The Burdensome Stone: The Entire World Is Pressuring Israel To Give Up East Jerusalem But Netanyahu Says That Israel Will Never Surrender It

We live at a time when Jerusalem has truly become the "burdensome stone" of the last days prophesied in the Scriptures. The Palestinians consider East Jerusalem to be their capital and they appear to be unwilling to accept a Palestinian state that does not include it. The European Union has made it very clear that their position is that East Jerusalem is going to be the capital of a future Palestinian state. Even the United States has made it the official policy of the U.S. government that East Jerusalem is part of "the West Bank" and the Obama administration has been pressuring Israel very hard to stop all construction in East Jerusalem. But now Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that Israel will never give up control over any part of Jerusalem.
