That about sums it up.
Pro-Trump Signs in Jerusalem: ‘Trump, Make Israel Great’
JERUSALEM, Israel — Several main streets of Jerusalem are bedecked in Israeli and American flags in celebration of the upcoming transfer of the U.S. embassy to the city on Monday — and one major intersection in the center of the city features an explicit pro-Trump message.
“Trump, make Israel great,” says one. “Trump is a friend of Zion,” says another.
The signs reflect the mood in Israel, where President Donald Trump is rapidly becoming a hero, thanks in part to his decision to move the embassy, as well as his decision on Tuesday to pull the U.S. out of the nuclear deal with Iran.
But they also represent the specific institution that paid for the signs to occupy their present position near the Old City: the Friends of Zion Museum.
The museum opened in 2015 and “presents a technologically advanced, interactive experience that tells the story of the dream of restoration of the Jewish people to their historic homeland and the brave non-Jews who assisted them in the realization of that dream,” according to its website.
It also “serves as a platform for fighting BDS and Anti-Semitism internationally.”
BDS — “boycott, divestment, and sanctions” — is a movement that aims to isolate Israel culturally and economically as well as diplomatically.
With or without the museum, pro-Trump sentiment is riding high in Israel.

Israeli taxi driver brings up @realDonaldTrump. “Yesterday was a big day... Trump is giving his soul for Israel... He has giant balls... There’s no one like him.” Says last night’s IDF attack on Iranian missile sites in Syria (if that’s what it was) put folks at ease in Tel Aviv.— Joel B. Pollak (@joelpollak) May 9, 2018
“He’s not a politician. He does what he says he will do,” an Israeli taxi driver told Breitbart News.
