US Vice-President considers Israeli embassy relocation [CLIPS]

United States Vice President Mike Pence has fueled speculation that
the Trump administration will move it's embassy in Israel from Tel
Aviv to Jerusalem.

The move is strongly opposed by the Palestinians who also claim
ownership of the city and by many US allies who see the move as a
roadblock to peace.

Donald Trump backed the move during the presidential campaign but has
backed off the issue somewhat since becoming president.

But in a speech to the highly influential pro-Israel U.S. lobby group
AIPAC- Pence said the option of moving the embassy is still very much
on the table.

Republicans pull Trump's health care bill; no vote - UPDATED

Donald Trump and US Republicans have pulled their bill to repeal and replace Obamacare, since they lacked the votes to pass it in the House of Representatives.

This is a big blow for the President, who's repeatedly vowed to get rid of Barack Obama's health care plan - and who's billed himself as a successful dealmaker.

Democrats unanimously opposed the bill, and a number of Republicans were also against it- some thinking it was too similar to Obamacare, with others citing opposition to it from their own constituents, afraid of losing their coverage.

Donald Trump blamed Democrats for the bill's failure.
