    I sourced that they do not recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
    They only do west Jerusalem. So your previous claim is wrong.

    You have yet to comment that planning to build the One World Trade Center took 3 years after they already had a design.

    Oh well.....so I was wrong. I can't be perfect otherwise they would take away my human card.

    So what, it took them 3 years. Politics was involved. Like I said from the beginning. Nothing but excuses as it can be done Right as soon as winter is over. Getting started Right away. We already have ground and really they should consider some underground areas.

    Which your comments about building something all new from the ground up, is like that leftist concept. Nothing exceeds like excess.

    It wasn't political. It reads on wikipedia:
    However, construction was delayed until 2006 due to disputes over money, security, and design.

    And so there it took 3 years of designing and planning. Where you think it's just "just add some rooms". lol

    Yeah security wasn't political between the Feds and State. :roll: Try again.

    Its not just adding some rooms. Like I mentioned you don't know much about building ****. Or adding onto existing structures.

    And btw to build structures underground wouldn't be just adding rooms. DUH!

    It aint. Security is security. And having an embassy in Israel,... that sounds like it has a sky high security concern.
    And here you are ranting like it's like adding a room to a house.
    While I showed you planning takes years with these kinds of buildings.
    And you have not proven me wrong.

    Well as the UN rejects Trumps argument. The US took the step that Trump wanted. Then they were told we remember. Now Trump has cut some funding. Haley is giving out a party and those that voted in this non-binding resolution against the US. Aren't invited.

    So hows that working out for the UN?

    The UN got paid billions to humiliate the US and to set Trump in it's rightful place. And that is among of a bunch of nobody tiny island nations, a terrorist state and freaking Guatemala. Is this how the US accomplishes the greatness the Dotard promised them? lol

    And to be able to "celebrate" to be disrespected by all your friendly European states, they had to invite nations who didn't bother to show up and/or remained neutral, which is very far away from support the US.

    It did.....that's funny. The UN cut its budget by 200 million Right before Trump just took another 250 million away.

    Oh and it isn't causing Trump any loss of sleep as he knows there isn't anything they can do to stop us from putting our Embassy where we want it.

    Plans are already drawn up and the location has been picked out long ago.
    There is an entire Office in the Dept of State dedicated to the business of building and maintaining diplomatic buildings abroad.

    Yes, a nonbinding recommendation they can stuff.

    Trump train runs through Jerusalem

    "The Kotel [Western Wall] is the holiest place for the Jewish people, and I decided to call the train station that leads to it after President Trump." -- Israel Transportation Minister Israel Katz.

    [​IMG]

    From Haaretz:
    The train station is being planned for the Jewish Quarter in Jerusalem's Old City. Katz said he decided to honor Trump in this way following the president's decision early this month to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and to ultimately move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv.This is the new railway line Israel is building between two cities.

    From the Guardian
    :
    The Tel Aviv-Jerusalem rail project is expected to cost about $1.8bn and is estimated to cut travel time to 28 minutes, down from 78 minutes on the old line built during the days of the Ottoman empire.Jerusalem’s main station is currently located on the southern outskirts of the city, while the old main train station near the city center – long out of use – has been converted into an area of bars and restaurants.Katz’s office said the minister advanced the plan in a recent meeting with Israel Railways executives and fast-tracked it in the planning committees.

    Trump is simply the best president since Reagan -- and Trump has another seven years to go.

    To be sure, Reagan faced greater challenges without Republican control of the House (or the Senate in his final two years).

    But Trump has the potential to top him.

    Yup.

    Already cut the UN by $300M and now Pakistan, another country who thought it was great idea to stick their finger in our eye on the UN vote:

    US Suspends Close to a Billion Dollars of Aid to Pakistan

    Well, it's at least nine hundred million; they haven't figured out the final tally to be suspended. So it could be close to a billion. Or even a bit more.

    The United States said on Thursday it was suspending at least $900 million in security assistance to Pakistan until it takes action against the Afghan Taliban and the Haqqani network militant groups.

    The U.S. State Department announced the decision, saying it reflected the Trump administration's frustration that Pakistan has not done more against the two groups that Washington says use sanctuaries in Pakistan to launch attacks in neighboring Afghanistan that have killed U.S., Afghan and other forces.

    The department declined to say exactly how much aid would be suspended, saying the numbers were still being calculated and included funding from both the State and Defense departments.
