NETANYAHU: ISRAEL WILL NEVER GIVE UP THE TEMPLE MOUNT AND THE CITY OF JERUSALEM
At a special session in honour of Jerusalem Day and the 50th anniversary of the city’s reunification, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made it clear that Israel will never give up the Temple Mount and the Old City of Jerusalem. He said Jerusalem will remain the eternal capital of the Jews and the Temple Mount and the Western Wall will stay under Israeli sovereignty forever.
“We will not go back to a situation in which we can look at the Western Wall, but cannot approach it,” the Prime Minister stated. “To you, the members of the Knesset, the citizens of Israel and to the entire world, I want to make it clear: The Temple Mount and the Western Wall will stay under Israeli sovereignty forever.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said while the enemies see the Six Day War as a catastrophe, he sees it as a salvation and miracle. He recognized that there are those that desire to erase the Jewish historical connection to Jerusalem and deprive them of their eternal capital. He said President Donald Trump’s visit to the Western Wall in his visit to Israel, destroyed UNESCO’S propaganda and lies which were aimed at denying the Jewish ties to its eternal capital, Jerusalem.
“The black cloud over Jerusalem disappeared 50 years ago,” he said. “How could we have continued to exist with such narrow boarders, with daily threats to our existence and to our citizens’ lives?” he asked.
“Over the years, Jerusalem was only our capital, no one’s,” he stated, mentioning that “only under our control did it have freedom of religion. “Jerusalem is built, blossoming, open for everyone, and respects followers of all religions. We are the ones who liberated Jerusalem from its continued neglect and distress. We are the ones who developed the city into what it is today,” he reiterated.
The Prime Minister declared to the whole world that Israel will never cede control over the Temple Mount and the City of Jerusalem. He spoke decisively that they will never give up their eternal capital.
