Petah Tikva inaugurates 'Donald Trump Square' in honor of US president's support for Israel

The city of Petah Tikvah in central Israel inaugurated "Donald Trump Square" on Wednesday, a day before US Independence day, in honor of Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

The roundabout near the city's municipal building features a water installation with statuesque structures bearing the Israeli and American flags illuminated by florescent colored lighting.

A placard in both Hebrew and English commemorates Trump as "the first to acknowledge Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel".

Petah Tikvah's "Donald Trump Square" is the latest piece of Israeli real estate to be named in honor of the US president's support for the Jewish State.

Last month, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu inaugurated Ramat Trump (Trump Heights in English) in the Golan Heights after the Trump administration recognized Israeli sovereignty over the disputed area.

The square near the site of the new American embassy in Jerusalem is also to be named in honor of Trump, while Israel's transport minister has said that a new train station near the Western Wall -- Judaism's holiest site -- will soon bear the US president's name.

I'm sure Obama and president Clinton had stuff named after them. And while they were still president. Right?

Well I just checked for Obama.

'Avinguda Barack Obama - In 2008, a street in the town of Nàquera in Valencia, Spain was named in honor of Barack Obama for being "an icon of multiculturalism". The street was formerly named after José Antonio Primo de Rivera, founder of the fascist party Falange and son of Spanish dictator Miguel Primo de Rivera.'

SCRIPTURES ABOUT BLESSING ISRAEL (Source: Christians United for Israel)
http://support.cufi.org/site/PageServer?pagename=Scriptures_About_Blessing_Israel

“I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
- Genesis 12:1-3

For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch.
- Isaiah 62:1

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they that love thee shall prosper. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will say now, peace be within thee. For the sake of the House of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.
– Psalm 122

“I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves no rest, and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.”
– Isaiah 62:6-7

They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings.
- Romans 15:27 (NIV)

It is called projectionism. The left hates God. And God loves the Jewish people. So therefore, they project their hatred of Jews/God onto Trump. It is how they make themselves feel good.

How clever is that?

THis provides cover for Trump's anti-Semitic views.
