 Arutz Sheva - Israel National News
Partial expulsions of Jews occurred in Ramle, Beersheba and Shiloah, the site of the original City of David and burial place of Rabbi Ovadiah Bertinoro, the late 15th Century Chief Rabbi of Palestine.
But an organized community was repeatedly blocked by the Arabs and the few Jews who lived there were finally driven out during the riots.
During this period, the last of the Jews were expelled from Ramle, Beersheba, Acre, Ein Zeitim, Hebron (except for one family, who was driven out in 1948), Pekiin and Bet She'an, which became a base for Arabs to attack the neighboring Jewish communities.

And there is no mention at all of the inscriptions of Gezer and Shiloah, or the hundreds of discoveries from the Temple Mount and the Upper City of Jerusalem.
Its position seems to be that the importance of Jewish artists stems only from their place in the general art world, or their role in the local Israeli art scene, but never within a narrative connecting, for example, Chagall, Agam and Danziger as Jewish artists whose works reflect the story of Jewish art.
This is not meant to diminish these museums’ value as showcases for outstanding works of the graphic and plastic arts; the point is that nowhere in Israel can one find the pantheon of Jewish artists represented within the larger historical context of Jewish art, to say nothing of the Jewish spiritual experience as a whole.

In March 1951, it was reorganized and made a part of the prime minister's office, reporting directly to the prime minister.

 Shlomo Sharan: Assimilation, Normalcy and Jewish Self-Hatred
In fact, relatively few Jews generate, and are consumers of, the written Hebraic culture of Israel because Israel is a nation of “new olim” (immigrants) socially and linguistically.
Furthermore, many Jews who came to Israel before 1948 brought with them a socialist ideology whose main features are still evident among politically Leftist groups, including their anti-religious attitudes (C’na’ani, 1976; Dotan, 1966; Kantzler, 1979; Lord, 2000; Sharan and Birnbaum, 1999; Schoenfeld, 2004; Shiloah, 1991; Stav, 1997).
These attitudes endure in the Israel society of today and are not likely to vanish in the foreseeable future (Belfer, 2004; Bat Ye`or, 2004; Epstein, 2005; Karsch, 2000).

A group of right-wing Jewish activists reenacted a religious ritual from the First Temple period at the Shiloah Spring in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan Tuesday night, with the goal of removing Prime Minister Ariel Sharon from power and instituting a Jewish monarchy.
During Succot in the time of the Temple, the priests would gather water from the holy Shiloah Spring and would pour it onto the tabernacle in the Temple, accompanied by songs and trumpets.
The religious meaning behind the ritual, Weiss said, was to draw strength and spiritual powers from the water, which would then sustain the priests throughout the year.

 Jerusalem in International Diplomacy: The 2000 Camp David Summit, the Clinton Plan, and their Aftermath, by Dore Gold
Indeed, over a half-century earlier when the Jewish population of Jerusalem first constituted a clear majority in the city after centuries, a British visitor to Jerusalem noted: "Although we are much in the habit of regarding Jerusalem as a Muslim city, the Muslims do not actually constitute more than one-third of the entire population."
The Jewish presence had spread to beyond the overcrowded Jewish Quarter itself: into the Muslim Quarter, and outside of the city walls even before the Muslim population, in Mishkenot Sha'ananim (1855-1860), Me'a Sha'arim (1875), Kiryat Neemana (1875) across from the Damascus Gate, and Kfar Shiloah (Silwan) (1884).
Jerusalem's demographics, and the spread of its Jewish population to all parts of the city, were consistant with the League of Nations' determination to include the Holy City in the Jewish national home.
