German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel on Tuesday warned the US about the dangers of moving the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

“Recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel does not calm a conflict; rather, it fuels it even more,” Gabriel said. “It’s in everyone’s interest that this does not happen.”

Despite widespread international opposition to the move, Trump is expected to recognize the city as Israel’s capital on Wednesday. A senior administration official speaking on the condition of anonymity told AFP news agency that the president would make the announcement during a speech slated for 1 p.m. local time (1800 UTC). But Trump will reportedly also sign a legal waiver that would delay moving the embassy by another six months. […]

In Europe, the US proposal has been met with skepticism and warnings. French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday that he reminded Trump that the status of Jerusalem should be determined during negotiations for a two-state solution.

After meeting with US State Secretary Rex Tillerson on Tuesday, Federica Mogherini, the EU’s top diplomat, said any action that risked undermining efforts to restart peace talks “must absolutely be avoided.” …

This reminds me of when the world kept telling President Reagan not to put those missiles in Europe. We know how that turned out.

Yep. Let’s not forget the Father of Terrorism, Arafat, for his contribution to the conflict, may he twist in torment forever.

For the most part, the media laps up and continues to drive the narrative against Israel at every opportunity.
I’m sure the usual suspects in the media are all anxiously awaiting President Jimmy Peanut to weigh on on the issue.

I wonder how many people remember that Nasser was a national socialist, as well? Not to mention, the Ba’ath Party also combines nationalism and socialism. This of course is not by accident.

Exacyly. I figure the percentages of Nazis and non- nazis remains about the same. Only now the Nazis are in power “behind the scenes” like at the EU

Utterly shameful. I guess antisemitic Germany isn't through wanting to throw the remaining Jews left on earth into the ovens.

It is so telling that those in power in Germany love Muslims who are habitually raping their women and boys and butchering their citizens more than the remaining Jews in Germany who have, and continue to positively contribute so much to the fabric of their society.

It’s time the US and Israel stop being held hostage to Islamic street rage.

Do it and keep order.

Exert only as much force is necessary, but keep order nevertheless.

If nations want war over it, oblige them.

Wow. Germany is warning us about the Jews.

I look forward to Trump having a field day tweeting about this.

Next war with Germany needs to be complete.....

= = = = = = = = = = = =

Start with economics.
Withdraw ALL but the bare bones essential troops and US dependents/civilians from Germany and place them in ‘friendly’ countries.

It won’t take long for them to feel the ‘pinch’ of ALL that GI money being spent elsewhere.

By all means, let's take Germany's advice on how to deal with the Jews.
