The Jerusalem Municipality’s covering of an LGBT pride banner from an external wall of a US Embassy facility in the capital continued to draw protest on Wednesday, with one American official comparing the issue to Israel’s planned annexation of parts of the West Bank.
“While Ambassador Friedman is fighting for annexation in the United States, are you invading our sovereign territory here?” the senior embassy official fumed to Channel 12 news, referring to the envoy’s trip to Washington for talks at the White House on whether the Trump administration should back Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to begin the process of annexation from July 1.

  1. When Biden moves the embassy back to Tel Aviv, this won't be an issue any more.

  4. Maybe, but H.B. Obama said he would move it to Jerusalem but reneged.

  5. Because politicians always keep their promises and never say things just to get elected.
