Let me clarify that then and also for those who have not read the whole article. I was referring to this section of the article from the JPOST:

"Some of the possibilities are intriguing, from Russia using its Security Council veto to block condemnation of the move and instead to enable it; to the simultaneous move of both the Russian and American embassies initiating the return of the 13 foreign embassies that left Jerusalem in 1980 in response to Israel’s reunification"

In the back of my mind is also the fact that the UN has been used as an Israel bashing forum for a long time.

Thanks for the clarification. It occurs to me that Putin may be angling for Israel to approve of a continued Russian presence in Syria as a stabilizing presence should some kind of negotiated agreement happen. Putin is very shrewd in playing both sides of the fence.
