U.S. Diplomats Harangued by Palestinians in Ramallah
(AFP) Several dozen demonstrators harangued a group of American diplomats in Ramallah Tuesday in protest over U.S. policies towards the Palestinians. The protesters held up placards reading: "We don't want U.S. money," in reference to a decision by Congress to freeze $200 million in aid in response to the Palestinian bid to secure UN membership. The U.S. says a Palestinian state can only emerge through direct negotiations with Israel.
