How Thatcher Would Have Crushed Hateful Pro-Palestinian Protesters in UK

Kushner should know. As a top White House aide as well as son-in-law to then-President Donald Trump, Kushner was instrumental in achieving the Abraham Accords, which normalized relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and between Israel and Bahrain.
