A four-story billboard in Jerusalem at the Friends of Zion Heritage Center says it all: “Thank you and Happy New Year, President Trump – you’re making Israel greater.”When US Vice President Mike Pence visits Israel, he will be royally welcomed by the Friends of Zion Museum with "over 110 billboards, buses, and even camels."Every head of state who moves his or her country’s embassy to Jerusalem will receive the Friend of Zion Award from the pro-Israel group as well, the Museum said in a press release, after heaping praise on US President Donald Trump for recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital earlier this month and announcing the United States would move its embassy there."For over 700 million evangelical Bible believers globally, Trump is an answer to a prayer."Dr. Mike Evans, founder of the Friends of Zion Museum in Jerusalem, has established a massive pro-Israel social network across the globe with 5,952,500 followers in India, 5,777,607 in Indonesia, and 3,685,561 in the Philippines.A camel outside the Old City sports a 'God Bless Trump' banner in celebration of the US President's declaration recognizing the city as Israel's capital.
