Jerusalem is Israel's capital, says Donald Trump

[BlasterBates]

Nothing to do with taking over their land then... even Jewish families were forcibly removed from their land by new European settlers, some found sanctuary in Syria.

The PLO isn't religious and includes Palestinian Christians.

The other myth is that Palestinians don't really exist, that they're actually gate crashers from Egypt, Syria and Jordan and should go back. This isn't true either.

What are you trying to sell to him?

Probably a pyramid, before the whole region is flattened.

Why speak on an issue you know nothing about? It just makes you look stupid.

The media has kept me well informed about the issues over the years.

[NotAllThere]

Nothing to do with taking over their land then...

Something to do with that, but more "taking great-grandad's land". Also, for some, something to do with the existence of Israel being viewed as a sign of the displeasure of Allah which will only be assuaged when Muslims once again dominate the area. Also to do with the relentless virulent propaganda they're exposed to.

...includes Palestinian Christians.

Yeah - and getting fewer due to persecution from Islamists and Jewish extremists.

Jerusalem is the de facto capital of Israel, even if not internationally de jure.

It told me Freddie Starr ate someone's hamster and that there is a London bus on the moon as well.

[LondonManc]

He's making the same point I am.

Well done Rita Irrelevant as well then.

Thanks for clearing up your very warped logic

Just a bit of respect for other people's opinions would be nice.

Opinions don't automatically deserve respect. I respect your right to have a different opinion but if the opinion is ridiculous then I'll call it out.

Ah, so more to do with the violent seizure of the land from the Jews many centuries earlier then?
