Israel's ambassador to the United States, Michael Oren, has told the Haaretz newspaper  that “U.S.-Israeli relations face their worst crisis in 35 years over Israel's recent announcement of its plan to build 1,600 new housing units in East Jerusalem."
The plan also shattered all hopes to resume Palestinian –Israeli talks which were suspended in December 2008 after Israel’s Cast Lead operation against Hamas.
