landmines and ticking time bombs left behind by Trump and Netanyahu to work with.”
—Daniel Seidemann, an Israeli expert on the geopolitics of Jerusalem, writes about the last-minute attempt by
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, US President Donald Trump, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and U.S.
Ambassador to Israel David Friedman to create irreversible settlement facts on the ground and a “new normal” that
would enshrine a Greater Israel and an exclusively Israeli Jerusalem.*
