Russia recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's capital
The Hill ^ | 4.6.17 | nikita-vladimirov

Russia on Thursday publicly recognized West Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel.

The announcement was made in a statement by Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs that addressed the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

In the statement, Moscow reaffirmed its "support for the two-state solution" while acknowledging that East Jerusalem should be the capital of the future Palestinian state.

Phony title. They recognize only West Jerusalem as Israel’s capital—while simultaneously recognizing East Jerusalem (including all of the Old City, significant to Christians as well as Jews) as the capital of “Palestine.”.

The only reason Muslims want Jerusalem is because they conquered it and built a shrine to Satan on it. They did that because they’re at war with every other religion. If conquering a territory makes it yours, then Israel should legitimately be able to conquer it back.

I’ve seen several reports indicating that this would be the long-term goal of the U.S. as well. The U.S. consulate in East Jerusalem would become the U.S. embassy to “Palestine,” however that ends up being defined.

What a bunch of B.S.aloney. All of Jerusalem belongs to Israel. It is there’s from God. This cannot change no matter what man may do. Praise be to God!

Yes, I’ve seen that also. However, any “two-state solution” is a precursor to more “Palestinian” attacks and warfare, even with Hamas’ recent supposed “moderation” of their language. The “Palestinians” want only a one-Caliphate solution.

>> The U.S. consulate in East Jerusalem would become the U.S. embassy to “Palestine”

At that point the US would cease to exist as the full wrath of Yehova rained down on us.

Maybe, but perhaps the easiest way to deal with hostile players is to put up a big wall between you and them.

Russia recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s, Syria going bonkers right now- the times they are very interesting- keep a very close eye on syria in the coming months-

The end times are going to unfold very very rapidly- Christians of course won’t be here- BUT we will be here when the stage is being set I believe-

Some are claiming the rapture will be in Sept- 22 they claim- has something to do with sum Jewish holy time or something- I don’t put a lot of stock in set dates- however, it is a possibility given what we are witnessing unfold in the world

Did you know Saddam was rebuilding Babylon and that UNESCO is still pouring money into it’s rebuilding? Saddam actually believed he was a relative of King Nebuchadnezzar- He even had money printed depicting him and the king- and had bricks made which are used i n the city of Babylon with his and the king’s name-

We are in very very interesting times now- And when the world powers get together, Babylon will be rebuilt extremely fast as labour and money is poured into rebuilding the wicked cultural city back to it’s former ‘glory’-

Keep an eye on Syria- see if they all of a sudden do an about face and offer a peace deal with Israel- If so- you may wanna sell off whatever stock you own and go on vacation

This is sort of fake news. Only one half of Jerusalem? Weird.

No leverage to do that when everything here is based on stuff out of the UN. So the indefensible 1967 “borders” (armistice lines) are of course part of this. This is throwing up siege ramps against Israel.

Jerusalem in its entirety is the capital, not just West Jerusalem.

So God allowed Rome to destroy the temple and scatter the Hebrews to the 4 corners of the earth and still continue on for hundreds of years, but he’ll destroy us the minute we put an embassy to the Palestinians in east Jerusalem? Call me skeptical.

In any case it won’t happen. The Israelis will never sign on to splitting Jerusalem again.

No, no, no. That’s not how it works. Once Islam conquers a territory, it is theirs forever. That’s why Spain/Portugal are only temporarily Christian. It’s kind of like the old Breshnev Doctrine only, of course decreed by Allah or Whoever.

I’ve been a pre-triber In 1973 with Hal Lindsey. Then I was a mid-tribber in the early 80’s. Then a post tribber.

Based on recent history, I would trust muslims around the relics of Christianity about as far as I could throw the Sphinx.

Israel’s biggest security risk isn’t a military invasion — it’s internal strife from disaffected people who aren’t on the same page politically or culturally as the dominant group. It’s not much different than the situation here in the U.S. with our own permanent underclass, when you think about it.
