The Russians have played chess in Jerusalem before. The USSR was first to recognize the new Jewish state of Israel in 1948.

Stalin assumed that a state made up of “rootless cosmopolitans” i.e., Jews, was socialist by nature and would cause Western powers no end of trouble in the region.

He was proved wrong, of course.

Russia’s unexpected announcement recognizing Israel’s eternal capital of Jerusalem, a dramatic decision that places Vladimir Putin against Donald Trump

Say what? Trump's agenda includes recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital. At least that is what he said on the campaign trail. I believe Putin is aligned with Trump on this issue.

Gee, could there possibly be something behind all this that Trump isn’t willing to share with us? Ya think? This isn’t Obama giving the enemy 3 days notice or drawing a red line. Give the man a break. Unless maybe YOU can do better? Geeze.

They’re using your tax dollars to move the Russian Embassy to Jerusalem?

>>Trump is too busy acting as the air force for ISIS.<<

Might have something to do with images of lil kid's lifeless bodies being flopped around after that evil SOB Assad gassed them. Good heavens man.

Ya know Marv...many of the six million Jews the Nazi's murdered might still be alive if the U.S. would have acted sooner.

So, we just went through eight painful years under Obama’s bowing to the world, his nauseating appeasement.

New sheriff in town fella.

The title is a bit misleading. Russia recognized EAST Jerusalem as Israel's capitol ...

Clinton, Bush, Obama and Trump all committed to moving our embassy to Jerusalem WHILE THEY WERE RUNNING.

“Trump is too busy acting as the air force for ISIS”

This is a tough call for us. Which side do we believe, Deep State, who will always blame Assad, or Assad, who (obviously) denies it.

If Assad did it, the timing was VERY CONVENIENT for Deep State, as Trump was moving to simply disengage there, something which Deep State did not agree with, since that means that the terrorists lose.

But then why would Assad do it, considering that he’s winning the war anyway?

My feeling is that the motives and timing point to Deep State, so given that, it does appear that we are the air force for ISIS - and thank you Jared.

I don’t hear you complaining about your “tax dollars” when the US sends hundreds of millions to the PLO.

In the past 30 years, nearly 2.7 million Russians of Jewish decent moved to Israel.
