Happy Jerusalem Day

Today is the day we celebrate the time when back in 1967, Israel liberated this city from Jordanian rule.

Now you've probably heard that the US ambassador to Israel decided to go the route of some EU ambassadors and boycott the invitation they were sent. That's certainly a disgrace that all they can do is rudely shun a polite invitation to join in a festivity, showing only that they've failed to rise above anti-Israelism. The mayor, Uri Lupolianski, said it right when he said:
"Anyone who doesn't recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the state of Israel does not recognize the state of Israel." -- Jerusalem Mayor Uri Lupolianski, in response to EU, US ambassadors' boycott of Jerusalem Day. 05/13/2007
Oh, he's right about that. I'd say that's exactly why the reader, on the other hand, can show their solidarity by joining in the festivities that these ambassadors can't or won't.

So enjoy Jerusalem Day, and I hope it'll be good.

Others on the subject include Woman Honor Thyself, Jerusalem Diaries, Maggie's Farm, Zionism and Aliyah, Stand for Justice, Cosmic X.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
