They can wait.

Actually, it isn't up to the US to decide where to put an embassy in a foreign, sovereign country.

What Israel should do is to declare Jerusalem the only city where foreign embassies will be accepted. Foreign powers h*ll-bent on not accepting Israeli sovereignty should be told to pack up their stuff and go home.

Much agreed. On top of that, this is most definitely not the time to be showing weakness by refusing to do something we have a perfect right, and even obligation, to do.

No problem. But don't expect another darn red cent of that $3 billion+ annual handout from the US.

But in truth, I think most Israelis and Americans can put this minor disagreement in the proper context of the strong US-Israeli alliance.
