Former US diplomat, Michael Springmann, believes that moving the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem al-Quds is “a guarantee of future trouble and a tremendous mistake” that will destroy any American credibility in the region.

Springmann told Press TV that US President Donald Trump is “crazy enough and inexperienced enough to do what (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu wants,” but warned that any such move could trigger the third Palestinian Intifada.
