The US has a “biblical” duty to support Israel’s annexation of the occupied West Bank, former US President Donald Trump’s ambassador to Israel argues in a new book, unveiling a plan for “one Jewish state" that he said he would share with Trump.
“President Trump has often said that he was indifferent to one state or two states - whatever the parties might agree to,” former US ambassador David Friedman writes in the book, One Jewish State: The Last, Best Hope to Resolve the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.
“His goals always were practical and targeted toward tangible improvements in the quality of life. I believe that if Israel will support this plan, he will as well,” according to a copy of the book obtained by The Forward.
Friedman argues the US should support Israel’s annexation “based first and foremost on biblical prophecies and values”, saying that such a policy “hearkens back to basic Judeo-Christian values of kindness, human dignity, humility and prosperity”.
Friedman told The Forward he will share his annexation plan with Trump “at the appropriate time”.
Would be very convenient if Trump was in charge right now. But hey, somehow Democrats can project their crimes on Republicans.
He was president, remember?
And will be again if the gEn0cidE Joe dipshits have their way.
Yes, holding Dem politicians to account is truly wrong, you should only do that to the other side.
If you think letting trump win will convince Democrats to move left or will reduce the amount of suffering in the world, I’m not sure what to tell you.
Humans are machines for making the world worse, I don’t expect anything different.
So you go online and sow chaos and discord among those of us who actually grew out of our edgy teen years?
So deep…
I’m queer, an immigrant, and disabled. Pardon me if I have personal experience that people don’t make the world better.
And we were promised Trump would be doing the Genocide that Genocide Joe is doing right now.
Apparently crimes only matter when Republicans do them.
No, he wouldn’t be “doing the genocide that genocide Joe is doing right now.” It would have been/will be far far far worse.
Do you think the act of genocide only has two states, on and off?
