30532 - Jerusalem and USA

Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi
The president of the USA doesn’t pose a new contemplation as most believe with his statement that we will transfer the Embassy of the USA to Jerusalem. The truth is that it concerns of a promise that all the presidents of the USA have made from the 1970’s, namely after the facts of 1967. On the other side, Israel since the beginning of its existence formally declares that its capital is Jerusalem. For this reason until 1980, when the United Nations’ decision was issued to not accept the position of the Israeli parliament, there was the embassy of the Netherlands, the embassy of Africa and of South America. Since we have OLP who claims that Israel has no right, Denmark, Spain, Canada saying that there the capital of Israel has not been determined, Switzerland insisting on Tel Aviv, France, the United Kingdom, India that Jerusalem is the capital according to Isreal but has not been accepted by the International Community and the USA who believe that they have proclaimed the capital in Jerusalem, but maintain its embassy in Tel Aviv. So we see that the new president comes to give solution to a Gordian knot and as he has the strength to impose his power, he will convince the others that it is a solution of a problem, making use the of Alexander the Great’s technique.
