It was tasked with finding incriminating information that would
impeach the credibility of both Ben Rhodes and Colin Kahl, two key

| Saudi Crown Prince tells Palestinians to accept Trump proposals `or shut up` | | Maan - American Jewish leaders, who last month held a meeting behind
closed doors with Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman,
were reportedly “staggered” by MBS’ harsh criticism of “It is about
time the Palestinians take [Trump]`s proposals and agree to come to
the table, or shut up and stop complaining.” The Crown Prince added
“The Palestinian issue is not at the top of the Saudi government’s
agenda… There are much more urgent and more important issues to deal
with — such as Iran.” With regard to Iran, the Saudis` most
important ally is PM Netanyahu of Israel. In order to bring this de-
facto alliance into the open, the Saudis need at least the semblance
of an advance on the Palestinian issue. "“There needs to be
significant progress toward an agreement with the Palestinians
begore it will be possible to advance negotiations between Saudi
Arabia and the Arab world and Israel.” However, far from providing
the Saudis with such a fig-leaf, Palestinian Authority leader
Mahmoud Abbas declared that the U.S. was no longer an “honest
broker” in the peace talks between the two nations, following
Trump’s announcement recognizing Jerusalem as the capital
of Israel, as well as the relocation of its embassy from Tel Aviv to
Jerusalem. [ak] | 1/5/2018 |

In 2012, the [moderately-left-wing] Vara broadcaster already faced allegations of spreading “blood libels” when it aired a parody of a speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu which had been manipulated to have him say in a seamless and realistic-looking speech: “We are trying to maximize the number of civilian casualties. (...) We are conducting these surgical operations against schools, mosques, hospitals, children. This is something I don’t have to explain to Americans.” [bz] | 22/5/2018 |
