U.S. TO BOYCOTT JERUSALEM DAY

I post this article knowing that many will disagree with its contents and with the opinions I will express. Here's the article:

Anger over the decision by foreign governments to boycott events
marking the 40th anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem showed no sign of
subsiding Sunday evening, with Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni voicing her own
consternation about the issue.

"Even if the world hasn't yet recognized a united Jerusalem, the connection between Israel and Jerusalem is inseparable," the foreign minister said. "It is not dependant on the position of non-Jewish nations.

"It is our responsibility to continue to strengthen the connection
between the Jewish people and the city," Livni continued. "And at the same time,
to impress this fact on the international community."

Earlier Sunday, Jerusalem Mayor Uri Lupolianski blasted foreign
governments for their decision.

"Anyone who doesn't recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the state of Israel does not recognize the state of Israel," Lupolianski said in a statement.

He added that Israel needed to send out an unequivocal message to
the world, and not capitulate on this issue. "Israel is the only country
in the world that allows other countries to boycott its capital and not [locate] their embassies in the city," he added.

The unusually harsh remarks from the haredi mayor comes after US
and EU ambassadors declined to attend a VIP event at the Knesset marking the
40th anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem.

Lupolianski warns Jerusalem could fall into Hamas
hands

Sources close to US Ambassador Richard Jones said Sunday that Jones
would not be participating in Monday's Jerusalem Day ceremony at the Knesset. It
was not yet clear whether his decision to absent himself, which followed a
similar decision by the EU, was politically motivated.

In an address in Jerusalem last year, former US ambassador to
Israel Martin Indyk said that no US president would move the US Embassy to
Jerusalem except as part of a final peace agreement with the Palestinians, and,
repeat preelection pledges notwithstanding, it was unrealistic to expect such a
move.

Jerusalem Mayor Uri Lupolianski warned Sunday of a demographic collapse that could cause the capital to lose its Jewish majority and transfer the city into the hands of Hamas.

And, that is the reason I support the goal of Israel to unite Jersusalem as the Capitol of their nation.

Let's get this straight: When the Palestinians voted for Hamas they voted for genocide. The Hamas Charter clearly calls for death to the Jews, and for the replacement of the state of Israel with a Muslim state ruled under Sharia law.

I used to support a two-state solution. I can no longer in good conscience do so. If I were to cast my support behind the two-state solution, I would be empowering Hamas to enact its genocide.

To cast your support behind Hamas is the equivalent of voting for the genocide of the Jews in Israel.
