henryporter2 — May 10, 2010 — When Israel liberated the Temple Mount on June 7th, 1967, the prophetic clock began ticking anew. The place where King David and his son Solomon first built the Holy Temple is back in the hands of their descendants. Come what may, the Holy Temple will be rebuilt!
This amazing historical clip, shows the leader describing entering in the "Ir HaAtikah/The (beloved) "Old City", going through the gates, Later, someone shouts "Har HaBayit B'Yadeinu" /The Temple Mount is in our hands! It show how miraculous it was to to return after years of exile and enter the Temple Mount. The leader thanks Hashem for the return with a hardy prayer while other soldiers, all coming from different Jewish backgrounds and observance & non-observance, respond with a huge "Amen!". Further in the clip, they raise a flag while singing the Haktivah/Israel's national anthem and then proceeded towards the Kotel HaMa'aravi/Western Wall.

Jerusalem (1982)
Today's Golden Oldie is a Dry Bones cartoon I did 28 years ago in 1982.
Tonight is erev Yom Yerushalayim, the eve of Jerusalem Day, which marks the happy day in 1967 when Jerusalem was liberated and thus became open to all faiths. It reminds us of the Double Standard exhibited by a world that is not bothered by the Saudi closing of the "Holy City" of Mecca to all non-Muslims.
Below are a few Saudi highway signs.
Happy Jerusalem Day!!
