Op-ed:
Jerusalem...Israel's Foundation of Truth
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

"Israel is a sovereign nation, with the right like every other sovereign nation, to determine its own capital."
- President Trump's video address to those at the U.S. Embassy opening ceremony in Jerusalem

Three thousand years ago the great Jewish King David declared Jerusalem as Israel's capital... Israel...the land God Our Father gave to the Jewish people...His chosen people. And on Tuesday, May 14th at around 9am EST...a date and time that coincides with the 70th anniversary of Israel’s Declaration of Independence...President Donald J. Trump had these United States honor both God's will and his personal promise made...a promise made by past presidents but a promise never kept...as Jerusalem officially became the location of the United States Embassy in Israel.

After last December's announcement that the U.S. Embassy would be moving from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem... keeping yet another campaign promise made...the opening ceremony was attended by Trump administration officials including Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, various senators and representatives, as well as White House adviser and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner and adviser and daughter Ivanka Trump, who unveiled the embassy's new plaque.

"Remember this moment. This is history. President Trump, by recognizing history, you have made history. We have no better friends in the world. You stand for Israel and you stand for Jerusalem." So said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

And while this was truly a glorious and symbolic day where Israeli and American friendship was forever sealed, it was also a day that saw deliberate and calculatingly planned violence happening against the Jewish State...violence carried out by Palestinians aligned with the militant group Hamas...violence being orchestrated and financed solely by Iran.

But it goes further than simple violence as the hardline anti-Israel group, the Iranian Justice Seeker Student Movement, issued a statement that, “Whoever bombs the embassy’s building will receive a $100,000 award. It is necessary to mention that the steps by Trump to transfer the US Embassy to Holy Qods [Jerusalem] has led to the anger and hatred of Muslims and liberators throughout the world.”

Perhaps that $100,000 will be from part of the dollars the traitor Barack HUSSEIN Obama gave to the mullahs...no perhaps about it.

And with said violence once again being the Palestinians order of the day came many untruths...untruths reported as fact by a media so blatantly not in Israel's corner. And while claiming that their anger was now being fueled by the embassy move alone, the anything but peaceful protesters acted like savages as they set tires on fire which sent plumes of choking black smoke up into the air; as they hurled firebombs, threw rocks and fired shots at Israeli troops manning the Israeli side of the Gaza border; while some even tried to tear down, push their way through and/or place bombs along the wire fence delineating and separating the two sides.

But with Israel having every right to defend herself against the 40,000 Palestinians who took part in violent demonstrations at 13 different locations along the fence, Israeli soldiers retaliated and shot and killed 58 of them along with 'supposedly' wounding more than a thousand others in what was called the deadliest protests against Israeli occupation in years...occupation of lands the Palestinians had no right to occupy in the first place...occupation of lands that if truth be told belong to Israel alone for only Israel has been forced to turn over lands they rightfully captured in war.

And of course the media paints the violence and deaths as being all Israel's fault, leading White House Deputy Press Secretary Raj Shah to issue a statement that basically absolved Israel of all blame. Saying that, “The responsibility for these tragic deaths rests solely with Hamas,” Shah added that, “Their cynical exploitation of these issues is what is leading to these deaths.”

“The Gaza violence is not over our embassy location, it comes from those who reject the existence of Israel in any location.” So said U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley as she defended Israel against mounting international criticism of its response to the violent demonstrations at the Gaza border.

And with said brouhaha spilling over into a Tuesday emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council, Palestinian envoy Riyad Mansour accused Israel of not only “a war crime” but of “crimes against humanity” in regards to what he called the “odious massacre committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip.” But Ambassador Haley set the record straight by explaining that, “By killing fewer than 100 Hamas terror group operatives who attempted to bomb and break through the border in order to massacre Israeli citizens in border communities, Israeli Defense Forces showed considerable restraint, considering that there were tens of thousands of violent muslim rioters posing as "peaceful" protesters.”

And with those words Ambassador Haley let the world known that these were anything but peaceful protesters and that “Hamas is pleased with the results from yesterday.”

“These were violent muslim rioters...many of them were armed...many of them were enemy combatants”... as per Israeli envoy Danny Dannon...muslim rioters committing “crimes against humanity”...muslim rioters that must be called to task...muslim rioters otherwise known as but one arm of Iran's many proxy armies. Iran...the true destabilizing force in the entirety of the Middle East.

