I don't really think anything will come of this.

Far as I understand it were just recognizing Jerusalem as the capital. So what?

So far...all MSM news outlets are saying it's bad. Therefore, it must be...right?

Wanna know what's funny, Dems and RINO's voted 93-5 in 1995 in favor of moving the embassy under WJC. Not a peep at the time about how horrible a move it was.

Since Trump wants to do it..."Donald is a moron"

This is why I love politics. It's fuckin hilarious.

If you don’t think this is HUGE, you are living under a rock.

To provide a more educated insight into this, here is Ben Shapiro's take on this. He's one of the most educated people that I know of as relates to this issue:

"It's obviously an act of not only political bravery but moral courage to move the embassy. But just to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital — the absurdity of the U.S. policy suggesting that Jerusalem is not Israel’s capital has resulted in idiocies like the fact that my niece, who was born in Jerusalem, it says on her passport Jerusalem and then it doesn’t say which country she’s from.

Jerusalem is only important to the world because of Judaism; it’s important to Christianity because it was first important to Judaism; it’s important to Islam because it was first important to Judaism. Jerusalem is mentioned hundreds of times in the Jewish texts; Jerusalem is in the Israeli national anthem. The culmination of Jewish history, really, was in 1967, with the recapture and the unification of Jerusalem under Judaic rule. The freedom of Jerusalem was only assured, by the way, because of that Jewish rule.

What President Trump is doing is not just a recognition of reality, it’s also an act of political usefulness, because all of the negotiations that have been happening for the past 20 years, for most of my lifetime, all of those negotiations have been preconditioned on stupidity, that Israel was going to give up its eternal capital, which is insane.

In order to understand how dumb that is, you have to think that for Israel, Jerusalem is about 1000 times more important than Washington, D.C. is to the United States. The founders put Washington D.C. on a swamp because they just wanted it to be not part of any state. The reason that Jerusalem is where it is, is because the Bible says where it is, so there’s a religious adherence to Jerusalem that doesn’t exist for normal capitals around the world.

And for President Trump to recognize that this isn’t going anywhere, that the freedom of Israel is inherently connected with the freedom of Jerusalem, and that any negotiations that are to take place are going to have to be done by the Israelis themselves, and the Israelis are going to have to make decisions about what to do about their capital — it’s a ground-shift and it’s a recognition of a reality that’s necessary in order for real peace to be achieved in the region."

Based on this commentary, it looks like the right move, and considering that the establishment was in favor of this under Slick Willie...I don't see why it's now a bad move under Trump.

I said I don't think anything will REALLY come of this.

Meaning I don't think we are going to see "WW3" over it.

Trump speaks and the MSM sky falls. Wake me up when real news happens.
