Adelson is offering to help subsidize the cost of building the embassy in Jerusalem which could run to $500M+

Using private money for government work seems like it could create serious conflict of interest.

I think sovereign nations should be able to declare what city is their capital.

Considering that ALL “gov money “ is either from PRIVATE money or borrowed, I don’t understand your conflict?

Addelson owns Trump. He was biggest donor. The embassy move was a promise to him. The swamp is full of Zionists.

Yup. They've driven this country off a cliff in the name of putting Israel in front of American interests.

Why would we not locate our embassy near a country's government offices?

I say let Adelson pay for the whole damn thing. We already have a perfectly good embassy in Tel Aviv, where the rest of the world has their embassies.

This is his pet project, let him pay for it.

Point being like the SOS staffer said "Would it become "Sheldon's Jerusalem US Embassy"? Would he get special treatment b/c he ponied up $$ to build it etc etc.

If private donors take on government program subsidies, they would expect some sort of reciprocation. Just ask HRC with Uranium 1.
