Israel recognizes Jerusalem as their capital. To heck with everyone else.

I see what you're saying and you're right but I also see him appeasing his base, the evangelicals and the right wing Israelis by giving Poland........I mean Jerusalem, to one side in a complex conflict. no other nation has done this.

As he hadn't been in office previously, there was some doubt that he would deliver and govern as promised. But I'm more than thrilled that he has!
As he is no doubt thrilled his base sets the bar so low.

You're right. It does matter. Dead is dead. But the United States, in a non-violent act of recognizing what is already reality within Israel, is NOT to blame for the savage reactions from Islamists that are likely to come. Much like the black Freedom Riders from the Civil Rights Movement in this country were NOT to blame for the racist, Democrat-led violence against (including deadly violence) them that they knew was likely to come when they "dared" to march. What a disgraceful point of opposition that you're putting up. Truly shameful.

we would have them things by now. the problem not Trump. yes he a little wacko, the problem is the hillary group that just want to fight

What a lame-assed excuse considering the President's own party controls both houses of Congress and nobody forced the blowhard to make the promises he made!

Religions are simply ideologies - don't forget that. A religion that states or implies its ok to kill for certain reasons has a different impact on humans than one that states its entirely impermissible ever to kill. Jainism and Islam, for example, have very different impacts. All ideologies (whether you label them religions or not) are not equal in outcome, especially with regard to human rights. And since religions are what is practiced - not some unblemished idea existing in the sky - the current form(s) of said religions are of significance.

So many people have never attempted to study the issues that are really involved in the Middle East Conflict. From what I can tell, we can divide supporters of what Trump did into these categories:

1. "I am for it because Trump is"

2. "I am for it because my interpretation of the Bible say it is".

3. "I am for it because all Muslims are enemies of America."

No cogent arguments based on history. No attempt to review American foreign policy over the last seventy years. Its just like Donald Trump. All bombast and no substance.

And you probably wonder why he has only a 39% approval rating.

Whatever .....

Having been through 8 years of lies by the last administration, that lied on nearly everything, Trump is refreshing. Trump has fulfilled more of his promises in less than one year than bend over boy did in 8.
