President Bush suspended moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel for six more months. The White House released a statement Tuesday announcing that the embassy would not move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem for the next half year because of national security concerns. Presidents have suspended the embassy move twice a year since the Jerusalem Embassy Act passed in 1995.
