Game is over for Jerusalem ... Almost!
I haven't posted on my blog for quite long time as I made the pledge not to touch it until I submit my PhD thesis. But I couldn't resist the email I received from my friend Diana about the judaization of the Holy City of Al-Quds (Jerusalem). As a member of the Coalition for Jerusalem, The Palestinian Counseling Center has been doing a great confronting the the Israeli plans to judaize the city. Their latest achievement is a complete English and Arabic unofficial translation of the proposed Israeli Master Plan for Jerusalem "Jerusalem 2000". In addition, they published a preliminary report on the implications of the plan on Occupied East Jerusalem (and in Arabic as well).
You can find the full translation here (and Arabic). Alternatively, you can go directly to the individual sections using the following links (Arabic links below)
