'Palestinians' threaten violence if US moves embassy to Jerusalem

One of the first things Donald Trump did after he was elected President was to promise to move the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Now that they realize that Trump is serious (and has named my college classmate Dave Friedman his ambassador to prove it), the 'Palestinians' are responding in the only way they know how. They are threatening violence.

Let's go to the videotape.



JPost reports that Trump is not backing down.

The Trump team has said that the US president-elect considers moving the embassy a "very big priority."

Throughout his campaign for the presidency, Trump repeatedly said he would move the US Embassy if elected – a political promise past US presidents have frequently made, yet has never been held.

Longstanding US policy is to treat the status of Jerusalem as an issue to be settled in final-status negotiations with the Palestinians.

Longstanding US policy has also been to veto all anti-Israel resolutions in the Security Council, and not to let them pass, let alone orchestrate their passage.  This is the best response of all to Obama's and Kerry's betrayal of Israel.

And if the 'Palestinians' kill each other in response, מה טוב.
