SINCE BOMBER TRUMP'S JERUSALEM AND EMBASSY MOVE DECISIONS MORE ON BOTH SIDES SEE WAR AS THE ONLY SOLUTION

Congratulations to President Bomber Trump!

His recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and his decision to move the US embassy to Jerusalem has convinced more on both sides of the Israel-Palestine conflict that war is the only way to solve the problem.

But I think he'll be happy about that...because more war means more weapons sales...which means more jobs, jobs, jobs.

SAD!

Support for armed struggle has almost doubled among Palestinians in the last six months, while Israeli backing for a decisive military offensive to end the conflict increased during the same period by almost 60 percent, according to a poll published Thursday that said the rise was most likely linked to US President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The survey also found that most Israeli Jews and most Palestinians no longer believe the two-state solution is a possible way to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The findings are detailed in Palestinian-Israeli Pulse, a joint poll published by the Tami Steinmetz Center for Peace Research (TSC), Tel Aviv University and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research in Ramallah.

The poll, published every six months, was conducted in December 2017, after Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem. The declaration angered Palestinians and led their leadership to boycott the Trump administration ever since.

“Palestinian attitudes become more pessimistic in general and support for militancy rose following US President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital,” said the pollsters in a press release summarizing their findings.
