Looks like Trumpy is closing down the PLO's HQ in DC.

My question is who authorized it in the first place or why doesn't the IRA and ISIL have a Gov supplied HQ in DC?

The Trump administration is expected to announce Monday that it will close the Palestine Liberation Organization?s office in Washington, administration officials said Sunday night, widening a U.S. campaign of pressure amid stalled Middle East peace efforts.

?The United States will always stand with our friend and ally, Israel,? national security adviser John Bolton is planned to say in prepared remarks he is scheduled to deliver Monday, according a draft reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

?The Trump administration will not keep the office open when the Palestinians refuse to take steps to start direct and meaningful negotiations with Israel,? he is planned to add.

Senior Palestinian officials strongly condemned the Trump administration decision and described it as a ?reckless escalation.?

Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian representative to Washington, said in an interview that the State Department informed the Palestine Liberation Organization of the U.S. decision to shutter its Washington office in a move that he said is part of the Trump administration?s efforts to begin enacting its so-called ?deal of the century.?

Oh and to answer the question.............Barry Hussian Sortero in 2010
