“Declaring Jerusalem a capital is disregarding history and the truths in the region.”
On the contrary, it is rejecting lies and propaganda and recognizing history and the truths in the region.
“It is a big injustice/cruelty, shortsightedness, foolishness/madness, it is plunging the region and the world into a fire with no end in sight.”
We can only hope that President Trump will not bow to these threats of violence, as that will only encourage more of them.
“Turkey says declaring Jerusalem Israel’s capital will start ‘fire with no end in sight,'” Reuters, December 6, 2017:
ANKARA (Reuters) – The Turkish government’s spokesman on Wednesday said that the United States’ decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel will plunge the region and the world into “a fire with no end in sight”.
“Declaring Jerusalem a capital is disregarding history and the truths in the region, it is a big injustice/cruelty, shortsightedness, foolishness/madness, it is plunging the region and the world into a fire with no end in sight,” Deputy Prime Minister Bekir Bozdag said on Twitter.
“I call on everyone to act logically, respect the agreements they signed and behave reasonably, avoid risking world peace for domestic politics or other reasons,” he said….

Turkey’s Deputy PM speaks of ‘history’, thus giving inanimate ‘history’ a divine authority. He speaks as if Turkey still holds a title to the Near East.
The Turkish Empire is no longer and thus there is NO TITLE to the Near East. There is NO title to the city of Jerusalem.
Jerusalem is within Israel. As a sovereign state, Israel chose Jerusalem as its capital. Jerusalem IS the capital of modern Israel. That is a fact, not an opinion.

“We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. There is one sign the [PA, Turkey, etc] can make which would be unmistakable, which would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary [Abbas], if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for [all of Israel, including the West Bank and Gaza and the entire ME], if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. Mr. [Abbas], open this gate. Mr. [Abbas], tear down this wall!”

5000 years of Jerusalem. And in a few hundred years it will still be Israel’s capital and islam will have died out due to its hatred of all that is good.

“I call on everybody to act logically, respect the agreements they signed and behave reasonable , avoid risking world peace for domestic politics or other reasons??? ” Yes this is what the Turks government spokesman said in other words cave in to the insane ranting of the terrorist running the Moslem countries and the Moslem shadow governments running the Moslems outside of their Moslem countries in Europe, Asia, North America and Africa.. Look how much peace has come about in the last 30 years appeasing the wants and needs these forming at the mouth homicidal” best of people”.

“…plunging region and world into a fire with no end in sight” (1400 years of it)
Yes, this is exactly what Islam has done after Muhammad’s transition to violence while in Medina. No more consistently violent or retrograde force has existed nor contains more violence in its religious ideologies; lying dormant like anthrax spores, waiting to inspire to violence.
9/11, 7/7, and the ever-increasing massacres, in addition to 1400 years of religious war, paint an accurate picture of Islam’s ideology. Islam owes its adolescent growth to its violent “fire with no end in sight”, and still carries on the suppression of women, the threat of death for opposition, the condemation of all unbelievers, sedition, and violent geo-aggression.
No ideology, with the exception of excessive liberalism, creates more sustained adolescents.

Yep, 1395 years so far (622-2017), and still counting.

Ah, Turd-key!
Just another islamic HELL HOLE! A huge mess of pig krap to be shoveled up, what a puke sack!
Charles says
Yet more bald faced lies from another muslim agent of terror!
The typical “rats paw” gesture with the up raised hand.
I hope that the President knows that THERE IS NO “peace process”! Never was, never will be!
Just be ready to “Smack Down” any war like acts from the Satanic muslim states!
common sense says
He should check his backyard.

What I see is that 2.5 billion Christians can tolerate Jews being the stewards of their holy sites. The “religion of peace” clearly is a relgion of bigotted haters.
Joe says
The PM of Turkey is not a “Christian”.
Guest says
We have been in that ‘fire’ for years already. The only thing Trump has done is make people finally admit it. We are at War with the Middle East and have been for years

“Declaring Jerusalem a capital is plunging region and world into a fire with no end in sight”
Now why would that be? You aren’t saying that Islam is a religion of violence, now, are you?
Anne Smith says
It is time these haters and threateners had their bluff well and truly called.
Mrs May – sadly for her electorate – is a weak and foolish puppet and practises appeasement at all times. The Americans are lucky to have a tough President who has no silly illusions about a “Religion of Peace”.
Let us hope and pray he is not assassinated.
Norger says
No more appeasement. I, for one, will never forget the news footage of Palestinians dancing in the streets after 9/11. These people are not interested in peace, they want to annihilate Israel (and the United States). Islam really is The Religion of Perpetual Outrage.
