Yes, runner, we know you're in favour of sexual assault. Now run along, will you?

All the left whingers on the site are saying that the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel has killed the peace process. Well considering that the "peace process" has been in a vegetative coma for 2 decades, perhaps a shock to the heart is required to get it going.

The unelected so called Palestinian representatives in the PLO and Hamas have cushy jobs and are extremely wealthy having siphoned off $bns of aid into their own accounts. Why would they want to change the status quo?

"East Jerusalem, the proclaimed capital of Palestine, is administered as part of the Jerusalem District of Israel, but is claimed by Palestine as part of the Jerusalem Governorate."
In the rule-book of Wars ( an Olympic sport like Skate-Board and Surf) you win when you take the capital with at least 10 players and deny access to competing nukes and stones. It's slightly unusual for another team such as B-grade US Megatons to invade the field but all's fair in Russian democracy. Trump will drain the Governorate swamp , bomb Pyongyang and shift goal-posts.

Typical loudmouth, I asserted a few weeks ago:

"Of course, Jerusalem should ultimately be recognised as the capital of Israel, but timing is crucial - now is entirely inappropriate. Maybe in forty years. Expect many, many violent reactions across the Muslim world tomorrow night. Perhaps a thousand killed in Pakistan alone, including many innocent Shi'ites, Sufis, Bahai's and Christians - what great fun ! "

Boy, did I get that wrong: Hardly any violent reactions across the Muslim world, not even in Pakistan, the Festival State for Violent Reactions. And so far, not a thousand killed in Palestine within days but [only?] six or so within a month. In the 'Australian', it is asserted that Iran is now looked on as a much greater threat to Sunni Islam and the Arab world than Israel is.

But I don't believe that Salafism has given up its struggle [jihad] against the West, merely put it back for a while. The front-line now, perhaps, runs from the Straits of Hormuz through Qatar, Bahrain, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. One complication for the implicit alliance between Salafism and the western 'Left' is that some of the 'Left's' darlings are on the other side, Assad for example, and Iran itself (after all, they're anti-American, therefore .... )

Curiouser and curiouser .....

Loudmouth

I see that Guatemala is now moving its embassy to Jerusalem, and the US has cut its contribution to the UN by about $300m in retaliation for the silly vote by the General Assembly.
