    The White House believes the Palestinians have received a strong dose of reality from the U.S. announcement recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Officials feel Jerusalem will always be Israel's capital and that Palestinians must adjust their hopes to a more realistic position. While regional leaders publicly oppose the decision, the White House claims their private tone is more relaxed, though a source believes the administration is underestimating the anger building in Middle Eastern streets that those leaders will have to address.

    White House feels Palestinians got "a strong dose of reality," source says

    From CNN's Michelle Kosinski

    A top official familiar with the process of the Jerusalem announcement said the White House
    line is: This is the new reality, it’s “no big deal” — that Jerusalem is always going to be the
    Israeli capital.

    The White House feels that the announcement has done its job of giving the Palestinians a strong
    dose of reality, and that the Palestinians need to readjust their hopes to something more realistic,
    the source said.

    The White House is saying that, despite all the strong public opposition from regional leaders,
    the tone communicated in private to the White House is actually much more relaxed.

    But this source believes the administration is greatly underestimating the anger building in the
    streets, in the Middle East — and that those leaders will have to respond to.
