Fatah-run Awdah TV program Pulse of the Homeland interviews people on the street about the transfer of the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem
Official PA TV host: “A Palestinian blessing of peace to you, our viewers. In the previous episodes of Pulse of the Homeland we spoke about the danger of transferring the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Today we will repeat the question , declaring our complete rejection of the transfer of the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The transfer of the American embassy does not create a danger for the Arabs only, but rather for all Muslims worldwide. Our viewers, we will again present the question to citizens, in order to see their viewpoint.”

Palestinian woman: “This is a new crime, a new Balfour Promise (i.e., Declaration), being carried out by the terror state (i.e., Israel ) - I call it in parentheses the ISIS state - and the US is the country that supports it and caused terror worldwide. We know and everyone knows that the US is the head of the snake and Israel is its spoiled [child ]. A decision like this means that Jerusalem is the capital of the State of Israel, and that of course [will only happen] over the dead bodies of all of the noble Palestinians… This will not pass and will not happen.”

The Balfour Declaration of Nov. 2, 1917 was a letter from British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Baron Rothschild stating that “His Majesty's government views with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people” and is seen as the basis for later international commitments to establish the State of Israel.
