From the Weekly Sandard:
State Dept. Again Refuses to Name Capital of Israel!
6:52 PM, Sep 6, 2012 • By DANIEL HALPER
The State Department today again refused to name the capital of Israel, even after being questioned by the press and even after the Democratic party (President Obama’s party) voted yesterday to add language to its platform stating that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.
Here’s the remarkable exchange from today’s press briefing, with reporters and press secretary Patrick Ventrell:
QUESTION: On Israel?
MR. VENTRELL: Yeah.
QUESTION: Which city does the U.S. Government recognize as the capital in the – Israel?
MR. VENTRELL: Well, as you know, longstanding Administration policy, both in this Administration and in previous administrations across both parties, is that the status of Jerusalem is an issue that should be resolved in final status negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians. So that’s longstanding Administration policy and continues to be so.
QUESTION: I mean, no city is recognized as a capital by the U.S. Government?
MR. VENTRELL: Again, I just stated our position, and it’s one we’ve said here many times before.
QUESTION: That means Jerusalem is not a part of Israel?
MR. VENTRELL: What it means is that the status of Jerusalem must be resolved in final status negotiations.
QUESTION: But….

DNC’s Phony Voice Vote: God & Jerusalem Amendment over Mass Protest
September 5, 2012
Sam Sewell of The Steady Drip comments:
Three times they asked the floor to do a voice vote. All three times the Democratic Delegates showed significant displeasure in including God and Jerusalem to be part of the Democratic Platform.
The moderator declared the motion passed even though it was far from clear that there was the required 2/3 vote. The true nature of the Democratic Party is very clear. They are Godless antisemites.
I would add, not in their defense, that at least they were more honest in handling voice votes than the Republican National Convention was! – for awhile.

Obama tells Palestinians to Delay statehood until election over: http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/obama-to-palestinians-delay-statehood-until-election-over/
I don’t believe that Obama has any intention of being reelected. Goldman Sachs has obviously chosen Romney to take Obama’s place. Obama will then be free to go over to the EU and UN, divide Israel, and give parts of it to the Vatican and Islamic caliphate via the Palestinians. Obama can then play out his messiah complex by pretending to be the Mahdi.
Meanwhile, I suspect that the nwo will coalesce into four unions: the European Union, North American Union, Pacific Union, and Asian Union or some variation thereof. Those four unions will then consolidate into a one world government. Since the Vatican will control part of Jerusalem at that point then it will be free to traipse out its Christ impersonator, like David Rothschild, who will pretend to be Christ/Isa/Horus reincarnated. The Vatican will play out the same old emperor/pharaoh/pope as demigod routine by trying to pass its antichrist pope off as the new world dictator of the nwo.
