Or should I say, balestinian. Which is a hint at what it maight be, mitzpe prat (as in nofei prat). As a few other places on these maps, this is a figment of their imagination. <br /><br />any other info on their maps should therefore be taken with a grain of saltHolyCityPrayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12427375796402133238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-20080116491004204332010-03-21T05:42:51.535+02:002010-03-21T05:42:51.535+02:00HCP, I have no idea.

That's very old, though the walls aren't exactly where they were in Biblical times.<br /><br />There are many newer neighborhoods built outside the walls, the first was built about 150 years ago.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-57448904415094154712010-03-18T20:06:19.957+02:002010-03-18T20:06:19.957+02:00Batya: For the life of me I couldn't figure ou...Batya: For the life of me I couldn't figure out why people (medi etc.) referred to the Old City of Jerusalem. What, then, was the new city?<br /><br />I watched a documentary on PBS and they said the "new city" was the result of Jewish expansion of the Old City.<br /><br />Are these expanded cities or neighborhoods in Jerusalem what the media means when discussing East Jerusalem?<br /><br />It's crazy. Try as I might to stay informed newspeak/terms get introduced again and again.<br /><br />Also, I think the nature of the neighborhoods could be clarified in the English translations of the names of the neighborhoods were given.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-4380410785673494512010-03-17T19:20:10.755+02:002010-03-17T19:20:10.755+02:00Yoni, thanks
