U.S. Jewish Groups Slam Court Decision on Jerusalem
(Times of Israel) Rebecca Shimoni Stoil - Major American Jewish organizations expressed dismay at Monday's Supreme Court ruling that American citizens born in Jerusalem may only list their birthplace as Jerusalem, rather than as Jerusalem, Israel. The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations said: "We do not believe that Jerusalem-born American citizens having Israel on their passport would impinge on future negotiations or compromise the role of the United States. Tens of thousands of Americans are affected by this decision."
