Brazil moving its embassy to Jerusalem a matter of 'when, not if'

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Brazil’s president-elect Jair Bolsonaro told him that it was a matter of “when, not if” he moves his country’s embassy in Israel to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv.

But he has come under intense pressure from Brazil’s powerful agriculture sector not to do so, as it could hurt Brazilian exports to Arab nations. Despite Netanyahu’s comments, a senior official from Brazil’s incoming government told Reuters on Sunday no decision had yet been made on the issue.

Such a move by Bolsonaro would be a sharp shift in Brazilian foreign policy, which has traditionally backed a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Bolsonaro said he would move the embassy shortly after his election.

Literally no reason to do this other than to wag your dick in front of Israeli political donors. Piss off the entire Arab world and shit all over a nation’s sovereignty just to get some more dirty money.

This makes this move extra idiotic. Brazil will only lose for doing this for what? To own the libs?

[God of the Grove]

They won't be moving it.

They'll just say they are for years to come
