There is a reason no other President has done this. I wonder if the resulting body count will MAGA?

Clark proposed doing it during his short tenure as PM.

A lot has changed in 30 years.

Reminder.
Fulfilling a campaign pledge he made to the AIPAC.
Decision made by Congress 20 years ago.
He will still sign the 6 month waiver, so it needs to wait until
some teeth are behind the decision.
It will take years to move the embassy, and we should wait to hear if he
says ALL Jerusalem.
Kushner better have one hell of a peace plan ready, I imagine
the Pali butthurt will be..... tremendous.

Two organisations that are full of terrible ideas.
There was a microscopic chance of peace before this. Now there is no chance. This will likely start a new intifada among other terrible consequences of this stwggeringly boneheaded move, even by Trumps’s low low standards.

Iran won't like us anymore, Saudi Arabia won't be overly happy either.

Kushner will be in jail soon, where he will very likely get butt hurt for real.

I have no opinion of this. I could care less if it pisses off the Muslims. All it means is that things will get worse but making things worse is what Trump's all about anyway so he's just operating according to his programming. It also reveals again that he's just another bullshit tough guy because if he's doing this for AIPAC then all it means is that he merely another Likud puppet in the Oval Office.

Oh I get it!
Trump is the antichrist!
Don't the bible prophecy crowd say something about the Antichrst appearing in the form of a great western leader who brings peace to Israel and building a temple in Jerusalem before revealing himself as an agent of Satan and triggering the end times?
$1:
The Bible does not reveal specifically who the Antichrist is, speaking instead of his corrupt teachings. In 2 Thessalonians 2, Paul prophesied of a “man of sin,” a liar and deceiver whose natural abilities Satan enhances by supernatural power in order to confuse people in the end time. ...
Finally, note how the prophecy describes a great religious leader of the end time: “He had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon” (Revelation 13:11). That is to say, he takes on the image of (or imitates) Jesus Christ (the Lamb of God), but is empowered by Satan. Historically, a counterfeit version of Christianity fulfills the types we read of in the prophecies of Revelation.
Yup sounds like Trump alright.

Jerusalem is the capitol city of Israel. It's their seat of government.
Period.

Just one of the reasons it was so short.
Poking sleeping dogs with a stick is a US past-time. Poked Russia until it got hostile again, poking Kimmie on a daily basis, poke away at the Arabs with shit like this.
And then gets all upset and acts surprised at the reaction.

All the resulting gunfire, bomb-dropping, and other assorted mayhem ought to be good for a few laughs though. We can make some popcorn and watch the hi-lites in between football games, the way some good patriots do.

Caving in to bullies who want Israel destroyed makes one look a coward.
Jerusalem is Israel's seat of government. Period. This bullshit over their capitol city is bullshit because the reality is that it's their capitol.
And as Israel's closest ally it's long overdue that we respect their choice for where they place their seat of government.

Caving in to the religious bullies and unindicted criminals that currently rule Israel makes one no better than a catamite to a foreign state.
