Whether you believe in America supporting Israel or not, one truth is undeniable…

If Palestinians put down their weapons, there would be peace…

…if Israelis put down their weapons…there would be genocide…

This fiasco over the US State Dept not recognizing Jerusalem as being part of Israel is patently ridiculous, for several reasons…the above certainty being one of them.

Second, the United States recognizes Israel as a nation, and as an ally. To refuse any acknowledgment that their most holy city is in Israel is an insult to that alliance.

Refusing that status by claiming it would harm a Middle East peace process is idiocy of the highest magnitude. It hasn’t stopped terror attacks…they’ve increased in ferocity.

NOT recognizing Jerusalem as being part of Israel actually rewards terrorists, and terrorism, and emboldens terror groups to step up their lethal acts against that nation.

Even if you don’t support Israel, facts must be acknowledged. It bears repeating…

If Palestinians put down their weapons, Peace would result…

If Israelis put down their weapons, Genocide would result.

Just be honest. Which do you prefer?
