NEWSRAEL: The message from Biden's administration are clear: We are tearing down anything the Trump administration did. Stop building in Jerusalem, and when we open the Palestinian consulate, Jerusalem will once again be divided. Oh, and don't attack Iran!

Bennett nods and gives in.

The US Secretary of State told the prime minister in a telephone conversation between them that "unilateral measures should be avoided that will increase tensions." Bennett answered that this was a decision of the Jerusalem District Committee that would convene on Monday and not of the political echelon, even though the government had a direct influence on its deliberations.

According to a political source involved in the details of the conversation, regarding the construction plan in the Atarot neighborhood in East Jerusalem, this is a decision of the city district committee, which has not yet reached the door of the political echelon.

However, the words of the political source are inaccurate, as the Prime Minister's Office has a direct influence on the district committee's deliberations, and Bennett and his people have dealt with the issue intensively in recent weeks.
