Organization of Islamic Cooperation rejects actions that could undermine PA's ability to claim Jerusalem for a state.
Foreign ministers from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Thursday indirectly condemned plans by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump to move the embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, reports The Associated Press.
A statement issued after a meeting in Kuala Lumpur did not specifically mention the United States or Trump by name, but said the OIC rejected any actions that could undermine the ability of Palestinian Arabs to claim part of Jerusalem in a future state.
It also called on governments to desist from any activities that might encourage Israel to "pursue its illegal occupation and annexation of ....east Jerusalem, including any such encouragement through the transfer of their diplomatic missions to the city."
The statement invited the OIC’s 57 member states "to take the necessary steps and measures" in response to any such hostile position, but did not elaborate.
Moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and thus recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital was a central campaign promise of Trump’s.

They need the same answer Nehemiah gave them , but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem.
(Nehemiah 2:19) But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?
(Nehemiah 2:20) Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build: but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem.

Can you guess which 57 are whining about Trump moving the embassy to Jerusalem ?
Islamic countries condemn planned U.S. embassy move
Lesson:
When you’ve got what you want, don’t attack your neighbor. You may lose it
They lost it.
Israel has considered Jerusalem their city for thousands of years.
Arabs, man up and accept it.
Their Koran has “Allah” instructing them that he’s given that land to the Jews.
The Arab states rejected a Jewish state in 1948. Little has changed since.
Of course they do
Satan hates it when God’s people prevail ...
This is what the LORD says: “I will return to Zion and dwell in Jerusalem. Then Jerusalem will be called the Faithful City, and the mountain of the LORD Almighty will be called the Holy Mountain.” Zechariah 8:3
However at that time tiny Israel defeated 22 strong Arab countries...
“However at that time tiny Israel defeated 22 strong Arab countries...”
Unfortunately, Israel will need to continue defeating Arab and Persian armies far into the future.
He’s put Kushner in charge of the “peace deal” which to the Jew hating muslims is going to be a pretty big piece of pork to swallow.
Jerusalem is and always has been Israel’s real capital. The Islamic claim on it is just their way of waging Jihad. Jerusalem to them is only conquered territory, not a holy site.
Oh, those are the 57 “states” that Obama said he liked. Thought he was talking about the U.S.
Sorry!
Thanks Sister Lera
With Russia in Syria and helping Iran, one could be excused for thinking these are looking more and more like end times.
I’m not sure Israel will have to defeat the Arabs many more times.
Not trying to be argumentative. Just making an observation.
The only Arab claim to Jerusalem, is that it is the capital of God’s chosen people, They claim otherwise, but they know it and we know it.
Islam is a war plan.
I sure hope we’re not approaching end times.
Trying to be optimistic for at least the next nine hours or many more.
Arabs claiming any part of Jerusalem is as absurd as Jews claiming part of Mecca or Medina. Actually more absurd....Jews had land and power in Medina before Mohammed slaughtered them all. Islam has NO history in Jerusalem before Muslim armies conquered it 1400 years ago. The Arabs calling themselves “Palestinians” are merely what’s left of the true “occupiers.”
LOL
I wasn’t thinking quite that immediate.
Enjoy. I certainly will.
Some rabbis believe Trump is the new prophecised 'King Cyrus' that will lead to the 3rd Temple being built
Dear Arabs,
cry us a river!
