Recently, President Trump declared Jerusalem as the capital
of Israel, and that the US Embassy will be relocated in it.
Such political decision is in violation of all UN resolution
and of International Law.
Jerusalem and the West Bank were illegally occupied during
the 1967 war.
The occupation was condemned by the UN. It instructed Israel
to retreat to the 1967 boundaries as stated by the UN Resolution 242.
Israel has and is ignoring such instruction. It has been and
is always supported by the US government who used 44 vetoes to prevent the implementation
of Resolution 242 which condemn Israel.
On December 12, 2017, Egypt introduced a resolution at the
UN Security council rejecting President’s Trump political order. All member of
the Council voted in support of the Egyptian Resolution. However, the US
representative used its veto to prevent its passage.
The same Egyptian Resolution was then taken to the UN
General Assembly on December 20, 2017.
It was supported by 128 UN member. However, the US voted against it.
Since the creation of the State of Israel by President
Truman in 1948, American foreign policy toward the Arab World has been the
source of political instability, which led to the rise of terrorist groups such
as Al Qaeda and ISIS.
The American irrational and aggressive political strategy is
the result of corruption that dominates American political institutions.
H. Reid, the previous majority leader in the
Senate stated that the Congress is corrupt. He further said that members of
Congress who put their own personal interest ahead of the national interest
should not be in the Congress.
Senator Reid was right.
Unfortunately, such political behavior of the majority of the members of Congress
has been the same since WW II.
One of the major factor
contribution to the American political corruption is due to the role of the
lobbyists in the nation capital. It represents political and economic groups in
the US.
Financial contributions to
politicians through Lobbyists plays a major role in influencing foreign and
national policy.
I is a well-known fact that AIPAC
the American Israeli Public Affairs is the most influential and strongest
political committee in the US.
AIPAC influences and shape the
American foreign policy toward Israel and the whole Middle East. Its motto is ‘WHAT
ISRAEL WANTS, ISRAEL GETS.’
