Palestinian Leaders Boycott Mike Pence’s Visit to Israel -Sam Blumberg

Palestinian leaders are boycotting Vice President Mike Pence’s visit to Israel. They are refusing to meet with him in protest of the Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and its plans to move the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Pence has already met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and is going to speak to the Israeli parliament today. Arab members of Israel’s parliament are planning to boycott Pence’s address.