“I ask my colleagues here in the Security Council, who among us would accept this type of activity on your border? No one would.” So said Ambassador Haley who walked out of the chamber after Riyad Mansour proposed a resolution in regards to an “independent review” of the “incident in Gaza”...a resolution Haley vetoed.

                                                                                                                                                 So what was our response to all the Hamas instigated Palestinian uncalled for violence... violence that even Senior Hamas Official Mahmoud Al-Zahhar admitted was “not peaceful resistance...it is supported by our weapons...it is growing and developing. That’s clear.” As per Department of State requests due to what Defense Department spokesman Maj. Adrian Rankine-Galloway called the “heightened threat environment” posed to American diplomats in the region, Marine Corps security forces were increased at American embassies in both Turkey and Jordan, as well as at the former embassy site in Tel Aviv and other diplomatic installations in the Middle East.

Simply, there will be no Benghazi's on President Trump's watch.

Now as for the world's response to the actual embassy move, Turkey announced that it was recalling its ambassador to Washington in protest, and the 57-nation Organization of Islamic Cooperation...the world’s largest muslim organization...denounced the U.S. embassy move as “an attack on the historical, legal, natural and national rights of the Palestinian people”...as if there actually are a Palestinian people...which there are not...and which Benjamin Netanyahu rightfully calls “a fictional nationality.”

In fact, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who has boycotted peace talks Jared Kushner was trying to mediate, as if on teleprompted cue said the embassy move amounted to “an illegal settlement” and vowed not to accept any peace deals proposed by the Trump administration...as if he would accept any deal short of Israel's total demise.

But what of our allies Great Britain, Germany and France...the three musketeers who stabbed us in the back over the Iranian nuclear deal...where do they stand in all this? Actually, nothing has changed since President Trump's announcement last December. Boris Johnson, the British Foreign Secretary, continued to reiterate what Teresa May said when Trump first spoke of the move that, “such a move could further disrupt efforts to reach peace in the region.” As if the Palestinians really wanted peace...they do not.

Remember when German Chancellor Angela Merkel...the woman who wants Iran to finish off what Hitler started... said that the “German government does not support this position, because the status of Jerusalem is to be resolved in the framework of a two-state solution”...well nothing has changed there either nor has it for French President Emmanuel Macron who said that moving our embassy is “a regrettable decision that France does not approve of and goes against international law and all the resolutions of the U.N. Security Council”...but pray tell how does moving an embassy...moving a building...violate anything especially when done by a sovereign nation with permission from the other sovereign nation involved.

So while our allies are turning their backs on us and only aligning with us when it's convenient for them to do so...what of the Arab world?

Much of the Arab world was on the surface quite shocked when President Trump announced the now come to fruition embassy move, in fact, the Palestinians held a general strike in protest...anything not to work. And while thousands in Turkey, Lebanon, Morocco and elsewhere in the Arab world joined their Palestinian brethren in protest, their protests were short-lived and for the most part peaceful...save for Iran of course. A quite unexpected turn of events as several key Arab leaders turned their backs on the Palestinians whining as reality set in that for them and their countries it was way more advantageous to forge ties with Israel instead.

Now seeing the Palestinians as the regions troublemakers not Israel, as well as their having their own issues with Iran, Egypt for one secretly allowed Israel to carry out drone strikes against militant groups in the Sinai peninsula while Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman not too long ago said, “It’s about time the Palestinians take the proposals and agree to come to the negotiations table or shut up and stop complaining” adding that Israel had the right to “their own land.”

And last week, right after President Trump rightfully withdrew the U.S. from the Iran nuclear deal and Iran fired missiles into Israel, Bahrain’s foreign minister tweeted that Israel has the right to defend itself in the face of Iranian aggression...a move that possibly indicates that more moderate Arab leaders fear the growing threat posed by Iran over petty regional disagreements...disagreements including President Trump's moving our embassy to Jerusalem.

And so while both allies and foes are claiming that the Palestinian deaths are proof that President Trump should not have moved the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, I say kudos to him for doing so. And I also say kudos to Prime Minister Netanyahu for calling on other countries to follow Trump's example and relocate their embassies to Jerusalem, calling it "the right thing to do." Saying that moving their embassies to Jerusalem "advances peace" because peace is based on the foundations of truth, Netanyahu has let the world know that "the truth is that not only has Jerusalem been the capital of the Jewish people for millennia and our state for decades, but the truth is that under any peace deal Jerusalem will remain Israel’s capital."

And to that I say "amen."
