The Biden Administration is pressuring Israeli officials to abandon Israel's sovereignty over the entire city of Jerusalem. The first step is opening an illegal and illegitimate consulate for the Palestinians in the heart of Jerusalem. The move has outraged many in the Jewish community worldwide and the Israeli government.
We call upon the three main movers in this process, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Israel and Palestinian Affairs Hady Amr, and National Security Council Director for Israel-Palestine Affairs Julie Sawyer, to immediately abandon efforts to open an illegal and illegitimate consulate to the Palestinians in Jerusalem. If you must open such a facility, do so in Ramallah or Abu Dis, but not in Israel's eternal capital of Jerusalem.
