US (State Dept): Jerusalem's status open to discussion (...???)

The US State Department said Sunday that the future status of Jerusalem would be determined through peace negotiations, after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's declaration Thursday that the capital would "never again be partitioned and divided."

What would obama do or say if Russia's Putin declared that "chiciago's status was open to discussion" and future negotiations - call all his muslim friends for help?

Jerusalem’s status is none of the U.S.’s, or Obama’s, business. Sure would like to know why 0 thinks he is even entitled to an opinion on the subject.

The USA (Obama, and his corrupt Chicago Democratic politicians) are bullying tiny Israel. This is a national disgrace. May the G-d of Israel be with the Israeli’s and protect them from all evil.

Those who attack Israel have to deal with God. God forgive us and help us!

Here is another campaign lie from Obama.

Obama’s Comments on Israel Stir Criticism in U.S.

“Senator Barack Obama spoke to skeptical members of a pro-Israel lobby and made a pledge that some of them found pleasantly surprising: “Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided.”

[Mr Rogers]

In Obama’s defense, from the link you provided:

---

“For his part, Mr. McCain was not entirely clear on his position about Jerusalem either, saying that the city’s status would be subject to negotiations.

“The point is Jerusalem is undivided,” he said. “Jerusalem is the capital.”

“And,” he added, “we should move our embassy to Jerusalem,” from Tel Aviv, “before anything else happens. The subject of Jerusalem itself will be addressed in negotiations by the Israeli government and people.”

This was how McCain lost the election - by seeking to obscure any differences between himself and the democrat nominee...

McCain was never my choice anyway but he had a very clear opening when it came to dealing with Israel and the Palestinians, he should have supported Israel and called Obama the liar he is.
