As part of his strategic alliance with the apartheid "Israeli" entity, US President Donald Trump is "actively considering when and how" to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Occupied Al-Quds.

Trump Actively Considering US Embassy Move to Occupied Al-Quds!

Trump's vice president, Mike Pence, made the remarks in a keynote address at an event in New York commemorating the 70th anniversary of the UN vote for partition of Palestine, which led to the creation of the Zionist entity.

"President Donald Trump is actively considering when and how to move the American embassy in "Israel" from Tel Aviv to "Jerusalem"," Pence told the gathering of UN ambassadors, diplomats and "Israeli" leaders.

"It's a question of when, not if," a US official said on June 1.

During his campaign for the White House, Trump expressed support for moving the embassy but did not renew the call - which would anger Palestinians and Arab states - when he visited Occupied Al-Quds this year.

In 1995, Congress passed a law making it US policy to move the embassy to Occupied Al-Quds, symbolically endorsing "Israel's" claim on the city as its capital.

But the law contains a clause that has allowed each president since to issue and renew a six-month waiver on carrying out the move.

Pence, who is to visit "Israel" next month, said he would address the Knesset during the trip and "bring a message of resolve and commitment to draw the United States and "Israel" even closer together, and to stand together in defense of all that we hold dear."

"I'm pleased to report today that America's support for "Israel's" security is at a record level today," he said.

Trump would "never compromise the safety and security of "Israel"," he added.
