    Mogherini was speaking alongside U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, on a visit to Brussels, as U.S. President Donald Trump is considering recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

    “A way must be found through negotiations to resolve the status of Jerusalem as the future capital of both states,” Mogherini said, stressing the EU’s support for unlocking meaningful peace talks.

    She said the EU’s 28 foreign ministers will jointly discuss the matter with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Brussels next Monday, to be followed by a similar meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas early next year.

    I doubt the President of the United States, still without question the greatest most powerful nation on earth, is much if at all interested in anything the Unwanted Nobodies in New York have to say, still less the crowd from Everyone Unwanted in Brussels. By the way what was Ms. Mogherini doing in Brussels WI anyway?

    Real politik is not a partisan game to be played by vote-seeking macho, alpha-male wannabes. The tinderbox over there is not illusory. No one gained from the first Intifada…and that was touched off by Sharon’s unnecessary visit to Har HaBeis.

    this is making me love Trump even more, if you can believe it. If these descendants of Nazis who run the EU say one thing you should the opposite.

    WHAT “peace process?,” What is it going to take to finally make these ignormauses understand that there is no chance of a deal with the so called palis, they were given Gaza and turned it into a terror haven, no amount of land giveaways will satisfy these bloodthirsty savages who are only interested in doing away with the Jews and taking ALL of Israel, nothing less.
