The Joe Biden administration is facing pressure to scrap plans to build a U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem after a Palestinian legal group revealed the proposed embassy is located on land that was illegally confiscated by Israel from Palestinians in 1948. 

Washington, July 11 (RHC)-- The Joe Biden administration is facing pressure to scrap plans to build a U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem after a Palestinian legal group revealed the proposed embassy is located on land that was illegally confiscated by Israel from Palestinians in 1948. 

The historical documents were made public by the Palestinian legal group Adalah ahead of President Biden’s trip this week to Israel and the occupied West Bank.  The group’s legal director, Suhad Bishara, said: “This plan is a serious escalation in U.S. legitimization of Israeli expropriation of land from Palestinians.  If the Biden administration doesn’t abandon it, then there is no other way to interpret the move than siding with Israel’s racist policies.”
