There was a time when the world united against Galileo, who had defied holy teachings by stating that the Earth is neither flat nor the center of the universe, but revolves around the sun. President Trumpโs acknowledgment that Jerusalem is Israelโs capital was also a plain statement of fact, one that Arabs and Muslims insist the West must simply wish away. โEppur si muove,โ said Galileo: the earth moves whether one acknowledges it or not. The same applies to the fact that Israelโs capital is Jerusalem.
