(Wall Street Journal) Editorial - President Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is hardly the radical policy departure that critics claim, and Mr. Trump accompanied it with an embrace of the two-state solution. Congress recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in 1995 in a bill President Clinton declined to veto. Other presidents have agreed in principle, but in office they used a waiver to put off any formal recognition. Mr. Trump called his decision on Wednesday "a recognition of reality" and he's right. One way the Palestinian Authority could signal a new seriousness in reaching a peace deal would be to stop paying the families of Palestinians who kill innocent Israelis. The House passed the Taylor Force Act Tuesday, which would reduce U.S. aid to the Palestinians until they renounce pay-for-slay payments. If the movement of an American embassy that was signaled more than 20 years ago is enough to scuttle peace talks, then maybe the basis for peace doesn't yet exist.2017-12-07 00:00:00Full Article
