JERUSALEM
The president believes that Israel was created solely to atone for the Holocaust. He has suggested that Israel should be in Europe. He does not mention the fact that that most of the Middle East including Israel, Palestine, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and others where part of a Jewish Kingdom over 2000 years ago and Jews were in the Holy Land ever since. He also does not consider the fact that Arab leaders were allies of the Nazis and supported the Holocaust.
Jerusalem (/dʒəˈruːsələm/; Hebrew: יְרוּשָׁלַיִם Yerushaláyim; Arabic: القُدس al-Quds or Bayt al-Maqdis, also spelled Baitul Muqaddas) is a city in Western Asia, on a plateau in the Judaean Mountains between the Mediterranean and the Dead Sea. It is one of the oldest cities in the world, and is considered holy to the three major Abrahamic religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Both Israel and the Palestinian Authority claim Jerusalem as their capital, as Israel maintains its primary governmental institutions there and the State of Palestine ultimately foresees it as its seat of power. Neither claim, however, is widely recognized internationally.
