One Jerusalem: 60 Minutes Does Hatchet Job On Jewish People

CBS has just aired an anti-Jewish segment on Israeli plans for Jerusalem.  The segment is filled with angry Arabs and Jews (including the Mayor of Jerusalem) peppered with questions that presume that scientifically exposing Jewish history is a crime against humanity and an impediment to peace.


We reported on a recent attack by Arab youth on an Israeli car. We showed how the Arab press tried to make the civilian Jewish driver  the perpetrator of a crime when, in fact, the rock throwing Arab youths started the confrontation and then faked injures. Well 60 minutes just gave credence to the distorted Arab side.

Reporter Leslie Stahl used every interview to paint the Jews as the aggressors who are hell bent on defying the world.

She did not give Israel any credit for opening up the city to all people, after it had been blocked off to Jews and many Christians between 1948 and 1967. Her hit piece did not attempt to gather facts, it set out to brand Israel as an international criminal for standing up for its rights.

We applaud the Mayor of Jerusalem and the representative of the City of David for speaking the truth and refusing to be cowed into falsehoods by 60 Minutes.

Let 60 Minutes know Jerusalem is Israel's capital and should remain united under the State of Israel because Israel allows all people to worship and visit
