BREAKING: Trump signs proclamation formally recognizing Israel's sovereignty over Golan Heights, reversing decades of US policy.

12:20 p.m.

Israel’s military says it’s started striking Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip after a rocket hit a house north Tel Aviv and wounded seven people. Netanyahu calls the rocket attack “wanton aggression” and says “Israel will not tolerate this. I will not tolerate it.”President Donald Trump has signed a proclamation recognizing Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights.

Trump had previewed the move in a tweet last week that it was time for the U.S. to take the step after 52 years of Israeli control of the strategic highlands on the border with Syria.

Who cares that America tried to be NEUTRAL for 5 decades,Trump changed all that based on his Gut. America’s neutrality that says all countries have right to exist and defend themselves may be hard to deliver if, appears one sided. Peace in the Middle East, a lifetime chant. Pray!

More power to Israel 🇮🇱

realDonaldTrump Thank You Mr. President! Israel needs a buffer zone!

I’m sorry...is this our president...helping a foreign government official by giving him a bunch of gifts to help his election? SeemsLegit

noupsell Netanyahu is Trump's buddy so what else would you expect?

ChatByCC How are Christians for trump at this point? Do they even know what this means?

Congress can overturn this if it has the backbone

The Ivanka/Jared proclamation.

How do we have the right to recognize sovereignty of Golan Heights?

Dangerous and stupid.

AmericaFirst

Israel wants ‘peace’.

Another three-day wonder that everyone will forget about because it changes nothing on the ground. Israel annexed the Golan back in 1981. It's a small, rural area of about 500 square miles with a population of around 50,000 where nothing much happens. Big yawn!

Good.

I love it. Ask me if I CAIR what the Hamas lovers will cry.

looks like grift is back on the menu boys

Follow the money.

KTLA If fighting breaks out due to this irresponsible act I hope the ppl on this thread are ready to volunteer for it and not claim one spurs

Or may be there will be something in return.

It appears that Trump is giving everything for free for his fellow Netanyahu.

I guess VP didn’t get the memo it’s red tie day

What is Trump trying to prove that no previous president did in the American history.

The US has no rights to give legitimacy to occupation

What could go wrong ?

No human really owns land; people only own what they can protect directly or indirectly. We are just another animal on this Earth; those who are lulled by “civilization,” norms, or religion into ignoring that will lose out

Band of thieves & crooks.

Pens, tanks and people.

This should do wonders for peace. As an aside, could he even find it on a world map?

It's NOT for Trump to give the Golan Hights away!!!

bastard!

. . . 'reversing decades of US policy'. Pretty much Trump's approach to running (ruining) America's government. Of course, it's not just limited to 'decades'. Some policies, based on the Constitution, go back a couple of centuries. But Trump has always disdained the Constitution.

So Uncle Sam has finally legitimised land grabbing 😂 historically Golan heights was a part of Syria. Though Israel was not going to return the land anyway.

The Crimea proclamation tomorrow? Next day?

Mene. tekel, ufarsin.

Disgusting hegemony that only serve to foment violence between Israel and her neighbours.

Illegal! Just USA imperialism

Two criminals conspiring.. Nothing new to see here

Omar the cockroach has got to be upset today…

So if Trump isn't compromised by Russia, why does he keep doing stupid things? This isn't good for anyone but Republicans and imperialist Israelis. People on the left and the middle aren't so ignorant to understand this will lead to more conflict. Trump has no chance in 2020.

It’s becoming clearer by the day why the war in Syria was started. Isis isreali secret intelligence service

NavroopSingh_ big boost for bibi

Amazing

P***y grabber and land grabber are best friends

trump started to appoint presidents to independent countries, to determine the boundaries of other countries , to claim humans as terrorists...etc

Of course he did. They are praising him so he gives them favors. That’s the way to get what you want from a dictator.

It’s done ✅ - strong leader

This must make Putin very happy.

What about Venezuela Sovereignty?

