In Blow to Trump and Netanyahu, UN Rejects U.S. Recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's Capital

An overwhelming majority of 128 member states voted in favor of the resolution, with only 9 voting against and 35 abstaining; Netanyahu says Israel 'completely rejects preposterous' decision.

In a major diplomatic blow to Israel and U.S. President Donald Trump, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution rejecting the American recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital, with 128 member states voting in favor of the resolution and a mere nine voting against it.

Among the countries that voted in favor of the resolution are India, Russia and China, all countries Netanyahu has touted as allies recently. However, some countries surprised Israel by breaking the consesus at the UN, such as Hungary, the Czech Republic, Latvia, Romania, Croatia and Poland.

"Israel completely rejects this preposterous resolution," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said minutes after the results were announced.

And I'm sure they will need their military to back that veto up.

Can't wait to see how they manage two significant conflicts now.

I keep telling everyone .... All NATO member countries and associate members (including Israel) are setting the stage to walk away from the United Nations.

Israel and Saudi Arabia will become the Middle East NATO. Palestinians will be forcibly removed from Palestine and into The Golan Heights. Israel and Saudi Arabia will control the Persian Gulf with the complete takeover of Bahrain, Qatar and Yemen, which will prevent Iran from shipping oil through the Gulf. Lebanon will be destroyed in order to prevent Iran from having access to the Mediterranean to sell its oil as well.

Western NATO members will attempt to rule the world rather than the United Nations.

The West will not fund the United Nations. The United Nations building itself is ancient and the building infrastructure is not equipped with modern facilities and will need to be rebuilt. The new headquarters will be constructed in Shanghai China.

You keep telling .. but your fore-telling will be proved wrong to your disappointment. The contrary will be correct, and no Zionists will remain in Palestine.

I think God will take revenge on the USA, in the coming days, on account of their supporting the Zionists: the wrong-doers and transgressors, and on account of their deliberate trespassing the rights of the Palestinians and Muslims.

I find this aya in the Quran:

Quran 43: 25, which means:
(So We exacted retribution against them m [and We destroyed them], then see [Mohammed] what terminal end was of those that denied [the messengers] n)
.........................................................

25 m i.e. the deniers.

25 n Was it anything else than termination and destruction?

Canada abstained. The Palestinians originally thought they would support the U.S. by voting against the motion.

This was a completely avoidable embarrassment for the U.S.. There was no upside to recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital. It simply discredited the U.S. role as an honest broker in the peace process. It really did nothing to furthur Israeli security, or, diminish the national aspirations of the Palestinians.

Jerusalem will only be universally recognized as Israeli Capital when it is deemed to be an international city and capital of both the Palestine and Israel.

The only possible retaliation for Trump will be to withhold UN operating funds.. which was going to happen regardless.

If so, I can say, the Zionists plan is to move the Palestinians to Jordan or ? Iraq may be but not to Golan.
The Zionists tyranny has exceeded the limit, truly, and their end has approached to rid the humanity of their evil .. for ever ... Insha Allah.

Now that you're in it, sure.

It's just another one of your nazi threads.

BTW... The US recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The UN is free the have as many temper tantrums as they wish. The promise has been kept.

Trump simply followed through on the Jerusalem Embassy Act which was passed by Congress in '95 calling for the relocation of the US embassy by 1999. The lack of motivation and will of past administrations and lack of intestinal fortitude of past leaders in following thorough on a congressional policy is stunning.

That said, I'm not necessarily disagreeing with the opinion that Israel has to be recognized as an international city. Is there any reason why relocating an embassy should prevent that from happening?

Facts on the ground says that will never happen.
Jerusalem is Israel.
Period.
That will only change when Israel ceases to exist.
