Today, it's Jerusalem Day, where we celebrate the reunification of the legendary city and liberation from Jordan's vicious takeover that lasted for 2 decades until 1967. I'm going to point to this item by Isi Leibler, who's a contributor for the Jerusalem Post, about some of the history, and how, if there's any problems that need to be dealt with now, it's the Obama administration, and the Islamists, who refuse to recognize Israel's right to it's city.Also, here's the prime minister's speech for the occasion. (See also here.)
Moshe Yaalon says that without Jerusalem, there would be no Tel Aviv.
John Bolton will be speaking at a special NYC dinner for Jerusalem reclamation.
100,000 are reported to take part in "Rikudegalim" (Flag Dance), the special march where tons of people carry Israeli flags.
