Let's Discuss Relocation Of The U.S. Embassy In Israel
Yeah, and it's not like anyone in the world can credibly argue that giving Israel's enemies what they want will bring about peace among Israel's enemies. Hell, they'll fight over Jerusalem among themselves just because "protecting" Temple Mount will be just as big a status symbol and source of political authority as controlling Mecca and Medina.

Show of hands. Who's the Boss? Thought so.

Sit down and shut up till I beat your next statement out of you...



Nikki Haley on UNSC vote:“The United States will not be told by any country where we can put our embassy. What we have witnessed here is an insult. It won’t be forgotten. It is one more example of the UN doing more harm than good in addressing the Israeli Palestinian conflict."

I say "fuck 'em". Good on Trump for doing the right thing here.


Nailed it!

"Before the vote, Haley condemned the previous resolutions against the Jewish state.

“For decades Israel has withstood wave after wave of bias in the U.N. and its agencies,” said Haley. “The United States has often stood beside Israel…we did not on December 23, 2016…we will not make that mistake again.”

Haley went on to say the Obama-era resolution became a stain on America’s conscience after it passed."

I appreciate the clarity of expression this ambassador brings to the discussion.
