The Fight for Jerusalem
The sirens that sounded in Jerusalem over the past week revealed just how deep the division is within the city.
The Middle East today is not what it was in early 2009, the last time Israel went on the offensive to reduce the missile fire coming out of Gaza. This month marked the first time rocket fire warning sirens have gone off in Jerusalem. It was the first time the “City of Peace” has ever been targeted by Hamas rockets, and it was the first time in 42 years that a rocket had been aimed at Jerusalem.
