Friedman says US Embassy ‘a new shrine in the ancient city of Jerusalem’

US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman at an event to mark the one-year anniversary of the US Embassy’s move to Jerusalem says: “We have done something that hasn’t been for a really long time. We have created a new shrine in the ancient city of Jerusalem, and we’re extremely proud of it.”

Friedman adds: “We’re able to project clarity, purpose and strength like never before.”

The envoy also said that “Israel has one strength, it’s on the side of God.”
