The facts are indisputable. The facts are indisputable. While the Arabs in Gaza and Judah and Samaria, are claiming Jerusalem as their capital, it is interesting to note some interesting facts: Jerusalem has been the capital of the Jewish people since the reign of Kind David, almost 3000 years. Jerusalem has never been the capital of any Arab, Moslem, or so called “Palestinian” entity. Mohamad never set foot in Jerusalem. Jerusalem is not mentioned one time in the Koran. Jerusalem is mentioned over 600 times in the Jewish bible.
