Trump wanted to initiate a new approach to the peace process in the Middle East, which recognizes the failure of the previous approach of allowing Palestinian terrorism and Hamas' lack of recognizing Israel's right to exist - giving them billions of dollars to promote hatred while getting no closer to peace. Recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, as it has been for 3,000 years, is continuing on with a move started 20 years ago under Bill Clinton, who postponed the decision to recognize the capital and move the US embassy until tensions in the region allowed the act to occur more peacefully. Trump decided to stop the biannual postponement, and just accept the reality - Jerusalem is Israel's capital, and that the Palestinians have shown little willingness to compromise and even acknowledge Israel's right to exist.
