Decision made following U.S. president's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, Yedioth Ahronoth daily reports

1. Mr. Katz is an idiot.

This seems to be a reckless decision. I would think there would have been security concerns that would have questioned this idea.

Now I know why Trump moved the embassy. He just wanted his name on a train station.

10. They are really being dumb

Nice way to needlessly alienate over half the electorate of your most important ally - inject partisanship into the alliance.
