In a highly controversial move, President of the United States Donald Trump will on Monday announce to move the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
The White House has confirmed that Donald Trump's team is in the "beginning stages" of a plan to relocate US Israeli embassy to Jerusalem.
An Israeli news outlet earlier reported an anonymous source as saying the announcement on America's embassy moving from Tel Aviv would be made by a member of Trump administration on Monday.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to speak with Trump by telephone on Sunday regarding the move.
The decision to relocate the US embassy to Jerusalem would represent a major break with US policy.
The Palestinians have said that an embassy move would kill any prospect for peace.
Sheikh Ekrema Sabri, imam of the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, has previously warned that relocating the embassy would be as good as a "declaration of war".
Donald Trump has said repeatedly that he intends to relocate the US embassy to Jerusalem, despite warnings the move would violate international law and destroy the peace process.
Yes, I would say Kushner has his work cut out for him.
You filthy scum declared war on the rest of the world 1400 years ago.
They have caused enough trouble to the Israelis for a made up fairy tale people.
peace ‘process’
process: noun
PROCESS: a series of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular end.
What is the ‘end’ here? Peace? No they have peace today, no one is shooting at each other. To me a process is when you put a bunch of pellets into a machine and a timing belt cover comes out the other end. You know the inputs, and you know the output.
So what is a ‘peace process’ end result. To me it’s a demeaning term saying that it is the eventual buckling of Israel to whatever terms the Israel-hating US president says it is. (until Trump, of course)
During the Vietnam War, they had the “Paris Peace Talks”. That made much more sense, since you could not predict the end result going in.
Anyway, not directed at you (of course, since the term is used everywhere), but just SICKENING to me, to hear that term abused this way.
What qualifies Jared Kushner to head these negotiations? And why not our SOS?
(Serious questions)
THIS YEAR IN JERUSALEM!
I have no idea. But supposedly that will be one of Kushner's tasks.
Trump has referred questions about Israel to Jason Greenblatt and to new Ambassador David Friedman.
“Yeah and we were ThisClose!! :)”
Exactly. We’re done ,listening to their promises of peace. It is time to just ignore them and do what is right.
For the people who have been misnamed Palestinians, Peace means kill every who is not them, and even some of them.
It is only controversial to lefty totalitarian Nazi hate mongerers.
The decision to relocate the US embassy to Jerusalem would represent a major break with US policy.
Actually, it would be the enactment of US policy.
Something that was ignored by the previous administrations.
Trump is doing exactly what he said, it’s why we elected him!
He couldn’t make it to the inauguration but did go to the women’s march.
Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995.
Fantastic.
Looking forward to the reactions from the usual suspects at home and abroad!!!
Those who identify as “Palestinian” should be informed that (1) they are not a sovereign nation-state
(2) have as, a people, been rejected for citizenship BY EVERY SOVEREIGN ARAB nation-state in the middle east for residency/refugee/citizenship
(3) have no true role in any so-called “peace process” as long as they continuously advocate for the death of all Israelites.
When the Palestinians become a civilized community that has advanced beyond the barbarism of the 6th Century (as well as the 7th/8th/9th/10th/11th/12th/13th/14th/15th/16th/17th/18th/19th/20th and 21st?
Then, maybe we can talk otherwise...barbarism begets barbarism.
[Sheikh Ekrema Sabri, imam of the al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, has previously warned that relocating the embassy would be as good as a “declaration of war”.]
By law, when 2 hijacked jetliners flown by Islamic terrorist pilots rammed into both of the twin towers and murdered the Americans therein and others thereafter was a declaration of Islamic War against America. Only a fool liberal leftist socialist will not see that.
Jerusalem is mentioned 669 times in the Old Testament, 154 times in the New Testament, (823 times in the Bible),and ZIP, Zero, Zilch in the koran. A one million dollar prize was offered to someone who can find Jerusalem in the koran, it remains unawarded.
And “peace” with the Palestinians is a temporary truce at best. They want to keep moving the ball until all of Israel is under their control. Best to end the farce and shut them down now.....on our terms.
There never has been any process for peace...because the palestinians only consider peace as having eliminated Israel!
