“Jerusalem Mayor: Build 50,000, not 1,600, New Jerusalem Homes”
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu
SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) Jerusalem mayor Nir Barkat said that the recent announcement of progress towards building 1,600 new homes in Ramat Shlomo, which the United States opposes, is only a small part of a projected 50,000 new homes for Jews and Arabs.
Barkat told Britains Sky News that he will not accept any American-pressured move to halt construction in parts of the city that the United States does not recognize as being under Israeli sovereignty. The concept of freezing building for Jews is one I don’t accept, he stated. I will never accept it.””
