The Real Palestinian Response to Trump Announcement

As you read this article, keep in mind that yesterday a Palestinian ambulance was seen carting masked-men to protests around the city.  Yep!  They totally stage these protests for Western media consumption.

CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN all need to get a photo for their story on Trump's Jerusalem announcement.  And since they are run by liberals who have a bend against Israel....they HOPE that their dream of chaos is realized...so they look for photos of "widespread chaos" in which to beam to their consumers.

In reality, there are a few hundred men who dropped their chess game to go burn a Trump photo and a US flag...but they make sure that they wait for the camera crews to be there BEFORE they light the flag.

Again...no wonder Trump is calling out this crap as FAKE NEWS!

A short three hours after US President Donald Trump phoned Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas to inform him of his intention to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, a number of Palestinian photojournalists received a phone call from Bethlehem.

The callers were Palestinian "activists," who invited the photographers to come to the city to document an "important event." When the photographers arrived, they discovered that the "important event" was a handful of Palestinian "activists" who wanted to burn posters of Trump in front of the cameras.

The "activists" waited patiently as the photojournalists and cameramen set up their equipment to get the "important event" on film. Shortly thereafter, the media was abuzz with reports about "angry Palestinian protesters taking to the streets to protest" Trump's intention to move the embassy to Jerusalem and his recognition of the city as the capital of Israel. The handful of Palestinians who were filmed burning the Trump pictures were made to look as if they were part of a mass protest sweeping Palestinian communities.

The incident represents yet another example of the collusion between the Palestinians and the media, whose representatives are always more than happy to serve as mouthpieces for the Palestinian propaganda machine and provide an open platform for broadcasting Palestinian threats against Israel and the US.

Had the photographers and cameramen not shown up to the erstwhile "spontaneous" poster-burning event, the Palestinian activists would have been forced to quietly slink back to one of Bethlehem's fine coffee shops.

Yet, there was no worry on that score: the Palestinian activists are well aware that local and foreign reporters are starving for sensationalism -- and what better fits the bill than posters of Trump going up in flames in the middle of the birthplace of Jesus, on the eve of Christmas and as thousands of Christian pilgrims and tourists are converging on the city?
