Abbas “victory speech”: Jerusalem is the “eternal capital of Palestine”
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas Sunday promised someday the PA flag would fly over “Jerusalem, eternal capital of the state of Palestine.”
Thousands of people greeted Abbas rapturously upon his return from the United Nations, where the General Assembly granted the PLO, representing the PA, upgraded status as a nonmember observer state.
“Raise your heads high, because you are Palestinians!” Abbas told the joyous crowd, waving PA flags in the PA capital of Ramallah, located in Samaria.

Never in the history of man has there been a nation called “Palestine” ruled by Arabs or Muslims.
History and geography lessons for this guy.

So now when they fire missiles at Israel it will be declared an act of war by a state recognized by the UN as the aggressor. Right? Not just a small group of disorganized fanatics acting on their own as has been the case so far. And which terrorist organization is supposed to be in charge of this new terrorist state? Hamas or Fatah?

It will cost America a bundle to build an appropriate suite of government buildings for their new capital in Jerusalem.Is there something at home that can be cut to facilitate an Islamic dream? The Muslim world might be a tad more cooperative and tolerant toward filthy unbelievers.

The Israeli response is to announce the building of 3000 new units in Jerusalem and the West Bank. Sux it, palis!

There has been no eternal capital of anything anywhere in that whole wretched region. It has a track record of bloody war worse than Europe’s, which if you know history is really saying something.
Every city that wasn’t very recently founded has been overrun and occupied dozens if not hundreds of times.

It’s not to late to give the Jews Baja.
