Netanyahu: Jerusalem Will Remain Undivided under Israeli Sovereignty
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Jerusalem historically has been the only capital of the Jewish people, and so it will remain, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Sunday at the official Jerusalem Day ceremony. "We need to tell the truth, without fear. This is where we began our path as a nation, this is our home and this is where we will stay." "Only under Israeli rule will there be freedom of worship for all religions in Jerusalem. Believers pray at their holy sites not in spite of our rule in the city, but precisely because of it." "We will forever preserve an undivided Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty....Who opposes our presence in Jerusalem? Those who refuse to recognize our right to exist as a sovereign nation in our own state."
