THE US’ move to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is bound to inflame sentiments and complicate the fight against terror, Malaysia’s Foreign Ministry said, urging President Donald Trump’s administration to reconsider its decision.

Wisma Putra said Trump’s decision, which he announced yesterday, would put an end to all efforts made to achieve peace in the Middle East, which centred on the Palestinian question.

  • What you talk about - "blow to fight against terror"? Terror has been existing in the Mid East for so long....most of it self-inflicted. Trump's decision wouldn't be responsible for terror; it's occupants have proven a long time ago, that they are more than capable of manufacturing it by themselves.
