump devised a plan that has it taken away from them and creates a Palestinian state. Don’t get mad at me, this is what Jared Kushner is going to reveal in his upcoming tell-all book. Very revealing indeed, I’d say.

Kushner: Trump admin threatened to allow sanctions if Israel annexed parts of West Bank

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: “With annexation, Bibi risked near-unanimous condemnation at the United Nations,” Kushner wrote of the efforts to convince Netanyahu to make concessions to the Palestinians along with extending sovereignty. “And if he went forward unilaterally, there was no guarantee that our administration would block the international sanctions against Israel that might follow.”

In June 2020, four months after the Trump administration presented its “Vision for Peace” between Israel and with the Palestinians, American and Israeli teams had prepared a detailed map of where Israel would extend its sovereignty in Judea and Samaria. Then-ambassador to Israel David Friedman sought former president Donald Trump’s approval to proceed, while Kushner felt that Netanyahu was not prepared to make sufficient concessions.

Kushner recounted that in 2017, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas “assured me that if I could get a map out of Israel ‘we will be flexible and everything else will be easy.’” However, Kushner did not think the map alone was enough, and said the administration was “struggling to convince Bibi [Netanyahu], a master negotiator, to agree to a compromise that would give tangible life improvements to the Palestinians.”

In Friedman’s memoir Sledgehammer, released earlier this year, he said that he thought Netanyahu agreeing to a four-year period in which Israel refrain from any construction outside of the zones detailed on the map “was the essential peace to the puzzle.” Kushner did not mention that arrangement in the excerpt provided to The Jerusalem Post.

“I told Friedman that I wasn’t going to bring the annexation issue to the president unless we had a fair proposal that advanced our peace plan,” Kushner wrote.

Friedman and Kushner met with Trump, and the ambassador asked the president if he was ready to support annexation. Trump said he had done plenty for Israel and had other priorities, but was willing to hear the opinions of the others in the room. Kushner said, “I thought we could do it in a way that minimized backlash from the Arab world, but we had to ensure that the Israelis made concessions to materially improve the lives of the Palestinian people.”

At the end of the meeting, Trump told then-secretary of state Mike Pompeo to “do what you think is best.” Pompeo and Friedman wanted to move forward and while Kushner felt “inner turmoil about the implications,” they decided to move forward with annexation.

Friedman and then-special representative for international negotiations Avi Berkowitz told Netanyahu on June 25 that Israel could only annex areas with existing settlements, and in exchange, Palestinians would have greater civil control over some areas in which they lived. Two days later, Netanyahu refused.

“Our message resonated: Bibi wasn’t getting annexation for free. Israel needed to give something in return,” Kushner wrote. Trump would likely publicly speak out against annexation if Netanyahu did not compromise. That was when Friedman made clear that Netanyahu was “hanging on a thread by Trump,” and “there was no guarantee that our administration would block the international sanctions against Israel that might follow” unilateral annexation, Kushner said.
