Trumps Vows to Move Embassy to Jerusalem

Jerusalem is in the news again today.  This time with The Donald making some valid claims that the Jews and Israelis might agree with?

 Donald Trump said he would move the US Embassy to Jerusalem.

“They want it in Jerusalem,” the front-runner among Republican presidential candidates said in an interview posted Tuesday by The Brody File, a Christian Broadcasting Network show. “Well I am for that 100 percent. We are for that 100 percent.”

Congress passed a law in 1995 mandating the move of the embassy to Jerusalem, but allowed the president a waiver. Each president since then has routinely exercised the waiver, citing the national security interests of the United States.

Calling US President Barack Obama “the worst thing that has ever happened to Israel” for negotiating the recent Iran-nuclear deal, Trump pledged loyalty to Israel.

“I will be very good to Israel,” he said. “People know that. I have so many friends from Israel. I have won so many awards from Israel. I was even the grand marshal for the Israeli Day Parade a few years ago. So I will back Israel.”

Wow!  That would sure make Jerusalem a "cup of trembling."  The Muslim world would come even further unglued.
