Architect of U.S. Peace Plan Blames Palestinians for Violence
(AP-New York Times) Presidential adviser Jared Kushner, who spent nearly three years working on the U.S. peace plan, said Thursday that leaders who are ready for a state "don't call for days of rage and encourage their people to pursue violence if they're not getting what they want." He said he thinks Abbas "was surprised with how good the plan was for the Palestinian people, but he locked himself into a position" by rejecting it before it came out. "If they would like to meet, we're happy to do it, but we're not going to chase them," Kushner said.
