Israelis chant 'death to Arabs' in annual march through Jerusalem's Muslim Quarter
www.abc.net.au
Held In the shadow of the Gaza war, one of the most prominent banners held by those marching read "Jerusalem in our hands, 1967. Gaza in our hands, 2025".

Thousands of Israeli nationalists took part in the controversial Jerusalem Day “Dance of the Flags”.

The event is provocative to the Palestinian population, given it marks the anniversary of Israel seizing East Jerusalem and the Old City, and the group marches through the Muslim Quarter of the Old City.

Jerusalem’s status is one of the most divisive issues in the discussion about a two-state solution, with both Israelis and Palestinians believing it is intrinsically linked to their identity.

    The Israelites and Arabs have been quarreling ever since they existed.

    Yeah… no. The Muslim world was the most tolerant place of Jews in the world (well, the part of the world where Jews existed, anyway) until the 20th century. It wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows don’t get me wrong, but there was no “quarreling” between Muslims and Jews. In fact, it was Muslims who allowed Jews back into their holy land after the Romans had kicked them out.
