U.S. President Trump to unveil his Middle East peace plan amid skepticism

Odds of it taking shape, though, appear long, given the Palestinians' preemptive rejection of the plan and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's shaky political standing.Trump is expected to present the proposal alongside Netanyahu at noon Tuesday. The event comes the day Trump's impeachment trial continues in the Senate and the Israeli parliament had planned a hearing to discuss Netanyahu's request for immunity from criminal corruption charges.

"It's been worked on by everybody, and we'll see whether or not it catches hold. If it does, that would be great, and if it doesn't, we can live with it, too. But I think it might have a chance," Trump said alongside Netanyahu on Monday, when he also hosted Gantz at the White House. Reports in Israeli media have speculated Trump's plan could include the possible annexation of large pieces of territory that the Palestinians seek for a future independent state. American approval could give Netanyahu the type of cover to go ahead with a move that he's resisted taking for more than a decade in power.

The Palestinians seek the West Bank as the heartland of a future independent state and east Jerusalem as their capital. Most of the international community supports their position, but Trump has reversed decades of U.S. foreign policy by siding more blatantly with Israel. The centerpiece of his strategy was recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moving the American Embassy there.

Trump crackdown on birth tourism could mean new waves of passport babies in CanadaAustralia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, France, Germany and South Africa have all altered their citizenship laws to discourage birth tourism, but not Canada. Taking advantage of our Liberal system is not the way it should be! Fine them heavily, like more than a million dollars per baby and all medical expenses not included! The million dollars is going to the agency who advertises and brings this wealthy crew to have their babies here. Also puts them up in birthing houses. Horrible!! Canadian law should prohibit this. And this has nothing to do with racism. Why does every headline have to be so fucking rude nationalInquirer
