THE IMPORTANCE OF US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S VISIT TO THE WAILING WALL!
When
US President Donald Trump visited the Western Wall sporting a kippa
(yarmulka), it was a clear affirmation that the site is as the Jews say -
Judaism's holiest shrine.
And,
as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu subsequently pointed out, that was
a clear repudiation of the position recently taken by the United
Nations.
During
a Knesset session marking the 50th anniversary of Israel's liberation
of the eastern side of Jerusalem, including the Western Wall, Netanyahu
stated:
Trump's visit "destroyed UNESCO's propaganda and lies."
Netanyahu further insisted that with the city now reunited under Jewish rule, it will never again be divided.
"The Temple Mount and the Western Wall will forever remain under Israeli sovereignty," said the Israeli leader.
What that means for Trump's new Mideast peace push is yet to be seen.
Until
now, the Palestinian leadership has categorically refused to accept any
agreement that doesn't include Israel's surrender of eastern Jerusalem
and the Temple Mount.
Will the "Trump Effect" be enough to make the Palestinians back down?
WILL PRESIDENT TRUMP'S VISIT TO ISRAEL HAVE ANY AFFECT UPON THE PEACE PROCESS?
President Trump landed in Israel this past week, and immediately made history.
Remember when one of Barack Obama's first trips was to the Middle East, to give that ridiculous speech about Islam in Cairo?
Do you also remember how he very conspicuously REFUSED to visit Israel during that same trip?
Well, Trump did the opposite.
He made a point of including Israel in his first trip abroad. In fact, he is the first US President to do so.
Not only that, Trump is in Israel as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Jerusalem from Arab forces.
With a man as calculating as Trump, that's no coincidence!
