"U.S. State Department
does not recognize Jerusalem as Capital of Israel"
U.S. State Department does not recognize
Jerusalem as Capital of Israel
A State Department official refused to state that Jerusalem is
the capitol of Israel when pressed today by AP State Department
reporter Matt Lee.
When pressed by a reporter earlier today, State Department
spokesperson Victoria Nuland carefully avoided calling Jerusalem
the capital of Israel, instead deflecting the query by claiming
that Jerusalem¹s ultimate status will only be determined in
peace negotiations by the Israelis and Palestinians.
The White House did not respond to request for comment.
So which is it President Obama. Do you recognize Jerusalem
as Israel Capital, like you said in your Presidential Run back
in 2008 or not?????
