beside that - using your argument americans should give the country back to the indians.

usa and many other countries have officially stated jerusalem as the capital of israel but
with very good reasons they never made this official move because it was a negotiation instrument and something what the muslim world dreaded. now pandora's box is open and you can not close it anymore.

it is one thing if NK get blamed with UN resolutions and called "a bad place" but it is another thing to drop the first bomb on them.
and it is another thing to accept jerusalem as israels official capital or moving the embassy there.
earlier presidents did not do it because they have been light years wiser than trump.

from now on USA will sit in the same boat with israel - no matter what they do (and no - they are not only doing good things there).
USA will now be even a greater target for islamic terrorists and the islam fundamentalism
will spread much faster.

i don´t know if this guy did not learn from 9/11 and saw that you can not eliminate the fundamental terror with the strongest army in the world.
they are not an army - they are hundreds of millions and millions of individuals spread over the whole planet and many of them have an american passport and are born there.
they are not to beat with hate and weapons. they are not afraid to die. same as the vietnamese haven´t been afraid to die.

isreal got used to be a terror target 365 days per year.
USA will have to learn it from now on and you can thank you to trump who obviously is so dement that he forgot all the examples from the history and where they was leading to.

the really big question what should be asked is: WHO IS LEFT ON THIS PLANET ON THE SIDE OF AMERICA SINCE TRUMP ???
Isreal? - What is that in compare to BILLIONS of enemies ?
