Though this ancient Jewish cabal created a politically effective design, it unfortunately moved the people to become more ethnocentric than theocentric. They forgot the key terms of the contract (covenant) that they were commissioned by God to accomplish. They were supposed to explain the Divine Guidance to The Humanity, while establishing The Salat and creating a chaste fiscal system free of the policy of usury.
Instead they de-prioritized The Torah, and prioritized their tribalistic, man made Jewish traditions. They gave up on proselytizing altogether. They consequently waxed proud, and evoked God's Wrath by choosing the Jewish supremacist politicians and priests over The egalitarian idealist Prophets. Some they denied. Others they murdered. Both sins of omission and commission led to their loss of Divine Favor. Without a doubt, they were disowned by the Holy Prophet they claimed as their prophetic patriarch, The Prophet Israel (Yaqoob, Jacob). And as a result they were expelled from The Land of Canaan because they reneged on the terms of The Covenant (Divine Contract), and became ethnocentric instead of theocentric.
"Said Ayyash, the boy's father, blamed the Israeli government for the shooting: "This is not the first time that the government brought settlers into the middle of a crowded neighborhood," he said.
"This is not haphazard, but part of a policy. The situation in Jerusalem is very difficult and will continue to deteriorate due to the policy of the municipality and the government, who want to raze homes."
The Israeli left also linked the refusal of Jerusalem city mayor, Nir Barkat, to evacuate Beit Yonatan to the killing: "The killing of the youth is a direct result of the lack of willingness of the mayor to evacuate the home and to evict the settlers who took it over by force," said Peace Now director Yariv Oppenheimer."
Thanx alot for this good report, for me as palestinian living in neighborhood called ( ras el amoud) in east jerusalem where the settlers disturb us every night to force palestinians to leave their houses and buy it.i see this fact
setllers in a such places have many facilities from the israeli goverment, For exampke Mr Alisha mention that the setllers building is 7 floors, while in east jerusalem ( jerusalem muncipaltiy ) will not alow any palestinian with or without building permition to do it...its the only big building in east jerusalem.
thanx again and i hope to see more reportsin such quality

It's time you learned the facts and stopped assuming that Jerusalem is on the table. You're a journalist. Remember your job is to remain objective and not to assume facts or conclusions. Arab neighborhoods...dividing Jerusalem. It will not happen. Try reporting, not planting your own hateful agenda.
