The only way to win a war against evil is to get even evilier.

In a year of foreign policy failures this is Trump's biggest one yet, and its for nothing. The US doesn't benefit from this at all, no Americans get anything out of this move, it just makes us less safe, so way to go. I doubt the embassy every gets moved to Jerusalem, in fact I don't think Trump is going to do anything, that seems to be his MO. But there certainly won't be anymore peace talks.

The problem with the U.S. acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is that it upsets an already-tottering balance in the Middle East that will further push the more people into extremism that will lead to more violence, and it's entirely unnecessary.

Jerusalem is the capital of Isreal, I'm with niko, *** them. Are we going to start basing all our decisions of off what muslim extremists believe? Better tell your wife to cover up.

I'm not concerned what the current extremists think. I'm concerned about creating more extremists.

If they were all already extremists, I'd be okay with Plan Glass Hole In The Desert.

Why does Trump have the power to declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel?

That's it, as moderator of FFXIAH, I declare Wetwang the capital of the UK. Now you have to because some American said it.
Trump doesnt have the authority to tell Israel where it's capital is. Israel does and they declared Jerusalem their capital years ago. It's been the stated platform of dems and republicans for decades to do this, but it's never actually happened.

Trump obviously doesn't give a *** (thank god) and is interested in getting things done. Of course that means libs are gonna freak out about it because that's what the left is today. Whatever trump does they don't like it (great platform).

Trump derangement syndrome at it's finest.

We already have a major consulate building there anyway, all it's going to take is putting up an "american embassy" sign.

One more point to clarify.

Israel declared the capital Jerusalem years ago. The US has just never recognized it as the capital until now due to pressures from Muslim terrorist masquerading around as diplomats.

As I said above this has been on the stated "honey-do" list of both parties almost ever since Israel made their own declaration.

Then adopt Sharia law, and submit to them. Enabling terrorists only makes more of them.

You understand that you're exactly the same, right?

You want everyone to bow to your one limited view of how everything should be without question or exception too.

And you're willing to kill people who disagree with you.

You are exactly the same.

Actually, no, I'm wrong. You're not the same because you don't have the balls to do a damn thing other than sit on the internet and ***.

Just like everyone else here, myself included.

Hurray for armchair warriors in their comfy office chairs.

It clearly ruffles the feathers of peace-loving liberals so that's all that matters to him. He gets to upset someone who disagrees with him and any consequences aren't his to deal with so he doesn't care.

Confirmed, Nausi is liberal.

Honestly, even though I disagree with a lot of stuff that they say, at least Saev and Slore are vets and have some perspective when it comes to actually enacting policies that may result in military action.

Nausi is just...a troll. Literally. He only cares about trying to win some internet argument, he doesn't really give a good god damn about real world consequences for anyone.

Not even for himself, evidenced by his support of 45.

It expresses solidarity with our allies as opposed to trying to appease a bunch of lunatics who hate us anyway.

Yeah. This is another aspect that sort of boggles my mind from the opposite end. "It will take a long time to switch over."

***...why? If we're going to take this action, fine. I think it's dumb but wtf do I actually know about foreign policy other than what I read somewhere else and vomit back here?

But why would it take time? The building is there. Change the sign and drive your peeps from one city to the other. Decision's made, now ***or get off the pot.

This is about the only sensible thing here.

Like I said, I just kinda feel like we're doing our best to encourage more lunatics. Or maybe that's the point. Stir the hornets' nest enough to goad them into action and then counterstrike mercilessly.

It works from a StarCraft point of view.

Just, you know. Sucks donkey balls that we're talking about real people with real lives that are done gonna get *** up.

What allies? All of our Middle Eastern allies are pissed with this move. Turkey, Jordan, Qatar, the Saudis, all of them have said so. The only people doing the happy dance right now are the Iranians.

Fresh new Hope sounds like Disney's version of Star Wars with light sabers replaced with peace talks.

Chances are they would be pissed with us regardless...unless we turn into a Muslim country...
