"In the Palms of their Hands" is the video presented at the annual Yom Yerushalayim Dinner of American Friends of Ateret Cohanim. This video documentary produced under the direction of Danny Finkelman of Sparks Next, follows two women who live in the "Old City" and the Yemenite Village (today referred to as East Jerusalem and Silwan). It shows their commitment to Jerusalem as the eternal capital of the Jewish people. On the heels of the historic move of the US Embassy to Jerusalem, this is a must watch Music included by Ehud Banai and Aaron Razel
the video brings to light the work of the American Friends of Ateret Cohanim which has supported the efforts of Ateret Cohanim in Israel to renew the once thriving communities of the Old Jewish Quarter, today called the Muslim and Christian Quarters. American Friends seeks to strengthen the Jewish presence in these areas by providing for the social, emotional and security needs of those families and students who live in and around the Old City. These Israelis, who have chosen to redeem the holiest city of all, face a daily barrage of violence from their Arab neighbors. Despite the hostility and hatred, these brave families continue to exhibit their desire to live in a united Jerusalem and remain strong.
“The families and their young children living here guarantee a future united Jerusalem, not bound by quarters and division, but rather bound by love and peace in the eternal capital of the Jewish people” said Shani Hikind of American Friends of Ateret Cohanim. “These amazing individuals are the definition of our motto, ‘Making the Old City Young Again.’ They need our constant support and we are here to insure that support.”

NO MORE RACISM.
NO MORE SENSELESS HATRED.
NO MOSLEM EDICTS FORBIDDING SALE OF PROPERTIES TO JEWS IN ISRAEL.
No Death Sentence or Torture of Arabs selling land to Jews in Jerusalem !!!
Isam Akel is both a US and Israeli Arab citizen, who was recently abducted by the PA and tortured under their watch.
His "crime" according to the PA - involvement in selling a property to Jews.
The actions of the PA in Jerusalem, is unacceptable and goes against all signed agreements and accords with the PA.
Enough is enough to such shameful, undemocratic and racist acts.
We dont want another Saudi-Khashoggi incident !!!
American Friends of Ateret Cohanim believes in peace and coexistance between Arabs and Jews, with each having the democratic right to buy and live in safety and security, in each and every neighbourhood in Jerusalem.
We abhor the use of violence and object to the arrest and torture of any Arab by HAMAS OR THE PA, for their possible, alleged or otherwise involvement in the selling a property
in or around the Old City of Jerusalem, to Jewish concerns.
Support our efforts against racism, Moslem fundamentalism and undemocratic Moslem edicts.
