This is over Trumps recognition of Israel's authority over the Golan Heights, it helped get Netanyahu elected but it sure didn't help the peace process. No US president would have ever taken this action but you're criticizing the UN. The US is no longer recognized as an independent arbiter for the peace process, or is this the next step in the long awaited Kushner plan.
One doesn't need to be a rocket scientist to see that the "peace process" is a sham on the Palestinian's part who for decades of attempted peace process from several presidents have never really wanted peace. In the end Islamic countries that surround Israel and the Palestinian's want Israel gone.
What does it make you when you resort to the same exact tactics you criticize others of?
Unbelievable how liberals can't recognize their own hypocrisy.
We conservatives have been called everything from Hitler supporters, to racists, to idiots, to Hasbara trolls, to whatever, for two years as a way of delegitimizing us. I myself have been called a "Hitler child" because I refuse to side with the Palestinians (who would like to see Israel driven to the sea) and rally to the defense of anti-Semites such as Omar.
We have had Jews on this very forum say that they had been Democrats but can no longer support a party that tolerates antisemitism within its ranks while calling out Republicans as bigots.
P.S. I used to be a registered Democrat, too. So were most Republican Jews at one point. (And this was before the Democrats were hijacked by the anti-Semitic radical left. I'm sure we'll have more switching for the upcoming election.)

What have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Sidon,
and all the coasts of Palestine? (Joel 3:4)
Its a trivia thing though. Palestine is " de jure sovereign state".
It is what it is.
“What are you to me, O Tyre and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Are you paying me back for something
The Five Lords of the Philistines are described in the Hebrew Bible as being in constant struggle and interaction with the neighboring Israelites, Canaanites, and Egyptians being gradually absorbed into the Canaanite culture
biblical passages connect the Philistines to other biblical groups such as Caphtorim and the Cherethites and Pelethites, which have both been identified with Crete which has led to the tradition of an Aegean origin
"Philistine" represents a corruption of the Greek Phyle histia ("tribe of the hearth", with the Ionic spelling of "Hestia"
Philistines are not Palestines
now the REGION of Palestine was in what is now Syria and Jordan
from Wiki:
In 2003, a statue of a king named Taita bearing inscriptions in Luwian was discovered during excavations conducted by German archeologist Kay Kohlmeyer in the Citadel of Aleppo.[SIZE=2][61][/SIZE] The new readings of Anatolian hieroglyphs proposed by the Hittitologists Elisabeth Rieken and Ilya Yakubovich were conducive to the conclusion that the country ruled by Taita was called Palistin.[SIZE=2][62][/SIZE] This country extended in the 11th-10th centuries BCE from the Amouq Valley in the west to Aleppo in the east down to Mehardeh and Shaizar in the south.[SIZE=2][63][/SIZE] Due to the similarity between Palistin and Philistines, Hittitologist John David Hawkins (who translated the Aleppo inscriptions) hypothesizes a connection between the Syro-Hittite Palistin and the Philistines, as do archaeologists Benjamin Sass and Kay Kohlmeyer.[SIZE=2][64][/SIZE]Gershon Galil suggests that King David halted the Arameans’ expansion into the Land of Israel on account of his alliance with the southern Philistine kings, as well as with Toi, king of Ḥamath, who is identified with Tai(ta) II, king of Palistin (the northern Sea Peoples).[SIZE=2][[/SIZE]
btw What would you do if Israel invaded your land, murdered your parents and bulldozed your home.
Oh, this bad Israel, it just invaded other countries out of the blue without any provocation or attack... Right?
Are you an american?
