    "Trump flouts warnings, declares Jerusalem Israel's capital"

    "Defying dire, worldwide warnings, President Donald Trump on Wednesday broke with decades of U.S. and international policy and formally recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital."

    "Despite urgent appeals from Arab and European leaders and the risk of anti-American protests and violence, Trump declared it was time for a new approach to Mideast peace"

    "Ahead of Trump's speech, a wide array of world leaders warned that his declaration could severely damage Arab-Israeli peace prospects in a region wracked by instability. They said recognizing Israel's claims to the city, however caveated, would infuriate Muslims and potentially spark protests and violence that might further fray American alliances."

    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/12/06...s-capital.html

    Now how exactly does this advance or serve US interests in the Middle East, or the World for that matter?

    More stupid declarations by a liberal idiot....
    Trump did not declare anything.....the country of Israel declared Jerusalem its capital long ago, in 1967.....long before Trump came along.....

    If that is what Israel wants, Trump will abide with its decision....that is all that changed.....nobody else can tell another country where it should have its capital city....
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    Um, so why then is Tel Aviv the capital?

    More likely this is just Trump throwing some more rotten meat to the morons that make up his supporters. It also helps detract from the looming Hammer of Mueller.

    It’s the right thing to do and congress approved it back in the 90’s.

    What has kowtowing to the Palestinians gotten us anyway? Do we back off because they’re going to throw a hissy fit?

    heres a better question to ask, why should we capitulate to threats of violence over where we choose to recognize a nations capital? How would anyone perceive the palestinians as the good guys when they threaten dangerous consequences for just choosing where to place our embassy.

    this is a win win situation for us and a genius political move. If the terrorist muslims do nothing, we've made them our bitch. If they decide to start blowing up people, they radically change the optics for themselves and bolster anti-islam sentiment. europe will start wanting to kick them out, and they will undermine themselves.

    Stunning.

    You'd have more credibility if you took a critical eye to a few things here or there. To declare everything this infant does "genius" is a real underminer.
