But he did not move the embassy. Those of is with relatives in Israel (and a brain) know how destructive Trump's announcement will be. And the press is getting the criticism of Trump's move all wrong, it is not a miscalculation. It is an intentionally hostile act to ensure that no peace process gets started. Trump and Netanyahu do not want peace because it threatens the status quo that serves their ends.
But, what happened to "the religion of peace"?
What the fu(k does that have to do with anything? If you look at their political manifestations, none of the three semitic religions have a good record with regard to peace, not Christianity, not Judaism, not Islam. The majority of common practitioners of each religion are peaceful. The problem is power, not religion itself. Those in power turn any religion into a sword, even Buddhism if you look at whats happening in Burma (Myanmar) right now. Those of you who want to single out Islam as an inherently violent system need to look in the mirror and consult a history book, a real history book, not those cave paintings put out by people like Samuel Huntington and Francis Fukuyama.
