East Jerusalem        2015

 

Israel captured East Jerusalem

in the Six-Day War

against Arab nations (...).


Israel annexed

heavily Palestinian East Jerusalem,

declaring it part of Israel.

 

The Israeli move

has never been recognized

by the rest of the world,

and the Palestinians are seeking

that part of the city

for the capital of a future state.

Holy City / Jerusalem        2013

 

the historic Old City:

a small walled enclave

of less than one square kilometre

within the sprawling city

that is Jerusalem,

divided into loose quarters

for Muslims, Jews,

Christians and Armenians.

 

It is the heart

of the decades-old

Israeli-Palestinian conflict,

the centre for the world's

three great monotheistic religions,

and a magnet

for pilgrims and tourists

from all over the world.

 

In this crucible of faith,

priests, rabbis and imams

brush past bare-limbed backpackers

as they make their way

over the treacherously smooth flagstones

of its narrow alleyways.

 

Gaggles of pilgrims

from Eastern Europe,

West Africa and Latin America

jostle with ultra-orthodox Jews

and devout Muslims on their way to pray

at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre,

the Western Wall or the Al-Aqsa mosque.

Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa mosque        2014-2017

 

The closure

of Jerusalem's al-Aqsa mosque

sparks protests

outside the holy site on Thursday.

 

The Palestinian president,

Mahmoud Abbas,

called the closure a 'declaration of war',

while Israeli prime minister

Binyamin Netenyahu,

condemned Abbas's comments

as incitement.

 

The mosque

has been closed to all visitors

following an attempted murder

of a far-right rabbi,

Yehuda Glick

Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa mosque        2002

 

Ariel Sharon

risks provoking another Palestinian backlash

over control of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

as he decides in the coming days what to do

about a large and unstable bulge in a wall

of one of Islam's holiest sites.

 

Archaeologists

have warned the prime minister

that without urgent repairs

the mount's southern wall

and buildings attached to it

- including the al-Aqsa mosque -

could collapse on some of the hundreds

of thousands of Muslim worshippers

who are expected to visit during Ramadan,

which begins next month.

The Palestinians want

a state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem

— territories Israel captured in the 1967 war —        2013

 

(...)

 

Since 1967,

Israel has built dozens of settlements

in the West Bank and east Jerusalem

that are now home to 560,000 Israelis —

an increase of 60,000

since Obama became president four years ago,

settler officials say.
