The White House forgot its own policy on Yerushalayim on Friday, reports McClatchy.
The administration initially sent out a copy of President Barack Obama’s remarks at former Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres’ levayah in Yerushalayim, indicating that the remarks had been given in Yerushalayim, Israel.
That was, actually, 100% correct.
But later Erev Shabbos afternoon, the press office sent out a correction to the previous email, striking out “Israel” from the header of the transcript.
U.S. policy – a mistaken one, of course – has long refrained from recognizing any nation’s sovereignty over Yerushalayim.
A 2015 Supreme Court decision reaffirmed U.S. practice that forbids Americans born in Yerushalayim to list Israel as their country of birth on passports.

That was not a mistake. In G-d’s book there are NO mistakes.
Yerushlaim is Eretz Yisroel for “thousands of years” already and no president can change that
Freudian error!
