In all of Jerusalem’s 3,000-year history, the Holy City has been divided just ONCE—from 1948 to 1967. That happened when Jordan—along with six other Arab nations—invaded Israel at its modern rebirth.

The Jordanian onslaught on Jerusalem devastated Jewish homes, schools and synagogues in the densely populated Jewish Quarter.

It was a shocking and grisly bloodbath—and the origin of so-called “East Jerusalem,” the Arab-populous portion of the Holy City that Palestinians now covet as their future capital. And which Biden and his underling, Hady Amr, want the Palestinians to have.

But in a spectacular and utterly unexpected triumph, Israel took Jerusalem in 1967—vanquishing Gentile control over Jerusalem for the first time in 2,000 years and ending what Jesus called the “times of the Gentiles” (Luke 21:24).

God won that victory for His people. Now Joe Biden wants to steal it from them by dividing Jerusalem again.

In so doing, Biden will be fighting against God. He cannot win ... but by cursing Israel, he will invite God’s curse on America.

Biden’s scheme begins by creating an unofficial U.S. consulate to the Palestinians in Jerusalem—one housed for now in the U.S. embassy but which will report directly to Washington, not to the U.S. ambassador to Israel.

The purpose, as a former Trump administration official put it, “is to walk back the U.S. recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, erode Israel’s sovereignty over its capital city, and signal support for dividing Jerusalem.”
