Hazim Qassem, Hamas’ Spokesperson, said in a press release that Mike Popmeo’s announcement to allow US citizens born in occupied Al-Quds to write ‘Israel’ on their passports after it was only ‘Al-Quds’ without Palestine nor ‘Israel’ shows how persistent Washington is to implement the Deal of the Century. The US encourages normalization, and represents historical falsification and reality manipulation. This also indicates how careless the US Administration is when it comes to the Arab official structure. Politico Website pointed that the US Ambassador to the occupation’s entity, David Friedman, was among the most excited to go forward with this decision.
