The harsh term is due to the scale of the damage associated with the blow to the image of the Patriot air defense system and the established lies of the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Someone has to answer for this.

"...From what I read this morning, there is no doubt that there will be those who will try to disrupt the celebrations...

"The flag march and the ascension of Jews to the Temple Mount, undeterred by threats leveled against them, is a message to the world that the Israel Police are guarding Jerusalem...and with God's help Jerusalem will be painted blue and white tomorrow."

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Jerusalem Day Greetings.

"Citizens of Israel, on Jerusalem Day we again raise Jerusalem above our highest joy [see Psalms 137:6].

However, the truth is that our people have done this day in day out, year in year out, for hundreds of years: 'Next year in Jerusalem'.

Indeed, we have returned to our country. By the middle of the19th century, there was already a Jewish majority in Jerusalem.


Of course, it took another 100 years until we established our state with Jerusalem as our official capital. It took another 19 years until that fateful day in 1967, when we liberated Jerusalem and reunited it.

We reunited it. It broke new horizons. It became a city, a giant metropolis in Israel. We are building it up.

We are building in it and we are allowing all of its residents better lives in our eternal capital.


We are committed to safeguarding the security of Jerusalem, to ensuring its prosperity and to continuing its momentum.

We are also doing this against all of the threats around us, most recently in Operation Shield and Arrow, but constantly.

While the threats are certainly not ceasing, our ability to deal confront our enemies, repel them and ensure our security in Jerusalem and throughout our state is a constant struggle; together we can win.

This is also a splendid day on which to celebrate our return to our eternal capital, which has been our capital for over 3,000 years.

There has been nothing like this in the world but it is here, in the center of our world, Jerusalem.

Happy Jerusalem Day.

For over 3,300 years, Jerusalem was the Jewish capital. It was never the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity.

Even under Jordanian rule,(East) Jerusalem was not made the capital, and no Arab leader came to visit it.

Jerusalem is mentioned over 700 times in the bible, but not once is it mentioned in the Qur’an.


King David founded Jerusalem; Mohammed never set foot in it.

Jews pray facing Jerusalem; Muslims face Mecca. If they are between the two cities, Muslims pray facing Mecca, with their backs to Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is God's Holy City.

Happy Jerusalem Day 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
