Israel and The Sin of Expulsion

In contrast to the false, anti-Jewish, and anti-Israeli propaganda, here are the real facts:

* Hebron , a Jewish City

From the standpoint of some of the Israeli and international public, Hebron is an “Arab city.” This view is occasioned by Hebron’s location over the “Green Line,” its current demographic situation (tens of thousands of Arabs alongside only around 1,000 Jews in the inner city, plus 7,000 or so in adjacent Kiryat Arba), and incessant propaganda by the Left. History, however, did not begin in 1967. No cultured person who has studied Bible and ancient and modern history can deny the facts: Hebron is the first Jewish city in history. It is the place where the Jewish national patriarchs lived and were buried. Their burial plot-Ma’arat HaMachpela, the Tomb of the Patriarchs-was the first Jewish property purchased in the Land of Israel, and one of the Jewish people’s most impressive monuments was built atop it. Hebron is an object of yearning for Jews throughout the Diaspora and is
numbered among the four holy cities (along with Jerusalem, Tiberias, and Safed). The Jewish community in Hebron existed for thousands of years until it was brutally displaced in 1929-after Arab marauders murdered, raped, and burned to death scores of Jews and dispossessed the community of properties that included hundreds of acres of real estate. read more
