It was a day of fun rest in many parts of israel thousands of palestinians took to the streets to protest against u. S. President Donald Trumps decision to officially recognize jerusalem as israels capital. And in many parts of the country protesters clashed with security forces. Israel is preparing for more violence in the coming days and is deploying additional troops to the west bank but many fear that the situation could escalate as the Islamic Militant group hamas its followers to start an uprising a first intifada against israel. We demand resistance in the west bank so we can answer this shameless aggression and i repeat shameless aggression the american decision as an act of aggression against our people a declination of war against the Palestinian People and the holiest sites of islam and christianity. Israels Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu in contrast while trumps announcement as a historic landmark and said of the countries were considering following the u. S. Lead. We are already in contact with other countries which will issue is a meal of recognition i have no doubt that the moment the American Embassy moves to jerusalem and even before then there will be a movement of many embassies to jerusalem the time has come. Your. But the u. S. Decision also prompted to brought a diplomatic backlash Turkey Russia and the European Union condemned the move saying that recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel and hopes of resolving the conflict peacefully and that its divided the International Community the u. N. Security council has an emergency meeting about the matter. Declared friday a day of rage and many fear that the conflict about jerusalem could spark a new bloody wall in the region. Are and we can get reaction now from. She joins us now shes a palestinian lawmaker and a member of the palestinian liberation organizations executive committee she is in ramallah mr showing a very good evening you were an op ed for the New York Times today where you call trumps decision a huge mistake why. Us its a huge mistake because hes not on the undermining the trances of destroying the very foundations of peace is destroying america and what situation when it is justice by finding such appalling clues and will become complicit in the crime is also inflaming the public of the will provoke a will people out the region and beyond and we had supporting extremists and this certainly will have its our relentless extremism and violence. Leon and of course by giving an example of violating International Law and you know what the. Restrictions Work Together but. Arab countries that have predictably reacted in horror to this decision but the size the usual condemnations theyre not suggesting any solutions do you feel that a palestinian still at the arab world has given up on the palestinians at this stage. When we tried very hard that many arab leaders call donald trump and straighten up. And they all know that this is going to affect them and the fact that into this summer i could standing of course and influence in the early but it seems easy was hell bent on doing a. Good chunk of his closest allies in the region he also gender. They were own people so everybody has taken a position against donald Trump Initiative which in itself is a good way of sponsibility. In that sense its not arabs selling and the fact that the u. S. Now has exposed. As being in full support of the occupation and of the most extreme right wing hard line israeli government. An emotional we palestinian lawmaker and a member of the palestinian liberation organizations executive committee thank you all right and we can go now to do the very own my ass waiter she is in jerusalem for us a she joins me on the line right now maya when we talk about jerusalem we talk as if its a united a city described as the facts on the ground whats the demographic reality of jerusalem. The curious moment is a very old city that despite everyone talking about it being divisible between east and west actually very hard to divide theres no river or a barrier a clear road between east and west in terms demographic theres about eight hundred fifty thousand people who live here are around three hundred thousand of whom are palestinian residents of East Jerusalem and that is an official legal status they hold a resident in East Jerusalem which means theyre not Israeli Citizens and they cannot vote in the knesset elections the elections for the Israeli Congress so theres quite a presence and theres quite a community here mostly in East Jerusalem and today we saw many of them especially the youth of the community out in front of the damascus gate at the old city and shouting protesting that jerusalem is the arab jerusalem is palestinian and that they are very much opposed to shall we say to that read the declaration from President Trump and maya what do you very sorry for interrupting there what youre hearing about the situation the Current Situation in the palestinian territories are have people been reacting. Right so weve heard about these these clashes happening in bethlehem and around the territories and we know that police and the i. D. F. Are gearing up for possibly more violence clashes incidents happening tomorrow because it is friday so friday prayers will be happening today in jerusalem if things were fairly calm but tense and we still have a heavier than normal Police Presence out on the streets there are some police on horseback who have been writing back and forth in front of me and my colleague just sort of intimidating the people in this neighborhood its its been a tense day theres been some clashes some scuffles some people arrested one person was injured in front of me not a good situation and likely to depreciate in the next day or so my whole or the people of israel how do they feel about all of this. Its its a good question so there are certainly some israelis who feel that it is time that jerusalem has always been their capital always will be their capital and theres no denying that and that trump declaration is simply an acknowledgment of the fact that there are many israelis who have very mixed feelings about this you know they recognize that this is a sticky situation its a tough negotiating position because jerusalem is such a important city for people of all fades you know particularly the palestinians and the israelis who live in this region and so it really just sort of throws a whole wrench into the entire Peace Process and as we have seen here today with things being tense and slightly chaotic that. It doesnt it doesnt help the situation doesnt make things better last winter reporting from jerusalem thank you. Well meantime german just ongoing americal spoke out this evening about President Trumps decision to recognize from some as israels capital reiterating her opposition to them. In this instance we will act according to the un resolutions which state that during the negotiations towards a two state solution the status of jerusalem must also be negotiated this is why we desire the renewal of this process and are not in agreement with the decision made last night.
