Title: Trump Turns on Israel: Warns Israel to Curb Settlement Construction
Post by: Shlomo on February 03, 2017, 05:36:34 AM
This is rather shocking because that’s exactly what the United Nations was condemning when everyone said Obama betrayed Israel by abstaining from the vote.

What's also concerning is that some people / organizations that are normally on our side are comfortable with the Trump Administration statement from yesterday.  Here's an example of this:

Here's yet another illustration of the Statement from the Trump Administration being defended.   The writer also has a weekly column in a newspaper geared to Orthodox Jews called 'The Jewish Star'.    http://www.thejewishstar.com/    Normally, his positions are on the favorable side.

This article is from Arutz Sheva.  It's evident that most people on the ' RIGHT' , at least in the media,  view the situation differently than most of us do.  Which is concerning considering their much larger platform.
