Jerusalem: The Media Myth of Two Cities

As HonestReporting observed:

“The history of Jerusalem did not start in 1967. Thousands of years of Jewish history took place in what is now called “Arab East Jerusalem.” Only when the Jewish residents were driven from their homes in 1948 [by Jordanian forces] was the city divided between East and West.”

This HR video shows the reality of Jerusalem, which today is celebrating 45 years of reunification.
