	Letter to Ehud Olmert - Mayor of Jerusalem
		I will not be joining you at the Jerusalem Rally on Monday because of my concern that, despite the intentions of the organisers, it will be seen as a political gesture in the midst of an election campaign.
		It was here, almost 4000 years ago, that Abraham and Isaac walked to their great trial of faith; here that 3000 years ago, David established the capital of the Jewish kingdom and Solomon built the Temple as the earthly home of G-d.
		Therefore I pray with you for the peace of "Jerusalem rebuilt as a city united together," the city we hold as G-d's guardian for the sake and benefit of mankind.

		A variety of means would be employed to effect the plan, including barring Arabs from renovating their homes, or adding rooms and annexes, refusing to register the homes and other real estate in the town's property registry on the grounds that the properties are "disputed".

	Longtime Mayor of Jerusalem Dies at 95
		Teddy Kollek, the legendary Jerusalem mayor who presided over the reunification of the city after the 1967 Mideast war and tried to balance the needs of its split Jewish and Arab populations, died Tuesday at the age of 95.
		Kollek needed all his celebrated energy, will and mastery of public relations in the nearly three decades that he was mayor, walking a tightrope between Israeli and Palestinian national aspirations and between rival religious and ethnic groups within the two communities.
		He preached fairness to the city's Arabs but said Jerusalem should remain under Israel's sovereignty — despite the Palestinians' demand that the Arab part of the city become the capital of their would-be state.

	A Chareidi mayor for Jerusalem - Jewish Media Resources
		Similarly, Jerusalem’s chareidi population have no great expectations that there will be any major changes in their favor during Lopolianski’s term in office, no matter how long or short that may be.
		Though Lopolianski’s term in mayor will result in few tangible gains for the chareidi population, except perhaps in the most egregious cases of discrimination against chareidi institutions, that hardly means that his succession to the mayoralty is a matter of no significance.
		The current mayor, Yitzchok Pindrus, for instance, is justly proud of the fact that the city has the lowest rate of per capita water consumption in the country, which reflects a concerted conservation campaign on the part of the city.
