Zeno

Current occupation by a weird melange of atheist zionists and religious psychos known as "ultra-orthodox". I have read many descriptions of it from before the 1948 seizure; it was beautiful city,now so surrounded by a circle of giant high-rise apartment complexes that you cannot even see the sun set.

SARA

Al- Aqsa Mosque which is the 3rd holiest Mosques in Islam and the first Qibla (prayer direction).

Isra'a an Miraj, the Magical journey of our beloved prophet Mohamed (saw).

My birthplace, my mom's birthplace and my grandmother's birth place.

Janoobee

"Occupied" Jerusalem, taken away from its righteous owners the Palestinians

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones to death those who have been sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling!

The Crusades. Some things never change.

I think of a city that could unite but instead seems to divide. If the three religions were in kindergarden, they'd all get held back a year for not having the social development to get along with others.

Einav

i think of the kotel and orthodox jews.

The Kotel.

Yes, interesting the way Muslims felt it was perfectly fine to go and stick a ruddy great mosque slapbang on the very place where the holiest Jewish site had been...

Can anyone imagine the sheer madness with which the world's Muslims would respond if ANYONE, let alone Jews, DARED do that to one of THEIR holy sites???

When I hear 'Jerusalem' I think first of the Kotel, the remaining wall of the second Jewish temple. It was standing there before Islam EVEN EXISTED.

Oh - and I also think of how Jordan treated the Jewish and Christian holy sites when it controlled Jerusalem. Jordan turned their sites into HORSE STABLES.

Jerusalem - Yerushalayim shel zahav :) jerusalem of gold :) home of the jewish people , our capital , the place of the temple where gods presence once rested and the site of the temple that will be rebuilt when the moshiach comes :)

and your word - sounds a bit like Isa- arabic for jesus - or maybe how you heard ''aqsah - as in al aqsa - dome of the rock - in arabic ?

Jesus.

Not familiar w/ Aisah, but it looks feminine from the spelling.

I think of the skyline of typical flat topped building, dome tops and the beautiful Muslim style.

My yarmulke has the skyline stitched in silver around it and it makes me think it has so much potential for peace.

My boyfriend bought it for me from Jerusalem.

Simple Simon

I hear it first as JEWsalem.
Some say that this is by accident, that the word is not Jewish.
Sometimes accidents are made high in the sky.
