In this case, it’s the ninth paragraph, and it’s given woefully short shrift in a story that goes well over 1,000 words: “In 1995, Congress passed a law requiring America to move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, but every president since then has declined to make the move, citing national security interests.”
