Paying Lip Service to Jerusalem

Costa Rica opens its embassy in Tel Aviv after closing Jerusalem mission
Costa Rica opened its embassy in Tel Aviv Friday, relocating its diplomatic mission after 24 years in Jerusalem, the foreign minister said in a statement...
Israel claims all of Jerusalem as its capital, but most nations don't formally recognize that claim. Since 1982, Costa Rica and El Salvador have been the only two countries with embassies there. In August, both countries announced their decisions to relocate to Tel Aviv.
"It's time to rectify a historical error that damages us on the international level and deprives us of any friendship with the Arab world," Arias said at the time.
Israel criticized the decision, saying it could be interpreted as a surrender to terrorism.

You are absolutely correct. Why should any country respect our designation of Jerusalem as our capital when we do not demand or earn that respect!
The other day, the PA prime minister announced again that neither Hamas nor the PA would give up one piece of Palestine or recognoze Israel's right to exist. At about the same time, our ignorant Prime Minister Olmert rushes to announce how much land Israel will give away to the Arabs.
Israel does not cherish the land as much as the Arabs do and is not willing to sacrifice for it. Perhaps that failure and the general approach of the Olmert government are the reasons that
G-d has not allowed it to rain.

The cowering of the West in the face of Islamic pressure is indeed shocking.
