Arab ministers demand reversal of Trump Jerusalem decision
Associated Press ^ | Dec 9, 2017 9:21 PM EST | Hamza Hendawi

Arab foreign ministers on Sunday demanded that the United States rescind President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, calling it a “grave” development that puts Washington on the same side as “occupation” and the violation of international law.

In a resolution long on rhetoric but short on concrete actions, the ministers also called for the U.N. Security Council to adopt a resolution condemning Trump’s decision, but acknowledged that Washington would most likely veto it. If the U.S. vetoes the resolution, the Arabs would seek a similar resolution in the U.N. General Assembly, Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad Al-Maliki told a pre-dawn news conference in Cairo.

A two-page resolution adopted by the emergency meeting, which began Saturday night, did not include any punitive actions against the United States, like a call for a boycott of American products or suspending or downgrading ties with Washington. It also appeared to fall short of matching the anger felt by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, which have seen three days of violent protests against Trump’s decision.

“We have taken a political decision not meant to reflect (what is going on in) the streets. Political work is responsible work,” said Arab League chief Ahmed Aboul-Gheit. “Jerusalem has been occupied for 50 years. This is an extended battle, a battle that will be escalated,” he told the news conference. …

Please let the U N do as requested. Then we can add that to the innumerable list of reasons we have to withdraw from the U N and kick their sorry asses out of the country.

They pray and chant for our death, and strap bombs to their children to kill us. And then demand concessions? In what world is that justice?

The last three presidents all did what the Muslims told them to do.

End the occupation now! The Muslim interlopers must leave! There is no other way to bring Peace to the Holy Land of Israel. If the Yidden would trust God as they did in biblical times, and walk out the Torah as one man. It would be over. Of course the doors of repentance are open for all men; that is, beginning with the Jews and radiating outward to the ends of the earth. One day, and may it come soon, there will be no Muslim on the face of the earth. No Hindus, Christians, Buddhists, Mormons or Protestants. All nations shall go up to Jerusalem to worship the God of Jacob, and all nations will join the Commonwealth of Israel. A Child shall lead them and the Messiah himself shall teach them. Shalom.

My question to the Arab ministers “What are you going to do about it? Are you ready to be green-glassed?”

So Abbas won’t meet with VP Pence. Someone should remind him the Americans fund him with $350 million dollars a year plus American businessmen investments. A lot of this money is given to terrorists and their families, and Abbas refused to stop these blood money payoffs with our tax dollars.

Because, if you make homicidal nuts homicidal, they might become homicidal. Or something like that.

I’m an Italian from Brooklyn.

We’re half Jewish by osmosis according to my Late Father.

Growing up I only knew three kinds of People, Italians, Jews and Irish Priests. Then we moved to CA...
