December 3, 2015: GOP Presidential candidate and front-runner Donald Trump was one of several Presidential candidates to speak at the 2015 Republican Jewish Coalition's Presidential Forum.
It got a little awkward there for a minute when he started taking questions and someone asked about his feelings on Jerusalem being the undisputed capital of Israel. He didn't exactly answer the quarstion...

And since Trump announced this on Wednesday night, his plans to go to Israel and visit with Bibi, longer ago than that, nobody should even try to say that this is just some silly CYA on Trump's part. Also, he has been friends with Bibi for many years.
Yeah, chill out dude. Take a deep breath. Turn the computer off and do something else tonight. You don’t need to be banned. You are just getting too wrapped up into this. Take a break.
Just stay of Trump threads and do NOT post about him on any other thread...EVER !
Bibi actually asked him to cut a video ad in 2003 for the Israeli elections for him.
You can watch it here. Bibi and Donald Trump are friends and have been for many years.

Sadly, the stupid anti-Trumpers know almost NOTHING factual about him.All they know is how to lie, insult, impugn, and make themselves look like the fools they are.
You nailed it.
The conservative purists are self-defeatingly constipated.
What is an ethnolator?
That 78% just surged to 79%! Trump is finished /S
Chicago also had a couple of fabulous Pastrami on rye deli’s. None here north of Seattle. I also miss the fabulous Chicago pizza, much imitated but never duplicated.
Muslims and Jews in America both vote 80% liberal and democrat. Why should they matter to any conservative?
Did you watch the video?
“American conservatives seem to be becoming more like the relativistic ethnolators of the European right. “
There are a lot of problems with many of those who call themselves “conservatives” in America today, but this is not one of those problems.
But your sign on date is 8-20-2009. My math may be off...but that's a bit less than 11 years.
I noticed. I donate to Cruz, however I’m choosing Trump. It seems like they are trying to destroy both Trump and Cruz. Dispicable.
I agree. They don’t mind lying a bit either. Doesn’t meet FR standards IMO.
I’m not as favorable to Cruz as a lot of people are.
I have supported him for V.P., but to be honest his supporters here have pretty much soured me on him at this point.
LOL - funny way to put it - but 'yes' that's it.
Like the Blacks and to a lesser extent the Hispanics the Jews have marginalized themselves by clinging to Democrats. The problem Jews have in a Trump nomination is that it was always their money rather than their numbers that they brought to the table. Now they are faced with a candidate most unfortunately see as an enemy and their money is useless. Trump doesn’t need their money and Jews are packed into places that don’t need their votes.
“...he wants a deal that both sides walk away from happy...”
Trump, living in NYC, should be well aware that is impossible.
Israel has sacrificed & conceded on agreements in past negotiations because they knew that no matter what they agreed to within reason, the pali’s would not accept it. The only “deal” the muzzies will accept is a deal that results in either an erased Israel or an Israel so weakened they can be beaten by those bumbling pali fighters.
Trump should know the Pali’s will not negotiate in good faith and he should come out and accuse them accordingly. Then he should affirm his commitment to stand by and support Israel to the fullest extent possible and encourage the pali’s to stop electing terrorist leadership or suffer righteous retribution as a consequence. He should also call out the UN on the issue while he is at it. Bonus: He should proclaim that he is not going to “leave Israel to fend for themselves” like Clinton and Sanders would.
He would immediately gain the votes of all Israel supporters in that instant.
Instead, Trump is “mealy-mouthing” his answer trying to ride a fence (a fence propped up only by leftists and antisemites) indicates he is ignorant about the situation and isn’t currently competent enough to comment on it with confidence. That is what it looked like to me. Opinions may vary.
That's a very false statistic.
According to press reports, Israel’s Arab Muslim population is growing at a rate almost double the annual growth of the Jewish population.
Israel’s population is currently about 75 percent Jewish, with the remaining 25 percent most Arab Muslims (with some Arab Christians and Druze). [These percentages of course exclude the millions of Palestinians living in Gaza and West Bank]
Dr. Wahid Abd Al-Magid, editor of Al-Ahram’s Arab Strategic Report, has predicted that Arabs may become a majority in Israel in 2035, and “will certainly be the majority in 2048.
