Appearance can be Deceiving - Who Can Israel Trust

For all intents and appearances, Israel is at a crossroads. In spite of easy talk that appears to pay attention to the conundrum that Israel faces, more effort seems to be spent on those who attacked Israel and once again, Israel is set to bear the brunt of accusations when she needs American support and the American delegation in Jerusalem is searching for other alternatives. Nobody appears to want to understand this and in the gap, Israel's enemies are gaining traction. It's as if they are being required t pay dearly for having Jerusalem recognized as the capitol when the 'Palestinian' leadership is/are fuming in their own smoke clouds of hatred and want everyone else to pay for that also, including their own.
America is no longer helping, which is actually inferred by Scriptural assumption.
The appearance of the American delegation now bears a resemblance of trying to turn back the clock and the 'Palestinian' leadership is ready to oblige. But watch the focus; the Temple Mount is always in the background and, yet, it is the focal point in all of this; and the American delegation has no clue. The hudna is already half spent and the next time will be more to the point ever.
