Keep in mind, the Arab League had the audacity to claim, the US moving of Our Embassy, to be an illegal move. Wrap your mind around that shit if you can, I know I can't.
"Today we open the United States embassy in Jerusalem, Israel," U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman said at the beginning of the inaugural ceremony, attended by a U.S. delegation from Washington and Israeli leaders.
While Trump, who vowed to move the embassy from Tel Aviv during his campaign, isn't attending, he'll address invitees to the designation ceremony via video conference, according to two U.S. officials. Trump's daughter and son-in-law, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan will be among the U.S. delegation.

"It is time to officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel," Trump declared on Dec. 6, saying that he hoped the move could spur renewed peace negotiations. But the decision angered much of the Middle East, including U.S. allies, and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas responded by breaking off all contact with the Trump administration.

The Arab Leagues comment are pure lip service. There is really no push back from Sunni Arab countries. Once again Trump has Trumped his opposition.
Progressivism, Marxism and all the rest; have always had an
incestuous affair w/deceit and dishonesty; as it defines who they are.
There is no clearer example of this than Palestine/Jerusalem whose
tenants through history have included Phoenicians, Assyrians,
Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines; to name a few.
And this is long before the Arabs migrated to the area.
The Palestinians are but another Muslim mob who originally settled
in Jordan, until tossed out for their assassination of the King Abdullah
in 1951. Their claims on Palestine has less validity than the claims of
global warming; another romantic attachment of the Left!!!

Exactly! There is no such thing as a Palestinian. These are the reprobates kicked out of the likes of S/A, Jordan tec, they are the thieves and beggars no one wanted around.
I love watching mobs rush the fence and threaten the lives of everybody on the other side.... and complain about being shot.
I do feel a little twinge of sadness for the cannon fodder though. Just like the soldiers of every communist country, they could either get shot in the face, or in the back for trying to save their faces.
But eventually, hopefully they figure out how to GTFO and not be the cannon fodder. Surely these idiots can sneak out some other time, when Hamas isn't on duty herding them to the fence.
This is Like a Japanese Imperial Army Banzai attack. The IDF and showing incredible restraint not machine gunning them down in rows.
I wonder if any other countries will follow suit.

Mrs. Sup asked me a question about the Palestinians last night. My answer was there has never been a Palestine. They are just another Arab tribal group that nobody wants anything to do with. And we should not forget that piece of land now called Israel was in the hands of the British who willed it to the state of Israel when the nation was formed.

I thought it was purchased by Israel? You're right, the Arabs pretty much did to these people what the left does to blacks, moved them to depressed areas and keep them on the plantation and give them just enough sustenance to exist, then blamed everyone else for their plight.
Iran, Stria, Russia, and Hamas have fueled this mess for decades, and Trump just closed that door and said look to your Arab kin, the Jewish State is done dealing with you people.
Ya gotta love it, one move, Trumped all former political deals. In the short term, it's like setting a dislocated shoulder, painful as Hell, but the pain recedes quickly and everything returns to normal.

From what I can see the Palestinians enjoy causing one's own death.

Have you looked at black on black crime lately? Yeah, I see a definite parallel connection here, where leftists are in charge of people's lives.
Ya know, I had never put the two together before, but the end result is identical.

It started with Plan Parenthood by the Dems and the black on black has just escalated it more and more.

I probaly used the wrong term of "willed". It is more appropriate to say Britain made the land available. I am not sure of any financial transactions.

I won't dig it up, but I seem to recall the Jews paid for the land in full and made some really nice gestures to the people in the area to improve their lot in life.
The surrounding land referred to as Palestine was nothing but complete wasteland, the rest if history.

Essentially correct, Supe; but permit me to share a segment of history
for perspective.
By 1917, the third year of the catastrophic Great War, serious unrest
was growing in Great Britain, as suppressed casualty figures began to
surface in the newspapers.
The Asquith Govt was voted down and replaced by the Liberals, headed
by Lloyd George, who formed a coalition w/the Tories.
British Jewry, led by Lord Rothschild, had traditionally been staunch
Conservative voters but began to waver as the War raged on.
So Lloyd George instructed his Foreign Secretary, Arthur Balfour to inform
Rothschild that Britain would support a permanent homeland for the Jewish
people in biblical Judea; then occupied by the Ottoman Empire.
This was the Balfour Declaration and the catalyst for the return of the Jews
to their homeland.
