In less than 48 hours after Donald Trump was sworn in as President of the United States, Israel has announced that has approved plans for 560 new homes in East Jerusalem which is a direct violation of the anti-Israel U.N. Resolution that was passed in December with the help of the Obama administration.

From The Jerusalem Post:

Less than 48 hours after Donald Trump was sworn in as US president, the Jerusalem Municipality’s Local Planning and Building Committee on Sunday approved hundreds of Jewish residential housing units beyond the 1949 Armistice Line.

Housing approvals over the Green Line were previously largely shelved amid heightened tensions between Washington and Jerusalem, which were further exacerbated by the recent UN resolution condemning settlement construction.

Deeming the resolution further evidence that the UN is fundamentally biased against Israel, Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat issued a blistering statement against the ruling, and rebuked the Obama administration for abstaining, and pressuring Israel to cease construction.

Moreover, on Thursday the mayor emailed a brief video, accompanied by a letter of support for Trump to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and accused Obama of “surrendering to the Iranian’s and radical Islam,” and “abandoning Israel.”

On Sunday, the municipal construction committee approved 566 housing units in Ramat Shlomo, Ramot, and Pisgat Ze’ev, as well as 49 Arab units in Beit Hanina; 14 in Wadi Joz; 24 in Umm Lison and Umm Tuba; 7 in Jabl Mukaber; 4 in Beit Safafa; 3 in Sur Baher; and 4 in A-Tur.
