    Israel was losing faith in our committment to democracy/freedom under Obama ("Mr. Sharia appologizer"). Trump, on the other hand thinks that "Islam HATES us":

    Mohammad's teaching of hatred towards "the other" is a huge part of the underlying hatred that exists in the Middle East. The Jewish texts also teach hatred towards "the other", as well. Religion needs to take some of the blame, for sure.

    Trump says Jerusalem is the capital of Israel? What's next? Tokyo the capital of Japan? Paris the capital of France?

    Stop the madness!

    Typical Republican bullshit.

    We saw far too much of it in the run up to the disastrous Iraq war. Anyone who recognized the folly of that disaster as it unfolded was called a terrorist.

    Good job of keeping up THAT Republican tradition

    He can't choose another country's capital. What he can do and did was to move the U.S. Embassy form Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and he doesn't need any regional support to do it.

    The Arab Spring that destabilized the Middle East and allowed the formation of even more terrorist groups.
    In the past six years, the United States has added 21 names to its list of foreign terrorist organizations: all but one of them radical Muslim groups. That’s more than the previous 10 years combined.
    At the same time, the number of terrorist acts has shattered previous records. Experts predict data for 2014, which is still being compiled, will likely reflect more than 15,000 terrorist attacks: a vast increase over 2013—which was already the deadliest year for global terrorism since data was first collected in 1970.

    The Institute for Economics and Peace reported 10,000 terrorist incidents killed 18,000 people in 2013. Nine countries were added to the list of nations where more than 50 lives were lost to terrorist attacks in a single year.

    The Arab Spring devolved into the Terrorist Winter. Thanks Obama. Thanks Hillary.

    This move is a brilliant strategy on Trumps part
    1. The American/Israeli pact is strengthened -
    2. The Patestinian Authority and associated groups lose big time as they lose credibility, support and money for being a terrorist state
    3. The regional ambitions of Iran, Turkey and Syria and their client states have been dealt a serious blow as, via this move, the US will now be involved much more heavily in the security of Israel
    4. The silence from Egypt and Saudi Arabia is deafening as their regional ambitions are solidified with the US as partner supplying them with military and other means of support.

    What's not mentioned in all of this:
    1. The prelude in Saudi Arabia where a house cleaning has taken place sidelining the wahabists and Islamic hardliners and solidifying the Crown Princes political position as the man in charge. All the Saudi money going to terrorist organizations and rogue states is going away.
    2. The mid-east relationship between the US and Russia where common self interests take precedence. The US and Russia communicate before they make any regional military moves.
    3. The 4th item in the Trump Foreign Policy, "mess with the US and the US will mess with you" proves Trumps willingness to penalize those states that go out of their way to mess with the USA. The Jerusalem move does all of that and more.

    Why would any adult indulge in magical thinking? Neither Obama nor the US had any control over the Arab street or the Arab Spring.

    To claim they did is irrational.

    How so they won't die any worse or in any greater numbers. We may even derive the sort of cathartic event out of this that needs to happen if we are ever going to achieve any sort of lasting peace. in the ME.

    That is not far from the truth. In fact it is the truth.

    Here is what we have. We have a President, contrary to rational behavior, contrary to the position of every other nation on the planet, and contrary to just plain common sense, who has decided to take a unilateral position on Middle East peace thus depriving our nation of a role in the peace process.

    He did this to satisfy his fire-breathing evangelical base and to fulfill a campaign promise that never should have been made, a campaign promise bought and paid for by the Jewish lobby.

    Don't get me wrong. All my life I have been a strong supporter of the Jewish state. That is why Trump's decision is so wrong. The Jewish state will never be secure until there is peace in the Middle East. Trump did not do Israel any favors. He endangered the Jewish state.

    Trump did not make this decision for Israel. Trump made this decision for Trump. He accomplished two things. One, he satisfied his base. Two, he drew attention away from Mueller and the Russian probe. He is willing to sacrifice the lives and well-being of others to provide temporary relief from Mueller's investigation.

    Minutes ago, Palestinian activists reported heavy clashes were taking place between the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and locals inside the West Bank cities of Ramallah and Bethleham.

    Several demonstrations are currently taking place across Palestine and the Middle East, today, in response to Donald Trump’s announcement that his country will recognize Jerusalem as the Israeli capital.

    Trump's actions are beneath contempt.

    Sidelining the Wahhabis in KSA began in 2000. .. It helps to know something about the subject. Trump is incredibly ignorant.
