I had a Jesuit as a history teacher. In a private conversation with him, he admitted that Israel's success in the 1967 war "rocked" the Catholic theological world. If for two millennium the Jews exile amongst the nations of the world reaffirmed christian theology - the Jewish People are cursed and the Christians are the "new Jews," that truism lost its luster. In light of the reunification of Jerusalem and Israel 's control of the biblical lands of Judea and Samaria, the church would have to find some other way to support it's claim of being the 'one true religion.'
I read this excellent article by Nacham when he first released on his page a couple days ago. Christianity, Islam and Secularism have all claimed Jerusalem for their own. None have been able to hold on to it. Only Judaism can rightfully claim the holy city and in 1967 God's covenant was proven to never have expired with the Jewish people. Jerusalem is primarily a Jewish city, and the world has always tried to make it "a city for everyone." They attempt to dilute its Jewish particularity by spinning it as a "shared city", a "holy basin" or a "spiritual capital of humanity." That's complete and utter bull****! Look, should there be religious freedom for all in the city? Of course. Do the Palestinians have a rightful claim to parts of East Jerusalem? Sure. But Jerusalem at the end of the day, is the eternal and undivided capital of the state of Eretz-Israel! There is no disputing this! God's word is clear on this matter! The international community can tolerate Jewish longing for Jerusalem, but it cannot tolerate Jewish ownership of the city. Well, that's just too d*** bad! The Jewish people built, and owned Jerusalem look before any of you were shot out of your daddy's n** s**k! In 1967, the IDF liberated the holy city from an oppressive illegal occupation by the Jordanians. The Jordanians ethnically cleansed all the Jews from the city, banned them from ever visiting their holy sites and by them I don't just mean Israelis but ALL Jews, destroyed sacred synagogues, desecrated Jewish cemeteries and used Jewish tombstones for building material, and built a whole town over the sacred Mount of Olives. When Israel took the Eastern portion of the holy city and finally reunited Jerusalem, they restored access to holy sites for Jews. Does that sound like colonization or liberation to you? Are the terrorist attacks by Jewish extremists on Christians concerning and disgusting? Of course, and I call on the IDF, Security Services and Shin Bet to do all they can to put a stop to them and bring the perpetrators to justice. But that in no way invalidates the Jewish ownership of the holy city. By the way, it's also absolute bull*** Jews and Christians can't pray at the Temple Mount. That needs to change! I call on Israel to launch a lighting raid similar to that they pulled off at Entebbe in 1978 to take the Temple Mount back and open it up to prayer for all religions! The Status Quo at the Temple Mount is utter horse****!
The folk in China, Taiwan, India, and Asian nations practicing the Shinto, Buddhist, or Hindu faiths do not care much about Jerusalem. It is only of concern to Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
Yes that is partially true. It is still amazing to see South Korean education curriculum includes some form of "Talmud." You can travel from one end of Japan to the other and in every village and city there are pro-Israel groups thrilled to meet you. China is a bit different but even there Israel is recognized as a world leader in technology. So yes, I doubt if they care about Jerusalem persee but Jews and Judaism? You might be surprised.
Israel won the Contract to secure Jerusalem militarily for The Christian West. Most of Christendom supports The Jewish People because of this reality. Please get the facts right. Am Yisroel Chai.
As usual, it's all about religion and all about ethnocentrism. More than half the world has absolutely no care or attachment to Jerusalem. That fact is irrelevant to the author, as half of the world does not at all matter to him. For him, there is no civilization outside the 3 Abrahamic religions. Talk about elevating what you want and disregarding what does not fit the narrative. papa j
I happen to be Jewish and a very strong warrior in the fight against antisemitism and for the state of Israel. If i were a younger man, I would have joined the IDF. Only in the mind of someone who looks at everything as antisemitism and Jew hating would come to your conclusion about my statement. papa j
If the rest of the world doesn't care about Jerusalem,then there is no need for them to mentioned in an article about Jerusalem. But I would say that most of the world does in fact care. That care is seen in the vast majority votes in the UN against Israel.
How was 1967 a loss for “Christians”?

Another Jew hater wanting to erase us. The author is 100% correct. You goyim just can’t handle the truth
I happen to be Jewish and a very strong warrior in the fight against antisemitism and for the state of Israel. If i were a younger man, I would have joined the IDF.

None of your points stand up in the slightest.
