Settler mayor, evangelical leader pen op-ed calling on Trump to avoid land-for-peace deal

Samaria Regional Council chairman Yossi Dagan and prominent evangelical lobbyist Tony Perkins pen an op-ed warning US President Donald Trump against pursuing a land-for-peace formula as his administration prepares to introduce its “deal of the century.”

“The Trump administration should stay the course, continuing to avoid the ‘land-for-peace’ proposals, and the policies that have prevented Israelis from building in Judea and Samaria, which have repeatedly failed to work,” Dagan and Perkins write in a Washington Times op-ed.

“In the intractable conflict rooted in the land God gave to the people of Israel, the best approach would be to seek God’s solutions in God’s timing,” they add.
