How is this kind of reasoning that supports a Zionist, apartheid entity in order to fulfill prophesy different frm that of ISIS or d Boko boys who claim to kill innocent people & illegally annex land as fulfillment of of d will of their God?.
A real Christian can never support d Zionist, racist nation of Israel which according to Bishop Desmond Tutu is worse than apartheid south Africa. Just d other day, d Pope joined d rest of d civilized world to condemn trump's action which has nothing to do wit Christianity but wit d illegal occupation of indigenous Palestinian land by Zionist settlers.

Breaking News: UN Votes Unanimously To Rejects Trump's Decision On Recognition Of Jerusalem As Israel's Capitall

The United Nation (UN) General Assembly has decisively backed a resolution effectively calling on the US to withdraw its recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The text says that any decisions regarding the status of the city are "null and void" and must be cancelled.

According BBC News, the non-binding resolution was approved by 128 states, with 35 abstaining and nine others voting against. It came after US President Donald Trump threatened to cut financial aid to those who backed the resolution.

Before the vote, the Palestinian foreign minister urged member states to reject "blackmail and intimidation".

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meanwhile said it would reject the anticipated result "outright" and dismissed the UN as a "house of lies".

What is so contentious about Jerusalem's status?

The status of Jerusalem goes to the heart of Israel's conflict with the Palestinians. Israel occupied the east of the city in the 1967 Middle East war and regards the entire city as its indivisible capital. The text put forward by Turkey and Yemen does not mention the US, but expresses "deep regret at recent decisions concerning the status of Jerusalem".

It also says

"any decisions and actions which purport to have altered the character, status or demographic composition of the Holy City of Jerusalem have no legal effect, are null and void and must be rescinded in compliance with relevant resolutions of the Security Council".

Even if we skip the aid ssue, are we going to skip the world bank?

A lot of people need American money.

Remember we derecognized Taiwans status when we needed Chinese money

The truth is that the US had it's tentacles far and wide. If you doubt me, remember the AU vote on Libya.

We are still silently suffering for our homosexuality law, as the US won't sell us weapons.

Anybody who neglects the US does so at his own peril.

Nobody fights with Isreal and win, It is written. USA and Israel are allies, Lucky for them. Looking like the third world war already.

His only 4% of Isreal population dat ar christians.The remaining 96% is divided between Judaism and Muslims. In other word Judaism does not believe in Jesus Christ. Dey believe dat he is a very poor false Prophet. The Muslim believe dat Jesus is a prophet but he is not the son of God. So I wonder why Christians are so belt in defending Isreal when she does not even believe in the doctrine of ur So called Jesus Christ.

Eke40seven:

What dumb assertions about "Israelites' and 'Isrealis'. Do you ever check the etymology to look at the evolution of the word? Do you know that the suffix, "lites" was used in the older English language to describe people of a particular land in General especially in the Bible? Like the Edomites, Moabites, etc, a pattern which changed for the modern day description of the people of Israel?
Nigerians make so many dumb assertions on what things do neither know a hoot nor research about.

d right decision
While Trump, the "p*ssy grabber" is just playing politics by energizing his political base of Evangelicals in d USA, Netanyahu is a dangerous & dishonest right wing zionist extremist who does not believe in peace. He had to resign his appointment as finance Minister in protest to Sharon's giving back of Gaza to d Palestinians in furtherance of d 2-state solution & peace.

As an enlightened Christian, i realize dat d Israel to whom God gave d land is not the same nation dat we call Israel today. God gave the land to a people united to him by a solemn covenant ( Ex. 19-20 ). The present state of Israel is a state that does not recognize d God of d Bible as its supreme Lord. These unbelieving Jews hav been broken off frm dis covenant for in their unbelief they regard Christianity as idolatry & Jesus as a false prophet who came to turn humanity away frm God.

JimaeChinko:




Easy on the lies...

You are not a Christian...

okpor2:
non binding resolution? hope you people understand this? So long as US vetoed the decision at the security council nothing happens again

nextstep:


The real issue is that Israel did not exist as a country until 1948... so it's hard to claim Jerusalem was a capital.
In Biblical times, sure, but that was over 2000 years ago.

It's like somebody whose ancestors owned the land your grandfather bought and gave to you, now dragging you to court because you're squatting on his property. Who is right? You, the new owner? Or the ancient ones? Keep in mind that there's no record of sale going back to trace things all the way, but he has oral and written records placing his ancestors the general area of your land...

Indeed, is Palestine a country? A geographical region ?

This clearly shows a paradigm shift within the international power matrix.






By the way, threads like this usually do not have much comments, as most kids who have lately flooded Nairaland will find it difficult discerning the discourse

Ayomideen:


Dude,that statement is referring to Israel

Israel has been forcefully claiming lands belonging to Palestinians for many many years

Rexgodwin:
The right thing must be done no matter who is offended. If recognising Jerusalem as the capital of Israel could cause more serious conflict between Israel and Palestine, why going ahead with it? It is nonsensical to have even imagine supporting something that can cause trouble. It is ungodly, it is inhuman and it is immoral. Nobody is afraid of America. They cannot exist in isolation. The importance of their existence is because others exist too. Without that, their existence is null and void. Thank you.

kygo:
that's a good news..making jerusalem the capital would have led to some horrible war everyone would regret...

Trump won't be US President for life. He will only be there for 4 years. After that it is back to sense and normalcy again.
