1. Be fearless. This our land! "Palestine" is finished.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.24.17)
If Israel's founders worried about the "Arab street", they never would have declared independence in the first place. Be fearless. This is our land! It is way past time to bring the evil fiction of "Palestine" to an end.
2. if he moves the Embassy, Armaggedon will break out, best to
get the Samson ,   option ready!   (01.24.17)
3. Mayor Barkat's chest pounding aside. US embassy isn't moving

This is why, President Trump has told PM Netanyahu to sit down and cool his heels.
This is why PM Netanyahu has sat down and is cooling his heels.

The leader on this is DM Liberman who for weeks now has been advising all of the Israeli right to sit down and cool their heels. DM Liberman knows a thing or two more than PM Netanyahu on this matter. DM Liberman knows a thing or two more than Minister Bennett.

But really and truly, at the end of the day President Trump will be like every other president that embassy will stay in Tel Aviv...first because of President Trump's special relationship with Moscow and secondly because of President Trump's Secy of State's special relationship with Moscow and Riyadh

All that said it is good to be prepared.

1 israeli arabs will have to get used to the fact that the embassy of the
united states, a sovereign nation, is in israel's capital, jerusalem.
2 if the palestinian authority causes trouble regarding the relocation
of the us embassy to jerusalem, trump then can refuse visas to
palestinians.
3 the jordanian king will not fall because of this issue.
4 incitement in the muslim world is common.
they only hurt themselves.
5. Blood is thicker than water
Heshy Friedman ,   Brooklyn New York   (01.25.17)
All you nay Sayers who think Trump is going to listen to all these nay Sayers are wrong. His son in law supports the move,his lawyer now ambassador supports the move and the Jews who did vote for him support the move. Yes at this point he has a lot on his plate but he will get to it. He despises the Moslems and did not have any Moslem clergy speak at the inauguration,other than two Christian ones and an orthodox rabbi. He hates the liberal media and has no respect for them. He has grown close to the religious Christian communities as well as the orthodox jewish communities. He has no fear of Arab treats and will respond with a heavy hand. He can look the other way as israel expels all Arab troublemakers to Syria. He will cut in funding and warn Arab countries of cutting their Usa aid as well. It's simple. Trump has built giant skyscrapers,so building an american embassy building in Jerusalem is no big deal. The main thing now is to build for Jews and spread out all over our land and stop building tall buildings in tel aviv or Jerusalem that are easy targets of missles.
