jerusalem is now ina very in the last decade. jerusalem is now in a very positive momentum.ourism is up, high—tech sector, one of the top 35 cities in the world. we were never counted as a high—tech city. the city is quiet, one of the safest in the world so i believe i leave it ina in the world so i believe i leave it in a positive momentum. i received it and it was not positive to say the least. i believe in every practical parameter you check out if the city is doing well it is common practice that the city is doing very well. well, that is, i may say, a very positive spin but that city is also one of the most divided in the world and if one looks at it from the point of view of arab citizens it isa the point of view of arab citizens it is a city which is consistently failing its people. well, i totally disagree with you. the reality is if you look at our arab population they are doing far better than anywhere in the region, syria, gaza, the arab residents ofjerusalem are part of the city and they have the same quality of health services, they are pa rt quality of health s

in jerusalem those two decisions alone, to withdraw from the nuclear deal and to recognize jerusalem is would be moreal, than enough to demonstrate that under president trump the relationship between america and israel is closer than ever. there is so much more. i see the administration's support for israel in so many ways. i see their unwavering commitment to israel's self-defense. i see it in the way that president trump respects israel's sovereignty and is committed to israel's security. i see the tremendous support received at the united nations. washington may be a swamp, but the u.n. is a cesspool. a cesspool of anti-americanism and anti-semitism. for decades, israel has been demonized and delegitimized at the u.n. recall thatmay protests seen 18 months ago when in the waning days, the u.s. security council shamefully ganged up on israel. on that day, america abandoned israel. the jackals were applauding. i think it is safe to say that there is also a new sheriff at the u.n. ambassador nikki haley!
