As a presidential candidate speaking to American supporters of Israel, Donald Trump vowed that, if elected, “We will move the American Embassy to the eternal capital of the Jewish people, Jerusalem.”
In June, Trump signed the same waiver his three predecessors signed to keep the U.S. Embassy in Israel in Tel Aviv. But this week, he is set to make an announcement on his plans.
Reports last week said he planned to announce the United States recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, but take no action on moving the embassy. However, on Sunday, Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner,told the Brookings Institution the president hasn’t decided on whether to recognize the capital or move the embassy.
White House spokesman Hogan Gidley told reporters Monday on Air Force One that the president isn’t wavering on his plan.

Trump escalating tensions abroad? You don't say!
This decision and announcement is one of the most important historic events in modern times.
Israel will choose very wisely in my opinion about whether or not to have the POTUS make the announcement.
Make no mistake, Israel and the Rothschild Family will make this decision.
Mr. Trump will oblige.
This should have been done more than 20 years ago...Arabs, Muslims and more get over it. Jerusalem IS the capital of Israel and always has been.
Yes! Why on Earth would he evem wade into this mess with NK launching nukes, the Russians still working to destabilize Europe, and terrorists doing their best to establish new footholds in Africa? Another unforced error by the U.S.
Hopefully it will start a massive war and Israel will Nuke the all.
