The world is on fire, but Biden’s handlers are not too busy to enable and embolden the jihad.
“Blinken: US will rejoin anti-Israel UNESCO, establish Palestinian consulate in Jerusalem,” JNS, April 30, 2022:
Israel has no objection to an U.S. return to UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken told Congress last week.
The United States officially withdrew from UNESCO on Dec. 31, 2018 under the Trump administration. The move reflected “U.S. concerns with mounting arrears at UNESCO, the need for fundamental reform in the organization, and continuing anti-Israel bias at UNESCO,” the State Department said in a statement at the time….
Blinken described concerns about the organization’s anti-Israel bias as understandable, but added, “I can say with authority that our partners in Israel feel the same way. They support our rejoining of UNESCO.” The United States should “shape the discussion, not someone else,” he said.
The secretary of state also reiterated the administration’s commitment to reopening the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem, a campaign pledge made by President Joe Biden.
“It’s something we are working on with the Israeli government,” he said. “I was in Ramallah just a few weeks ago and saw [Palestinian Authority] President [Mahmoud] Abbas, we talked about that among other things,” he added.
“As you know, we re-established support for the Palestinians a year ago January, including significant humanitarian and economic assistance that had been previously held back, we have reengaged them across the board, and the consulate is a piece of that,” he said.
“It does require, of course, coordination with and support from Israel, including, for example, providing privileges and immunities for the staff of the consulate-to-be, so it’s a work in progress.”…

blinken is winken as he makes the claim that Israel is fine with this, that Israel wanted this. Whoever his “partners” in Israel are…could they be, *mozlums*?

Grimly true. And this has a double purpose–to move against our ally Israel and to undo the work of President Trump.

Has UNESCO changed? It has not. All that’s changed is the occupant of the White House, and not for the better.

The *US Embassy* is now in Jerusalem, Israel’s capital. We do not need a consulate there. This is all about taking Israeli land for a state for those who want to destroy then.

In other words, American taxpayers are once again funding “Palestinian” “Pay for Slay” of Israeli citizens.

Israel cannot win here. She either cooperates and contributes to Jihad violence against her own people, or else she demurs and is attacked for not supporting supposedly peaceful “Palestinian” statehood.
Infidel says
A consulate is a ‘mini-embassy’ in a city that’s not a country’s capital. The US can have consulates to Israel in any other city – Haifa, Tel Aviv, Eilat, Nazareth, et al, but it can’t have a consulate in the capital city: that would be the embassy
Also, a country A can’t have an embassy or a consulate to country B in a third country C. For instance, a Malaysian consulate to Sudan can’t be located in a city in Chad. Similarly, a US consulate in ‘Palestine’ can’t be located in Israel: the US needs to – since ‘Palestine’ is the favorite country of our deranged Left – establish its consulate in other cities, be it Bethlehem, Jericho or Nablus

Spot on, Infidel.

With friends like that, who needs enemies?
Black Sabbath says
US can only open terrorist consulate if Israel allows. Jerusalem is Israeli territory, and does not belong to Osama-bin-Biden.
Hugh Fittzgerald says
Apparently Antony Blinken has not read the Vienna Convention on Consular Affairs (1963). The “receiving” country must give its approval for any consulate that another country wishes to open or re-open on the “receiving” country’s territory. Both Prime Minister Bennett and Foreign Minister Lapid have said they will never allow that “consulate to the Palestinians” to re-open in Jerusalem. They will not be budged. The Bidenites should do a little more studying before making such pronouncements.
Tony says
The Muslims in the middle east need to wake and come to the conclusion that the nonmuslims are not allies of Muslims. This especially goes for Christian evangelists who wants to destroy Islam. Thanks to the traitorous Arabs who advocate relations with Israel has put all of the middle east in a serious problem. Muslims need to stand up and expel their leaders for treason. Muslims also have to expel American diplomats and close their embassies. Muslims all need to unite together and remind Washington that the sun won’t shine on them for long.
Black Sabbath says
According to moslems, the sun sets in a dirty pond of mud, and the Earth is flat. Don’t walk too far, you might fall off the planet.

In other words, Infidels are not actually going to directly help Muslims murder Jews. Oh, the humanity!

Note that Abdul here thinks that if you are not murdering Jews right now that you are a “traitor”. Grimly, this is mainstream Islam.

Why, because Muslims are throwing a tantrum? It’s what they do. Meanwhile, the free West is generally doing quite well, despite the butt-hurt that this fact causes pious Muslims, who believe they are the “best of peoples” for plotting to enslave and murder Infidels.
Mr X says
Jerusalem should be an independent territory neither for Israel nor the palestininans. The territory should be controlled by the members of unsc.
gravenimage says
Why should Israel have to give up her capital due to Islamic aggression?
Then, the United Nations Security Council is *itself* anti-Israel.
Mr X says
Because jerusalem is not only claimed by the Israel but also by the palestinian. This is the only logical solution for this problem. Both sides don’t get to have jerusalem as their capital. Unsc members include usa which is not anti Israel in any sense.
