Hebron Ties and Lies
(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - No matter what was decided by UNESCO, there is no denying the Jews' ties to Hebron. Those ties are deeper and arguably date back earlier than the Jews' ties to Jerusalem. King David consolidated his rule in Hebron after Saul's death. King Herod built the wall that still surrounds the Cave of the Patriarchs. Have UNESCO officials not heard of the Bible, Google or Wikipedia? Their vote is a form of propaganda. Rewriting history hinders and further complicates efforts to reach a political solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
