A nice long discussion of the decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Interestingly, Amir says the waiver was signed. (Looks like even the New York Times didn't know that. They say he WILL sign it.)
More interesting stuff about Turkey, a clarification of recent events, and lots of good words about our president.
Enjoy your early Christmas present!
A blessed weekend to all.
I guess we know why Clinton, Bush and Obama all said they agreed with Jerusalem as the capital of Israel but never had the courage to actually do what Trump is doing. The cowards wanted to avoid inflaming the Muslim world and be blamed for causing “tensions”. Well, there has yet to be any real progress on peace in that region and the Palestinians don’t really want there to be. Naturally, this development will be an excuse to riot, loot, bomb, murder and raise hell - all actions civilized people abhor. They only demonstrate they are unworthy of having a state of their own. They have NEVER wanted real peace with Israel! Jerusalem IS the capital of Israel and it has been for thousands of years. I applaud Trump’s bravery and tenacity. He is doing things the past presidents were too wimpy to even try.
I agree.
We are going to see mayhem here in NYC over the holidays, but they were threatening that even before Trump’s speech. Anyway, can’t let them terrorize you, as that is their whole purpose.
Thanks :)
God bless you
