Donald Trump is legitimately mentally retarded.

2018-01-02 at 10:55 PM UTCThis whole Jerusalem situation literally has the potential to unravel the entire global US hegemony... In one fell swoop from a fucktard who apparently doesn't grasp anything about geopolitics.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

2018-01-03 at 12:15 AM UTCYou realize recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is nothing new right? Past presidents, including Obama, promised to do just that. Trump is simply the first one to follow through.

There's no such thing as a promise or a friend in geopolitics. There are only permanent national interests. For the US, Israel is one, but the Muslim world is a far bigger one. The fallout with regards to Pakistan and the Arab nations that we're seeing now was 100% predictable and explicitly what we don't want to happen, because their subsequent results are also pretty predictable, and undesirable.
The point of such a commitment is to serve as a holding pattern, so we can maintain both permanent national interests. -

Doesn't matter. Up until now (since Kissinger) the US has positioned itself as a mediator or arbiter in the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs. By recognising Jerusalem as solely Israeli, they've completely denied one of the core points being 'negotiated' - ie. which parts of Jerusalem (or Al-Quds as the Muslims call it) fall under each side's control.
The US never sincerely took the Arabs' interests seriously and always sided with Israel, which is the main reason why negotiations consistently fail... Which is why this is a good thing for the rest of the world - nobody can argue that the US is impartial anymore, and virtually all Islamic countries (including US vassals like KSA and Jordan) made a unanimous statement that they no longer consider the US as part of the 'peace process'.
Essentially, the two-state solution is dead and the only two outcomes are full and equal citizenship for Palestinians (lol) or open war. Again. -
