Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad said Saturday that the Palestinian people will celebrate the Holy Fire vigil in Jerusalem next year.Big Deal. The Palestinians have been saying this for what, 40 years?
Speaking at the end of Easter celebrations in Bethlehem, Fayyad said, "Next year, Inshallah (God willing), we shall celebrate in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in east Jerusalem, the capital of the Palestinian state."
"Our people, joined by all humanity, will celebrate the creation of the Palestinian independent state on all 1967 borders, a state whose capital shall be Jerusalem," Fayyad added.
He continued, "We want this state to be based on the principles of humanity and justice represented in this holiday; our people strive to free themselves from the burden of occupation through popular resistance and setting positive facts on the ground." (Ynetnews)
We've been saying this for 2000 years and we have returned.
Chag Sameach.

I was hysterical when I read this on Ynet; they try to steal all our Holy sites, named after members of our Tribe, so what is going to stop them from stealing our holidays too, especially when it's our Yerushalayim!?
