The correct answer is FALSE.

Jerusalem is regarded as a holy location for the three main polytheistic religions: Christianism, Judaism and Islam.

  • It is central in the New Testament of the Bible, which is the part of the holy book gathers testimonies about the life of Jesus Christ and that is exclusive of the Christian faith. His crucifixion took place in Jerusalem.
  • In Sunni Islam, Jerusalem is the third holiest city after Mecca and Medina. Prophet Muhammad arrived there in his Night Journey, and it was the place where he ascended and spoke to God, according to the Quran

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Throughout its millennial history, Jerusalem was dominated by different peoples, being considered a holy sacred city for Christians, Moslems and Jews. For this reason, Jerusalem is a target for constant conflicts and disputes between Israelis and Palestinians, since both claim the right of the city to be named its capital.

Today the Jewish state of Israel regards the city of Jerusalem as its capital, although the international community considers the capital of Israel to be Tel Aviv. The question of the international recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is delicate, since the city is also claimed as the capital of Palestine, a Muslim state not yet recognized internationally.

Recently President Donald Trump transferred the US embassy in Israel, from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, in a move considered provocative by the international community.
