(Ynet News) Kobi Nahshoni - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attended the traditional Jerusalem Day rally at the Mercaz Harav yeshiva on Tuesday, where he said, "We never gave up on the connection to Jerusalem - not when the Temple was destroyed for the first or second time and not afterwards." "The struggle for Jerusalem is a struggle for the truth," he said. "We are building it, will continue to build it and to develop it." Netanyahu added that while there were attempts to portray Israel as a foreign invader, "No other people are as connected to their capital as the Jewish people are to Jerusalem."
