God forbid, Ghana can never and would never support an apartheid regime, a war criminal like Israel, Israel must abide by the international resolutions, Israel is not more humans than any human that God created. Were all created by God and loves us all. But a criminal is a criminal.
If you truly understand the love of God, you will know how God instruct those who love him to prove their love by loving their neighbor as themselves not walling people. Do unto others as you want them done unto you.
Long live Isreal Long live Jerusalem Jerusalem the City of God Any one wishing Jerusalem well is already BLESSED.
Ghana needs to do that very soon. whether we like it or not Jerusalem will forever be the capital of the Jews and the people of Israel. it is inevitable. we better be part of history and certainly on the right part.long live Jerusalem.
Ghana is not moving it's embassy to Jerusalem. Israel must abide by international resolutions and go and live with their neighbors in peace, side by side, with their respective capitals in peace.
Isreal must first abide by UN resolutions and dtop acting like a rogue nation. They must return all illegally occupied lands before they can be trusted. There can never be a military solution to the crisis.
Ghana, should have done this the next day after the U.S. did it. its said there just two nations on earth that has "Prekese" God is like Israel in Africa. but we have condemned the nation of God and we are suffering the consequences. IT IS A MUST. Nana will succeed as a great president if he does so.
