Jerusalem

This is an insightful study of that seeks to protect the unique cultures and traditions of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is one of the world's unique cities - more than twenty times it has been the object of invading conquerors. Yet it has managed to maintain its Arabic culture and traditions in the face of overwhelming odds - successfully emerging time and time again. But, beginning with its part occupation in 1948, its full occupation in 1967, and continuing through today, the Israeli claim on Jerusalem and the government's efforts to change its identity, threatens, finally, to eradicate the traditional Arab culture of the city. Professor Ghosheh argues against this eradication in a study that is informative and demanding.
