Our third rally in a row this past Wednesday against the reopening of a US consulate for Palestinians in Jerusalem, with a simultaneous rally in NY organized by our dear AFSI friends, received lots of coverage. CNN opened its news report with it:

Prior to the rally we held a tour of Atarot and the Shimon Hatsadik neighborhood, with a clear message to our leaders that it isn’t enough to declare that there will be no consulate for Palestinians in Jerusalem- we demand deeds on the ground that show that Jerusalem will be the united and undivided capital of Israel. These deeds must include the expansion of Jerusalem and turn it into a metropolis and building of thousands of units in Atarot, Shimon Hatsadik and Givat Hamatos.
About our special tour to both places:
A Jerusalem Sovereignty tour in the north and east of the Capital
