    No, the one they opened is a temporary embassy. Currently the Tel Aviv embassy still handles vast majority of diplomatic activity in Israel.

    Having said that, even the temporary one ended up costing 100 times more than what Trump said.

    If they have canceled the plan to build the permanent one in Jerusalem, and keep using the Tel Aviv one, then that's great. It will save the tax payer a big penny, and prove the point that the whole Jerusalem embassy thing was nothing but political pandering.

    Thank you for making my point. You don't know the reason, but you will soon.

    Actually, the Jews voted overwhelmingly for Clinton. 71% for Clinton compared to 21% for Trump.
    The real world is probably the opposite of what you imagine in most situations.

    So, let us all hope that this one gets a nice public hanging. Downtown. They can sell concessions. The folks of Pittsburgh will find closure.

    I noticed that there hasn't been a lot of thread coverage on this here. I suppose it has something to do with the fact the gunman was also fiercely anti Trump... Hmm... wait what? Seems so. And hard for liberals then to distance themselves from one of their own.....

    Standard silliness. Always blame everything on Obams. Ant Semitic incidents up 57% in 2007.

    There are plenty of posts which negate that.

    Well this is how a British Jew sees it.

    My post was from a British Jew. Hence you are saying British Jews talk Righteous indignation and hyperbole and you expect anyone to believe they can be safe with you?

    Sorry, I know I used big words.... Your foreigner's view of the US refers to the citizen who is British... Not you... I just didn't want to be so actively racist in labeling the source of your hyperbole. But thanks, again, for demonstrating your willingness to engage in the hyperbole.

    I am British. He is British. He provided facts. You are using abuse rather than answering his valid, real factual criticisms.

    Was it someone from Antifa or maybe a caravan Muslim terrorist that did it?

    lets see the shooters comments form around the time Trump called white nationalists "fine people"

    the good news is, Trump should have no issues Condemning the man if he doesn't think the man supports him - cause as we know, it's all about Trump to Trump - Trump's ego rules supreme in that one

    Trump made white nationalists feel empowered again... sad!

    Trump has made racial, nationalistic rhetoric "ok" again for some and the crazies are listening, even the ones that may also be upset with him for things like moving the embassy

    I think if you reflect on it, you'll agree that your citation provided an opinion, which, last I looked doesn't create a fact, does it. Of course, you're also British, so you feel what? offended? Perhaps you can find yourself a moist tissue....

    I know he provided facts with his beliefs based on those facts. The facts are the things you refuse to address. That you cannot acknowledge his concerns is another matter. Here are some of the facts he mentioned.

    The ADL had already been expressing concern for US Jews.

    https://www.theguardian.com/comment...ence-pittsburgh-need-more-than-silent-support

    so there you go answer those facts.

    Obama does not hate Jews in fact he selected them as SC judges, the highest jobs of the land
