1. Time to Condemn Palestinian violence
Ed ,   USA   (12.06.17)
That Trump's proclamation has evoked widespread condemnation of the US instead of Palestinian threats to violence says everything about why this conflict persists. It shows the complicity of the EU, UN, and world governments in preventing any sort of just settlement.
2. Change
US Soldier ,   Virginia   (12.06.17)
Palestine is Jordan, it is well past time to recognize that and denote permanent boundaries. Repatriate all Jordanian/Palestine citizens back to their country and let them turn that desert in to their permanent home. If they won't go peacefully, arrest them and level the area with bulldozers. Enough is enough.
3. All done and dusted.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (12.06.17)
And the world didn't shake.

THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!

5. Channel 2 declares State of Mourning
5thColumnMedia ,   Jerusalem   (12.06.17)
Immediately 5 of the 6 panalists on
The main newscast after the announcement
Began to pick his announcement apart
And disparage it . They were furious
About the decision some looked like they wanted
To cry Yonit Levi looked like she
Was going to have a nervous breakdown
The only country in the world with a
Media that hates its nation and people unbelievable
6. Israeli’s Leftist Media declares day of mourning
EnemyMedia ,   Jerusalem   (12.06.17)
Israel’s leftist dominated media furious
Over Trump declaration
When will Israel have a loyal media
A pro Zionist Mefia a Media of the
People ?

G.K.
8. Trumps generally speaks like a senile old man
Tom   (12.06.17)
Even in this case, what reality is he recognizing? That after 50 years Jerusalem remains ethnically split into west and east?

11. I love president Trump
Emmanuel ,   abuja   (12.06.17)
May God bless you.you are a true leader
12. Milestone Recognition
Ayodeji ,   Ibadan   (12.06.17)
A good step in the right ð゚ムノ direction. Thank you Mr. President and the citizens of the US. Israel, we rejoice with you.
13. Trump is securing his place among greatest U.S. Presidents
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.06.17)
It took great courage for Trump to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's Eternal Capital. It is an obvious fact. Yet all the dark forces of evil, in the world, stand united against Trump's decision. From violent "Palestinian" poseurs to Radical Muslims to fascists to globalists and self hating leftist Jews. Trump is securing his place among the very greatest U.S. Presidents. It is inevitable that America's embassy will soon open in Jerusalem, and than many others will follow. G'd bless Donald Trump!
14. Britain is another.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (12.06.17)
If you were in Britain following the Brexit negotiations,you'd know that the British left-liberal, especially the BBC,is an enemy of poular democracy.


While I'm on the subject,I'd say that the EU 'negotiators' must have learned their technique from the PLO terrorists:set maximalist preconditions and demands, accept nothing except capitulation and screw as much money as they can.

THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
15. Conflict of Laws
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (12.06.17)
US law has Trumped 'International Law'..... and about time, too.

I await the pseudo lawyers' response. They stand no chance.

THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
16. At long last....A President who is logical and unafraid.....
Froike ,   NY USA   (12.06.17)
Thank you Dear Mr. President...Recognition of Jerusalem as The Capitol of Israel is only logical. Jerusalem is cited in Tanach and later writings as the Holiest Place in the World: The site of The City of King David and The Two Holy Temples.
Why pay attention to The Fakestinians who claim Jerusalem is their Capitol...?
They are interlopers who did not occupy Jewish Land till thousands of years later. Now Jerusalem will be open to all Monotheist Religions for worship.
It is a win-win for Jews, Christians, and Muslims!
17. It is done
Cameron   (12.06.17)
18. Political Stunt
David ,   New York, NY   (12.06.17)
Trump is very unpopular among Americans. This is just a stunt to win cheap political points.
19. Rafik the Arab, Netanyahu is the 2nd best PM of Israel
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (12.06.17)
Told you so but you as an Arab have to object to anything Jews say.
20. THANK YOU MR. PRESIDENT
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (12.06.17)
President Trump has corrected a historical wrong. He is one brave and good fellow ,of true honour and integrity. May he be blessed for all eternity.
21. Trump and prophecy Zacharia 12
Dik ,   Spijkenisse   (12.06.17)
Jerusalem a cup of trembling and a burdenstone for all nations. Shalom from Holland
22. damn .....
steve s   (12.07.17)
An honest and straight-forward speech stating facts rather than political bluster. Well done President Trump. Try and argue against his comments.
23. WTF
steve s   (12.07.17)
"Three days of rage" ............. over an announcement by another country. Weak minds turn to violence over anything they cannot comprehend. I am sick and tired of Arab Muslim bestiality.
24. THE RECOGNITION OF ISRAEL'S CAPITAL
JOHN   (12.07.17)
I applaud the president's courageous, progressive thinking, for finally recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. It was something that was long overdue, and important to accept the reality of the situation. For those who might disagree with the president's decision, ask yourselves what other country in the world were not permitted to choose their own capital, and to have it acknowledged by the rest of the world?
25. Right Thing To Do
Christy   (12.07.17)
We finally have a president with guts enough to do the right thing! The way some people have reacted, you'd think it's a big surprise that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.
26. First shot in War on Islam has been (finally!!!) fired.Bravo
(12.07.17)
27. "It's Official",,,,,,,,,
Rob ,   Wash. D.C.   (12.07.17)
The Anti-Christ, Gog and Magog(Fake Jews), Satan has set himself up in God's seat in Jerusalem, the so-called holy land. what comes next shouldn't be a shocker for,,,,,,,, it is written.
