European Union foreign ministers on Monday opposed any plan by President-elect Donald Trump to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and warned that it could ratchet up tensions with the Arab world.

“It is very important for us all to refrain from unilateral actions, especially those that can have serious consequences in large sectors of public opinion in large parts of the world,” EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini told reporters after chairing their talks in Brussels.

“We hope that there can be reflection on consequences of any move that is taken,” she said. …

Israel is the only country that has the right to tell us where to put our Embassy.

The shrilling Eurotrash countries can go to hell and take care of Nato without us.

Would not worry about it.

There won’t be an EU in the future.

“European Union foreign ministers on Monday opposed any plan by President-elect Donald Trump to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem...”

EU foreign ministers matter just about as much as Barry Obama on 1/20/17. On that date we will again be a sovereign nation that actually considers what’s good for the American people and our allies.

No, but plans are in place already to replace it, and it’s not the plans of the Islamists. The EU was always about ruling by crisis, and grabbing power.

Take note of their tone. They have always asserted this tone even long before their current self-inflicted Islamist crisis; it’s the same tone that resulted in UN Resolution 3379.

The Euro-weenies are quaking in their boots, that the Muslims infesting Europe will launch terrorist attacks there, in retaliation for what the US does.

There fixed it. They will be opposed to any plan by President Trump (period).

Why does it make me smile to see the Europeans do not like President Trump? For too long the United States has put other nations interest before her own. It is time to change that.

Where OUR embassy resides in Israel is none of the EU’s business. It is the business of Israel and the USA. All others are invited to pound sand.

Too bad, so sad. The U.S. is a sovereign country, in fact, the world’s sole remaining superpower, so guess what? We can do what we want to do whether the EU opposes it or not!!!

That is like the question, "Why are their no Moslems in Star Trek?"

Answer - Because it takes place in the future.

Oh, if we put the US embassy in Jerusalem, it will break the long-standing peaceful nature of the Palestinian Arabs against Israel. /s

They might lob rockets from Gaza, or try to kidnap, blow up and kill Israeli citizens, something they haven't done before. /s

And it might end all the friendly acts from Europe towards Israel, where they sided with Israel against the Palestinians. /s

Let's go for it, the worst that can happen has already been happening over the last six decades. Time for our nation to do what is right and kick those EU muslim sympathizers in the teeth and put them on notice not to appease the muslim terrorists who constantly attack them. Man up, EU. Not sarcasm this time.

Move our embassy there, remove all UN funding from nations that support the Palestinians and to just show how nice we can be, increase our oil exploration activities and drop the price of oil to next to nothing.

Then say to the Arab world, You will all recognize Israel’s right to exist as a sovereign nation as the starting point for any peace talks. Anything else is a non-starter and any attacks against Israel is an attack on the US.

LOL..........The USA is NOT a member of the E.U. and will make its own SOVEREIGN decisions. The embassy WILL be moved to Jerusalem as our president chooses to do.
