The core truth the talking heads seemingly do not want to make obvious, although they know it, is that the Arab world has long had the destruction of Israel as their goal. They do not want peace, and they certainly do not want to admit Israel has a right to exist as a nation.
They have used the refugees from a war that they started 70 years ago–and lost, despite overwhelming military superiority–as a bargaining chip and pawn in a long term effort to overturn the will of the UN, which created Israel. Recognizing Jerusalem is nothing more, and certainly nothing less, than saying publicly that Israel has a permanent right to exist.
Those who oppose this move effectively are declaring that they do not and never have wanted anything for Israel but its destruction, and the death by brutal murder of all its Jewish inhabitants. In a sane world, it would be shameful to oppose this move.
