The World Divided for Jerusalem

Long - term efforts to establish peace and agreement between Israel and Palestine are already breaking apart in desert dust.

US President Donald Trump's statement in December, which would move the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, did not go unnoticed by the United Nations. The shift itself meant violating the international consensus for decades.

The US officially moved its embassy to Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem on Monday, to the date corresponding to the founding of Israel as a state on May 14, 1948, marking the 70th anniversary of Israel's creation. this country.

It is strange that toward this occasion, the opening of embassies symbolizes diplomacy and peace.

At least 58 Palestinians were killed and more than 2700 injured in Protests that followed during and after the opening ceremony in Jerusalem, making this day the deadliest since the Gaza War in 2014. About 40,000 Palestinians protested at 13 different locations by burning tires, throwing stones and balloons into the fire.

CNN writes that Jerusalem and Gaza are already a world apart. In Jerusalem, American and Israeli flags had appeared on the walls of the old city with the message: Thank you, President Trump. And in Gaza, tear gas, mixed with burning smoke from tires, was thrown by Israeli fears in an effort to disperse the crowds who had turned to the protective border. In Jerusalem, President Donald Trump was hailed in a message as a partner for freedom and peace.

This Trump decision to open the US Embassy in Jerusalem is crazy, criminal and provocative, it says in Russia Today.

Washington's decision to open the embassy in Jerusalem is, in fact, a decision made in 1995. Presidents Clinton, G.W. Bush and Obama delayed the move with the goal of overseeing peace progress, Finian Cunningham wrote.

Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel praised Donald Trump after he had once again magnificent Israel and also urged other states to follow the same example and move their embassies from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, which he believed would bring peace.

By Jerusalem PostTrump's initiative is natural, logical and moral. It contains in itself Scriptural purpose, where righteousness and what belongs to the Jews, is being given as once promised - the legitimacy of the Jewish State and its capital.

The paradox here is that beyond words like peace, relief, greatness, etc. The reality is all the opposite and that the chances of success have already been destroyed. However, this week for Israel was glorious even from the Eurovision victory and that two other states would shift their embassies, Guatemala and Paraguay, respectively, and that does not end there. A royal visit by Prince William is expected next month, the first in 70 years.

Netanyahu immediately defends military action under the declaration that each state is tasked with protecting its own borders and that the terrorist Hamas organisation is aimed at destroying Israel, and in this case “we are more than determined to defend our sovereignty and citizens”. A spokesman for the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) said the armed forces have fired fire on persons performing terrorist activities rather than on demonstrators, where they have been distributed through tear gas, according to the regulation.

Israel blames Hamas for inciting and lighting the protest to terrorist acts, for saying the army would use real weapons only in extreme cases and that instead it would only use tear gas and simple water to disperse the crowds. The approaching Palestinians towards borders has escalated the situation between life and death.

It has reported that there have been children between the number of victims and the wounded, even a person with special abilities.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas under call: Again today, the massacres of our people continue, declaring three days of mourning, calling it a bloody day of Nakba. While Riyad Mansur, the representative of Palestine to the United Nations, told reporters there is no chance of Palestine joining a peace process, led by the US.

Israel's actions were severely condemned by the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Turkey, Lebanon and other states. The world has reacted in various ways to this event. White House spokesman Raj Shah has accused Hamas of provocation and full responsibility for tragic deaths. Kuwait drafted a statement calling for independent investigations, expressing ʹmllef and grief, but was blocked by the US. The UK said the high number of victims is extremely disturbing, so it calls on protesters to act peacefully. Germany, meanwhile, said that Israel has the right to defend itself, but must do so proportionally. French President Emmanuel Makron condemns the violence of the Israeli army. Turkey, meanwhile, expressed that the US shares responsibility with Israel for this shameful ʹmasacre and has drawn diplomats from Tel Aviv. South Africa has done the same.

Why is Jerusalem the most sensitive point or place for red alarm in Israeli-Palestinian relations?

Jerusalem is the heart of three monotheistic beliefs, Christendom, Judaism and Islam respectively. Among the world's oldest cities, conquered, destroyed, and rebuilt every time, he remains the Holy Land for all three beliefs and their origin since the prophet Abraham.
