There is still a chance that the United States will be forced to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital. At least on the passport's of people born in Jerusalem.

Bet Shemesh resident Dr. Ari Zivotofsky has spent a number of years fighting in court the decision to not include "Israel" on the passport of his son born in Jerusalem, leaving it only stating "Jerusalem". Zivotofsky has tried fighting this decision based on the decision of Congress to recognize that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Presidents Bush and Obama have overruled the decision by Congress and have decided foreign policy on tis matter.

In the latest surprise move, the United States Supreme Court has agreed to accept an appeal by Zivotofsky to hear the case.

From the Associated Press:

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal over whether an American born in Jerusalem can have Israel listed as his birthplace on his passport even though U.S. policy does not recognize the once-divided city as belonging to Israel.
The court said Monday it will review an appeals court ruling against Jerusalem-born Menachem Zivotofsky and his parents. They filed a lawsuit after State Department officials refused to list Israel as his birthplace.
Zivotofsky was born shortly after Congress directed that Americans born in Jerusalem may have Israel listed as their place of birth. But the Bush administration said Congress may not tell the president what to do regarding this aspect of foreign relations. The Obama administration agrees with its predecessor.
At issue is whether the congressional directive steps on the president's power.
