In 1995 (16 years ago) the U.S. passed the authorization of the move of the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv. But it had a clause in it which allowed a President to delay such action every six months in the interests of National Security. Three presidents have used this waiver approximately 32 times in the last sixteen years.
The significance of this delay is huge to Christians. They see the naming of Jerusalem as the unchallenged capital of Israel as a critical prerequisite to the rebuilding of the Temple on the Temple Mount. So, in one respect, three presidents have interfered with this goal. In another, all three may be simply doing their part to prevent the battle of Armageddon. So, I understand their relunctance to implement this authority the Congress has given them.
But here's the interesting part of the situation. When God says it's time, there will not be a single president, or all of them combined, that will delay the decision to declare Jerusalem as the official capital of Israel.
In the meantime, read their rationale and the implications, and be glad you have faith in the God of your Bible.
