[Makor Rishon-Hebrew, 8Apr09] Tuli Fikrash - During Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat's recent visit to the U.S., Maariv headlined a story: "Barkat Enables Jewish Building in Eastern Jerusalem." After hearing about it, the mayor didn't quite understand the controversy. From his perspective, Jews are permitted to live in any section of Jerusalem. "The Israel Supreme Court has ruled that in the State of Israel and in Jerusalem in particular, Arabs may live in Jewish neighborhoods," he said last week. "Arabs live in the [Jewish] French Hill neighborhood of Jerusalem and the Supreme Court approved this. I'm adopting the perspective of the Supreme Court. Jews are also allowed to live in any part of the city, including the eastern part. It is their democratic, Jewish, and ideological right to live wherever they want." Mayor Barkat heads a coalition that includes 30 of the 31 members of the Jerusalem City Council. 2009-04-14 06:00:00Full Article
