Why doesn’t a nation have the right to decide where their capital is?
In essence these people are saying that Israel shouldn’t be a nation, period.
This is a rather ridiculous news story in general, when the media says that “Donald Trump has decided that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel,” umm, news flash, God decided that about three thousand years ago and the Israeli government has been located in Jerusalem since the modern state came into being in 1948.
Western nations making some vague noises about Tel Aviv being the capital in their minds — that’s always just been a charade to keep Arab nations slightly less hostile. Look what we’ve gained from that over seventy years.
Good for Trump stating the obvious, but he didn’t “decide” anything, he’s just recognizing a reality.
Not only that, they’re telling the US where we can put our embassies.
