The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) voted in overwhelming numbers to condemn President Trump's decision to stop pretending that Jerusalem is anything but the capital of Israel as it has been written in the Old Testament thousands of years ago.
The 128 member states of the UNGA voted to condemn Trump's move and only 7 other states joined the U.S. and Israel in voting against the resolution. Thirty-five countries abstained, which effectively supports the U.S.
The vote came soon after U.S. ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley, warned those states who support the resolution that there will be consequences, and reminded the General Assembly of the money we provide to the UN and many member states. Haley said the U.S. will be "taking names," a sort of military euphemism derived from "kicking ass and taking dog tags."
"We will remember it when we are called upon once again to make the world's largest contribution to the United Nations," Haley said. "And we will remember when so many countries come calling on us, as they so often do, to pay even more and to use our influence for their benefit."
But they called our bluff because they know we depend on these Islamic countries to help us deal with global terrorism and they believe we will back down on the promise.
Sadly, I believe they may be correct. I cannot imagine the U.S. cutting off all foreign aid to, say, Pakistan. They need the money to fund their military while doing what they can to aid the anti-Zionist cause.
The resolution was co-sponsored by anti-Semitic Turkey, chair of the summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, another anti-Semitic group, and chair of the Arab Group at the U.N.
They hate Israel because they hate Jews. It's there in their so-called "holy" book, the Koran.
The world has been pretending that Jerusalem is somehow not the capital of Israel when, in fact, it has been so since Israel was first discussed in the Old Testament, long before Islam was invented.
Both Democratic and Republican presidents have long said that Jerusalem is Israel's capital, but not one of them had the testicular fortitude to stand by their words until Trump came along. Like him or not, he is the only U.S. president with the courage of his convictions.
The spoils of war go to the victor and Israel was the victor against all surrounding nations who wished and failed, to destroy them.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Jerusalem is Israel's capital regardless of the outcome of the vote.
And Bibi is right.
