“For me, the Jew that I am, Jerusalem is above politics… Its presence in Jewish history is overwhelming. There is no more moving prayer in Jewish history than the one expressing our yearning to return to Jerusalem. To many theologians, it IS Jewish history, to many poets, a source of inspiration. It belongs to the Jewish people and is much more than a city, it is what binds one Jew to another in a way that remains hard to explain. When a Jew visits Jerusalem for the first time, it is not the first time; it is a homecoming. The first song I heard was my mother’s lullaby about and for Jerusalem. Its sadness and its joy are part of our collective memory.”
It’s time for Republicans, Democrats, and all Americans to come together to declare Jerusalem Israel’s eternal, undivided capital and for the greatest country on earth, the beacon of freedom and democracy to the world, the United States of America, to move its embassy to Jerusalem and end this nonsense once and for all.
