...Trump will recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital...despite...fury from the Pope, the UK,...
The Daily Mail (UK, Britain) ^ | 05DEC17 | Associated Press and David Martosko, US POLITICAL EDITOR FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

In the UK Prime Minister Theresa May said she would challenge the country's closest ally. 'I'm intending to speak to President Trump about this matter,' May told MPs. 'Our position has not changed, it has been a long standing one and it is also a very clear one. 'It is that the status of Jerusalem should be determined in a negotiated settlement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, and Jerusalem should ultimately form a shared capital between the Israeli and Palestinian states.'

The Catholic Church leadership does not care for the government of Israel. This has been going on for a long time after all the leadership of the Church is Leftist. The Pope referred to himself as Pope Che.

Does the Pope hate Judaism so much he'd like to see it replaced with Islam?

Yes.

The Trump Plan is the only plan with any chance of bringing peace to the Middle East.

The rest of the world is pushing a plan of slowly squeezing Israel in a vise and ultimately destroying Israel.

Look at the transfer of Gaza to the PLO as the model.

Remember the world community buying the amazing Israeli green houses from their owners to give to the Palestinians to help jump start their economy .

The day the Gaza was transferred, the Palis looted and destroyed the green houses .

Remember pictures of jubilant Palestinians waving bits of bent electrical conduit with hanging junction boxes and ripped out electrical wires trailing like a captured enemy battle flag.

Decades in the building, the green houses took one day to destroy

THAT is what victory look like to the Palestinians, not operating the amazing green house network and technology system pioneered by the Israelis and laboriously built up over several decades of capitol investment and hard work to provide a living for the people of Gaza

The Palestinians don't want peace, they want to destroy Israel and the so called Peace Process is a charade imposed on Israel the outside world and administered by the corrupt UN. For true peace to exist in the region, the peace process must be ended.

Once the Palestinians understand they are not going to destroy Israel and take it over, then they can work for peace.

Moving the capitol of Israel to Jerusalem is the first step in that process.

"The Pope?! No blasphemy intended, but what the hell is the matter with him?!"

The blasphemy was issued by him--not you. Rome has always wanted Jerusalem, but the decision on who will belong in Israel is not to be re-decided by humans.

Some slightly older news, although the more ancient events were more outrageous.

What’s the matter with him is He’s a borderline apostate and good socialist.

A strong argument can be made that the Pope would not mind seeing Christianity supplanted by Islam

The “pope” is a Roman Catholic, Jewish hating, antisemite who loves Muslims; what else is new?

“Perhaps, Mrs. May would like to invite the Palestinians to share London with the UK?”

Too late for that. A Muslim already runs Londonistan.

The actions by President Trump are showing the world who ours and Israel's true friends are.

It's as transparent as a window, but like moths to a flame these stupid people can't help themselves.

The photos of Palestinians burning our flag are going to go over real well to win over our hearts and minds for their cause >:(

Are you kidding? If this Marxist had been pope during the cold War he would have sided with the Soviets.

The Brits should STFU. After what they did to stop emigration from Europe during WW2 to (then) Palestine, and then their obvious tipping of the scales in favor of the Arabs between WW2 and the end of the Mandate, they are in NO position to lecture anyone about what Israel’s capitol should be.

I find it amazing the the usual cast of characters is lined up to try to screw Israel. They have no shame whatsoever. Why is it that Israel is the only nation on Earth that doesn’t have others recognize its self-declared capitol? Looking at those opposed to Israel, the answer is clear.

is that the status of Jerusalem should be determined in a negotiated settlement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, and Jerusalem should ultimately form a shared capital between the Israeli and Palestinian states.

She contradicts herself within the same sentence!

First the status of Jerusalem should be determined in negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, then...

Then she already decided, unilaterally, that Jerusalem should be a shared capital.
