Yom Yerushalayim

Today is Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day), a day celebrating the reunification of Jerusalem in 1967. The day is marked in Israel with ceremonies and memorials.

Here's some of the original transmissions from that day. I find them to be incredibly moving.
(There are subtitles.)


May Jerusalem ever stand as a symbol of the peace and hope and freedom.

Pretty regular posts on this blog keep me right in the thick of the Real Jerusalem Streets.