Next Crimea?

Both Trump and N-yahoo think they will benefit in distracting from their corruption if a war starts. Don’t trust either one at all.

demonic bastards IsraeliCollusion MuellerReport

American isn't the arbiter of anyone's sovereignty. Just because America is the new Anglican empire doesn't give it authority over the middle east. This isn't going to stop until they reach a 2 state solution. Otherwise it's 'thoughts and prayers'.

So will Trump now recognise Russia's sovereignty over the Crimea which is historically Russian?

Oh good. Another slap in the face to our allies. Trump just opened the door to WWIII

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The305MVP WTF he doesn't the Golan it's not his to give away. It's been part of Syria for over 2,000 years!

A dangerous precedent in a clear challenge to the international community and a violation of international legitimacy .

Netanyahu is in trouble politically in Israel, and may not be re-elected, so this is Trump's way of trying to help him get re-elected, that's all.

Please give the man more executive time.

The various inhabitants of that part of the world have been fighting since before recorded history. As a white male non-Muslim I’m going to have to back the group that doesn’t want to behead me. So.....Go Jews!! (I guess?)

This is actually good Trump. First good thing he’s done.

You mean 'working against' US policy don't you?

And Russia is really happy about this.

Unfortunately, this will not stop Hamas from launching rockets into Israel, only fuel it with more resolve?

Criminals, Trump and Netanyahu!

It was about time.

Who gave him the legitimacy to give something that doesn't belong to the United States? See what happens when you buy your own Attorney General.

KTLA What he should do is keep his word, he promised the whole world on national television that he wasn’t going to touch social security/medicare and look what’s happening now? Another one of ConManDon’s lies smh.

US/ISRAEL/SAUDI ARABIA - Partners in Crime.

When will Israel repay The American tax payers for 60 years Israeli welfare! $1.7 trillion of US national debt is Israel. That could have been free college of medical for US citizens or Trump Great Wall of Waste

Holman heights = oil and natural gas

The Greater Israel.

KTLA Another bad move for America

I still can't figure out if Netanyahu is trying to eliminate palestine and its people entirely, or just move them onto reservations. This kills the two state solution, which is scarier after the comments that Israel is the nation state of only jewish people and nobody else.

still violates international law. dumb

Oh the USA says it’s Israel’s so it must be Israel’s. Let’s forget international law that says it’s occupied Syrian territory. Can Americans not see why your country is so hated in the region? Open your eyes. It’s cos of this shit.

God bless this President for standing with God’s people.

The Latest: Israeli PM to cut short US visit after attackKFAR SABA, Israel (AP) — The Latest on developments in Israel and the Palestinian territories (all times local): 8:15 a.m. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he's cutting short his visit to Washington after a Gaza rocket attack on Israel. Netanyahu described Monday morning's rocket launch that struck a home in central Israel as a 'criminal attack' and vowed to strike back hard. He says he will return to Israel to handle the crisis shortly after meeting with President Donald Trump on Monday. An Israeli rescue service said the rocket from the Gaza Strip struck a house in central Israel, wounding seven people. The sounds of air raid sirens woke up the residents of the residential Sharon area, northeast of Tel Aviv, sending them scurrying to bomb shelters. A strong explosion followed. Yeah & the IDF gunning down Palestinians peacefully protesting at the border is just “casualties of war” huh? Where is the condemnation of the IDF’s criminal acts? Or Israel’s funding of Hezbollah, which many Palestinians denounce. you mean they haven't been striking hard already? God Bless em. Just don't ask for our Blood.

Trump for US recognition of Israeli control on occupied Golan HeightsUS President Donald Trump says the US should 'fully recognise' Israeli sovereignty over the occupied Syrian territory, an area annexed by Israel in 1967 and never recognised by international community. Is the Security Council prepared to confirm that to the rest of the United Nations Member States? its Just a continuous bark. It makes no difference. The struggle must continue until the land is free n handed back to it’s rightful owners.
