NEW YORK – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump formally announced that if he is elected, the United States will recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capitol city.
“I have said on numerous occasions that in a Trump Administration, the United States will recognize Jerusalem as the one true capital of Israel,” Mr. Trump said in a statement Thursday.
“The United Nations’ attempt to disconnect the State of Israel from Jerusalem is a one-sided attempt to ignore Israel’s 3,000-year bond to its capital city, and is further evidence of the enormous anti-Israel bias of the UN. Jerusalem is the enduring capital of the Jewish People and the overwhelming majority of Congress has voted to recognize Jerusalem as just that. Further, the decision by the Obama Administration to strike the word ‘Israel’ after the word ‘Jerusalem’ in the President’s prepared text was a capitulation to Israel’s enemies, and a posthumous embarrassment to Shimon Peres, whose memory the President was attempting to honor. In a Trump Administration, Israel will have a true, loyal and lasting friend in the United States of America.”
Currently, Israel claims Jerusalem as its capitol city, but the city is run by Palestine, which claims that Israel illegally occupies half of the city along with other disputed territories. Much of the Arab world rejects Israel’s claim to the city.

Jesus gets to pick choose the name and place of the Holy City. Not Trump.
I voted for Trump to hasten the revolution, not to appease the Christian vote, like he’s doing here.
The 2 fly baits will give you anything as long as you pay for it and for the people who cannot pay for it. Politics 101 – National media says -OBE and the Hag both smell really bad like satanic sulfur?
Right again President TRUMP – The corruption involving the past administrations/mafia loved yes sar air a fat and his terrorist organization.
Trump does hate brown people, so this stance is not surprising
Trump doesn’t hate brown people, only Dumb Asses like you.
Doesn’t change the fact that you are still a dumb ass and not wanted here. You don’t live here so stay the hell out of our business.
LVS, glad to see you up & about on this fine day.
A new pair of clean Depends, gum some breakfast mush, put your teeth in, and you are ready to go there you old coot.
What’s on your agenda today?
Bingo?
Crossword puzzle (one syllable words only)?
Work on more stupid shit to say?
You go for it old geezer, time is limited.
I think I will spend my day looking for big mouth trolls and kick their ass when I find them. You won’t be hard to find or difficult to whip.
Bwahaaa….LVS you feeble old coot, you couldn’t kick tweety bird’s ass.
Why don’t you just shuffle on over to your wife’s purse, open it slowly, and say hello to your balls.
Put your name on here chickenshit and find out if I can kick your ass.
If it was brown, wearing a skirt and packin a p***y The Donald would be all over it!
You should feel right at home with 3rd graders. That is your level of intelligence.
Israel is fortunate to have such a strong leader. Obama, with his suicidal appeasement of radical Islam, is not fit to carry Ben’s luggage.
Ben’s a 33rd degree free mason, do you understand what that means, if not you need to research that, also all of these leaders are from the 13 royal bloodlines they are all related, all of them, they are selected not elected.
YOU research it, mysterious one. I have REAL things to do.
