The Battle For Jerusalem

Israel In Yellow On Map

The battle for Jerusalem has begun.

Jerusalem, the capital of Israel,location of the Temple Mount and the site of the first and second Jewish temples, is the holiest site in Judaism and has been the increasing focus of media attention around the world very recently.

 For over 3,000 years, Jerusalem, founded by the Biblical or Hebrew Scripture's King David, was the Jewish capital, and Israel first became a state in 1312 B.C. two millennia before islam.

Jerusalem has never ever been the capital of any muslim or arab entity. Jews always pray facing Jerusalem, muslims face Mecca, with their backs to Jerusalem and Mohammed never set foot in Jerusalem. Jerusalem is not mentioned once in the Qu'ran, but mentioned over 700 times in the Holy Bible. The arabs in Jerusalem have been doing all they can do to destroy precious archaeological relics that without a doubt prove the Jewish presence in the land of Israel and particularly Jerusalem before islam.

So why do the arabs want Jerusalem for its capital of another arab state inside of Israel? Because they don't want the Jews to have it.

On May 14, 1948, the Palestinian Jews declared their state of Israel on land given to them under the British Mandate, even though it was only a fraction of the land that was originally allocated to the Jews under the Mandate. One day later, Egypt, TransJordan, Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Yeman declared war on the Holocaust survivors and the new state of Israel, and lost, as they have every succeeding war they have started, five in all. What has resulted in the last 60 years is constant terror attacks to this very day upon Israelis and the land of Israel by these arab sponsosring neighbors, even though Egypt and Jordan claim a peace treaty with Israel. The arab states didn't want the Jewish people as neighbors in 1948 and they don't want them as neighbors now.

It can very easily be concluded that the arabs involved in the Middle East conflict with the Jews have no respect for life, not arab or Jew.

 In spite of the vast area of land that the arab states occupy in their 22 states, these so called 'palestinians', who are 'palestinian arabs' known as refugees from arab-Israeli wars, all started by the arab states, over the last 60 years, were deliberately prevented from being taken in by their own arab states. They are the only group of people who have been refused by their own ethnic group to take them and integrate them into their own country after times of war. The Jews, on the other hand, have taken in thousands of these arab refugees, and even granted them citizenship of Israel.

So here we are, 60 years later, and nothing's changed with the arabs. And the battle for Jerusalem has now begun.

"Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about it, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem." Zechariah 12:2 "And it shall come to pass in that day, I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem." 12:9
