So far, the news reports are that 52 people have been killed in the protests against moving the U. S. Embassy to Jerusalem. Trump knew exactly what chaos would result from this action and that's why he did it. He and his war-mongering staff, are doing their best to foment conflict, rather than to seek peace. The longer he stays in office, the greater the chance we will plunge into war, with multiple fronts. There will come a day, when his name is cursed by all of us, not just 65% of our population. This is assuming, of course, that we survive what he brings upon us.

Most evangelicals don't consider Obama a Christian because he supported separation of church and state, a woman's right to choose, and LGBT equality. In fact its commonly said among evangelicals that it's impossible to be a Christian and have voted for Obama.

I'm not disagreeing with you; I'm just showing that Obama invoked the space zombie as much as anyone.

Meanwhile, Ivanka and Jared are sipping an expensive champagne in Jerusalem.

It's the minority of Palestinian fanatics , and most of the their PLO government, who want to keep attacking and murdering Jews. They are the ones responsible for the violence over the embassy today.

When the PLO was first formed, it had a section of their charter that explicitly called for the annihilation of Israel. And despite years of diplomacy, pressure, negotiations etc., they have never removed it. It's still there. And it still calls for the complete destruction of Israel today.

Maybe they're celebrating their upcoming Nobel peace prize.

Not quite. Israel lies. One Israeli soldier with a conscience tells the truth.

My first mission involved the seizure of a Palestinian home. I had never before had the opportunity to be inside a Palestinian home, and my squad was surprised for a moment by the fact that within the home lived an entire family – spanning three generations. We woke everyone up, and took over the house. We put everyone in one room - women, men, children, and the elderly. One of the guys was stationed at the door to ensure that they didn’t get out.

This article here sums up why this Jerusalem move is so important for Trump's base.


Will Trump Hasten the Arrival of the Messiah? Jews and Evangelicals Think So


All that has to happen before the supposed return of Christ now is the construction of the Third Temple where the Dome of the Rock currently stands. I really wouldn't be surprised if Trump tries to make it happen.
You're not basing your statement with any sense of reality nor fact. Spreading lies doesn't help. There are no Evangelicals on the Supreme Court. The majority of the court are Roman Catholics and Jews. Your post is a huge fail.

And I'm sure that its no fun existing at all under the laws that make that one hundred percent possible.
