Judea/Samaria (West Bank) settlements not illegal, undoing Obama’s historic antisemitic policy shift

31

President Trump has done it again. This decision is a stunning rebuke of Obama’s anti-Jewish policies and the  antisemitic ruling by the European Court of Justice to label Jewish products from Judeau and Sumeria.

It is the perfect response to UN Security Council Resolution 2334 (which President Obama allowed to pass) calling “settlement” activity a “flagrant violation” of international law and with “no legal validity”.

This decision is long overdue. Denying Jewish people the right to live in their ancestral homeland is immoral. It will also not bring about peace. Instead, it will encourage more terror attacks and incitement from the Palestinian Authority.

President Trump is truly the GOAT, and a remarkable human being. Any Jewish American who votes for Trump’s opponent in 2020 is nuts. #Trump2020

West Bank settlements not illegal, US decides in historic US policy shift

It was not immediately clear how the new policy would impact the future roll out of the Trump peace plan.

By Jerusalem Post, November 18, 2019:

In a historic reversal of US policy, the Trump administration is set to announce on Monday that it does not view Israeli settlements in the West Bank as illegal. The policy change is scheduled to be formalized in an official address by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Washington.

The decision, The Jerusalem Post has learned, came after a year-long review conducted by the State Department’s legal office. The team met with international law experts as well as officials from different governments to hear their opinions.

The review was prompted by the Obama administration’s decision to enable the passing of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334 in December 2016, according to which settlement activity constitutes a “flagrant violation” of international law and has “no legal validity”.

In 1978, the Carter administration concluded that the establishment of civilian settlements was inconsistent with international law but President Ronald Reagan overturned that stance in 1981. Until Obama, administrations recognized that settlement activity could be an obstacle to peace but mostly didn’t get caught up on legal positions.

Agree. And the first Muslim democrat/socialist gay president imported 200,000 yearly legal and illegal muslims and deported christians back to ISIS to be slaughtered after they tried to make it to America

Trump is a common sense person. The idea that no Jews would be allowed to live in some future Palestinian State and that arrangement would be considered a peace plan was/is absurd. Trump is stating the obvious. Of course Jews have a right to live wherever they want, just like anyone else. Can you imagine the hysterics if Israel proposed peace on the basis of evicting all the Arabs? Insane.

I can “imagine” the State of Israel evicting ALL moslems. Not very probable, but I can dream, can’t I?

It’s not going to happen. Israel is actually making an effort to uplift the Arabs and integrate them into Israel society: by cracking down on crime in Arab towns, improving their schools, teaching Arabic to all students in Israel. Why? Because Israelis actually want to live in peace with their Arab neighbors. Likewise the only way to peace with the Palestinians is if they want to live in peace with their Jewish neighbors. I feel like I’m stating the obvious but apparently it’s not obvious to a lot of people, namely the Arabs and the Democrats.

Yea to our most gutsy President in the last 50 years. This also should be a nail in the coffin of the BDS movement and a major set back for the Islamic believers now living here who only want to create another holocaust. This POTUS is amazing. I agree that any Jew who supports the Democrats ought to have his head examined. I hope that he wins in 2020 in a landslide as this man has done more to make America great than ………(fill in what you want).

“ought to have his head examined.”
The Jews that support Democrats will be getting their heads examined in an autopsy after the Democrats do all they have in mind. Then the rest of us that love freedom will be next.

I believe this should act as a wake up call to the Jewish voters, as the Democratic party is not the party of their parents and grandparents…it has become the party of the ultra socialists, haters, obstructionists and the promoters of violence.

Yes, absolutely. The so called Jews like Schiff, Soros( who is not Jewish because his mother was not Jewish) Nadler, and many other are against real Judaism.
I have never voted for the Democrats because they got worse and worse since Carter´s presidency.
Now, the US has the best President ever who made America great and Israel great , too

If Israel took over the West Bank and Gaza, eventually the biggest benefactors would be whatever decent people are among the “Palestinians”. The rest would end up in Israeli prison or gone.

I heard this earlier today and thought the opposite, wow! I am proud of Trump. There is no negotiation possible with the groups holding the so called Palestinians captive and propagandized. Nothing short of the complete annihilation of Israel will please them so why even try?

Fact: Arabs in Israel live in peace and safety as long as they and their scumbag polititians respect human rights and Israels laws.

Regarding the growing antisemitism in many western countries Israel should rapidly and significantly multiply the settlements

As that organisation is currently composed, I would regard any criticism from from it as a sign that I was doing my job properly, because taking some flak from that house of charity abusers, despots and religious fanatics seems to me like a merit with distinction.

You want to know how this was reported on the fake media here in OZ? “America softens its stance on Israel.” That’s about it, probably butt hurt them too much to even say that bit.
