Re: jerusalem
Jerusalem has been the de facto capital of Isreal since 1948It parliament the Knesset is there as is the Prime Ministers office and many more government buildings.
The refusal to acknowledge Jerusalem as Israel’s capital is just campain to delegitimise Israel .
Isreal is there it's not going away and has the right as any other country in the world to choose its capital .
The UN and the PLO or anyone else have nothing to do with this
This is precisely why Trump’s decision is right
He simply acknowledged a fact.
Jerusalem is capital of Israel
And so should we.

Re: jerusalem
Never heard such a simplistic unworldly view as a country has the right to pick it's own capital. When it involves filching territory to do it and is illegal to do so.Closest comparison is Berlin .... once divided by a wall. Once two separate countries.
Someone ... pinch me if the Scots ever decide to name their Capital as Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

Some are getting all het up, and muddled, and seem to be having trouble differentiating between ME politics and the UK.
Attacking Islamic culture in it's own country , based on perceptions closer to home, indeed 'at home' ... is probably just designed to derail the topic.

Facts are facts
Despite all the silly naysaying
No Arab nation or Muslim people ever sought to make Jerusalem their capital.
Israel’s reunification of Jerusalem brought with it for the first time in centuries a guarantee that peace loving people of all religions can easily access all of Jerusalem’s holy sites.
And most of Jerusalems ancient buildings are Jewish the remnants of Jewish culture .Jerusalem founded by king David
King of the Jews .
Jerusalem is the capital of Israel .

Re: jerusalem
How To Acquire A Capital.Step 1 War.
Israel captured East Jerusalem from Jordan during the 1967 Six-Day War and subsequently annexed it into Jerusalem, together with additional surrounding territory.
One of Israel's Basic Laws, the 1980 Jerusalem Law, refers to Jerusalem as the country's undivided capital.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem
Step 2. Get an American President to Endorse It.
Along came Trump. Give it enough time and the rest will be history, as the saying goes..
Nothing can be clearer than that.

Re: jerusalem
Myself .. I'm not really sure glorifying one side (either side) , and it's atrocities is really the way forward. It's too much like cheering blood sports.Israeli Soldiers Beat A Palestinian To Death.

And.. from the other side of the great divide.
