It’s a sad day when jews are fighting jews over the importance of Jerusalem. For the record Jerusalem is and will always be of upmost importance to us. We may not agree with everything but the fact is that the holy city is now in Jewish hands and we have to thank hashem for giving the IDF the power to reclaim it.
As for pre 48 logic, Arabs were killing Jews in Palestine before the modern state….
With so much infighting no wonder we are still in galus
