    While I do feel Israel houses Jews who are not legit descendants of the Israelite, given the US gives the nation billions and blindly defends them, it seems silly not to recognize Jerusalem.

    I know Israel needs to stop being the one supplying them with water and electricity.

    Let the arabs deal with them.

    Gaza or Sinai?

    The coastal acquifer is under Gaza.. Israel steals most of that water.

    Well then help stop the Israeli water stealing spree. We all know arabs make better use of water.

    Relocate somewhere on the sinai. Empty out the west bank and gaza.

    Since the Palestinians never could play nice with their neighbors (any of them) let them hang out well away from other nations borders.

    Trump and Melania should say the Lords prayer and then declare the move on the nightly news.

    It will trigger a lefty or two.

    The embrace of theology by this administration, and the fake, warmongering moves like recognizing the capitol of a genocidal, unethical, illicit state like Israel, should trigger everyone in this country.

    Israel is a rogue state.

    Actually the Sinai does belong to Egypt and they prefer to keep it

    BO the peep didn't have to ponder long.


    While the absence of any U.S. representation in Jerusalem for Israel is common knowledge, it is less well known that the United States does maintain a diplomatic facility in Jerusalem to represent Washington to another claimant: the Palestinian Authority. As the official website of the U.S. consulate general in Jerusalem states, since the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993, it “has served as the de facto representative of the United States government to the Palestinian Authority.”

    The result is that Washington lacks any formal presence in the capital of its main democratic ally in the Middle East but does maintain a diplomatic presence in that ally’s capital for another political entity that claims territory within that city. It is incorrect, therefore, to say that U.S. policy has maintained steadfast neutrality on the question of Jerusalem so that it can protect is position as an “honest broker.” As odd as it sounds, actual U.S. policy does tilt toward one side — the Palestinians.....snip~

    Yes, the original travel advisory for Egypt issued July 19 2017 is still in effect. The US Consulate-General in Jerusalem issued an urgent warning yesterday for US citizens traveling in the area. This is due to expected Palestinian demonstrations et. Interesting in that the US Department of State website has not updated their advisory on Israel, Gaza and the West Bank since April 11 2017. I wonder if the main site is behind due to staff cuts?

    If there are demonstrations etc. in various countries I would expect updates to be issued however, it wouldn't look good for Trump if travel safety conditions in a big chunk of the world would have to be updated just because of a dumb decision by him - so who knows if updates will be issued. Unfortunately the adults (Tillerson, Mattice and others) couldn't talk him out of this madness....

    They were never there first and they can't lay claim to that land. You and your ilk needs to hit the history book instead of performing revisionist history gymnastics.

    He should learn how to stutter and utter then because he sounds like a moron otherwise.

    Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

    Maybe he should, then like BO peep he could trick out the leftness a whole lot easier. As then it wont matter what he says. But how he says it.

    Oh and when finishing he needs to do just like BO.....throw out a chessy smile.

    No it does not take much. Trump should say the Lords prayer while wearing a maga yamika. :)

    tRUmp needs the smoke, maybe even a self created crisis false flag to distract the country to "unite" behind him to save his treasonous skin. Chaos is a ladder.......:)

    I guess Trump's daughter - who he clearly desires in a very disgusting way - must have made a deal with him. If Trump would do what her Jewish husband wants and move the Israeli capital to Jerusalem, in return, she would sit on his lap more often in that REALLY creepy way he likes SOOO much.

    Jeez...he is not only a stupid, self-centered, con artist, trust-fund manchild...he is also disgusting.

    No wonder he is so big on Roy Moore getting elected.

    What a ****ing retarded claim given that Obama was President for 8 years and had that authority and never did anything remotely close.
