Israel’s Justice Minister is calling President Donald Trump the “Churchill of the 21st Century” for relocating the American embassy to Jerusalem.
Ayelet Shaked said with his move Trump has “reversed Chamberlain’s policy of capitulation” and shown the world that “the landowner has returned.” Previous US Presidents of both parties, as well as nearly every other country, refrained from opening embassies in Jerusalem, arguing that the city’s final status should first be resolved through Israeli-Palestinian negotiations.
