Some History of Jerusalem (Israel)
For all we know, Jerusalem (in Israel) is the most fought over land on Earth. From what records we do have, we know that it has been:
- besieged 23 times
- attacked 52 times, and
- captured or recaptured 44 times.
It sits at the crossroads of three continents and is considered holy by all three Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Islam, and Christianity).
The first evidence of human settlements in the area called Jerusalem today dates to 4000 BC. We really don't know anything about this group of people.
The first written records of Jerusalem date to 2000 BC during the time of the Egyptian Middle Kingdom.
2000–1550 BC: Canaanite Period
Although we don't know much about them, these were the first know peoples of Jerusalem that we have record of. This period is called the 𝘾𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙙. Jerusalem was likely a Canaanite city-state, although the historical and archaeological records from this period are sparse.
Over time, the Canaanites were influenced by and absorbed into various conquering empires, such as the Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans.
1550–1200 BC: Egyptian Influence
During this time it is likely that control of the area would have been under the Egyptian Middle Kingdom because the Egyptians were in control of most of the Levant at that time.
This historic period also dates to and contains the Biblical Exodus - when Moses led they Israelites into the desert out from under Egyptian control.
1200–1000 BC: Israelite/Jebusite control
Around 1200 BC was a major regional event called the Bronze Age collapse. This period was characterized by the decline of many of the major Bronze Age powers, including the Hittites, Egyptians, and Mycenaean Greeks, among others.
The city was most likely under the control of Jebusites, a Canaanite tribe, until the conquest by King David around 1000 BCE, according to the biblical account.
This is the beginning of the Israelite period.
1000–586 BC: Israelite and Judah Kingdoms
No one knows from where exactly the Israelites came from, but there were likely a subset of the Canaanites, as most people in the region are.
Around 850 BC, written records return and make it clear that the area was now under control of a group of people called the Israelites.
King David is thought to have ruled in the 10th century BC, with traditional biblical chronology placing his reign around 1010–970 BC. Under his rule, Israel and Judah were united, and the boundaries of his kingdom extended from the Negev in the south to the region of the Euphrates River in the north.
King David is a central figure in all three Abrahamic religions - Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. David's story is primarily told in the Hebrew Bible's books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles, and he is also referenced in the New Testament and the Quran.
After King David, Jerusalem became the capital of the united Kingdom of Israel under Solomon, and after the split, of the Kingdom of Judah until its destruction by the Babylonians.
In 586, the city was destroyed by King Nebakenesur of Babylon.
586–539 BC: Babylonian rule
Following the siege of Jerusalem, the city fell under the control of the Babylonian Empire.
539–332 BC: Persian Period
After Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon, Jerusalem came under the control of the Achaemenid Persian Empire.
332–141 BC: Hellenistic Period
Conquered by Alexander the Great in 332 BC, Jerusalem would later be ruled by the Ptolemies and Seleucids.
141–37 BC: Hasmonean Dynasty
The Hasmoneans, Jewish priestly rulers who led the Maccabean Revolt, established independence and expanded the city.
37 BC to 70 CE: Roman Rule and the Herodian Dynasty
Herod the Great, a client king under Roman auspices, ruled and expanded the Second Temple, making it one of the most magnificent religious structures of its time.
70–324 CE: Roman Rule (Including the Byzantine Period Post-284)
After the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE, the Romans maintained control, later transitioning into the Byzantine period as the Roman Empire became Christianized.
324–638 CE: Byzantine Period
With the division of the Roman Empire, Jerusalem became a part of the Eastern Roman, or Byzantine, Empire.
638–1099 CE: Islamic and Arab Rule
Caliph Omar captured Jerusalem in 638 CE. It was controlled by various Islamic dynasties, including the Umayyads, Abbasids, and Fatimids.
1099–1187 CE: Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem
Jerusalem was captured by the Crusaders and became the capital of the Christian Kingdom of Jerusalem.
1187–1260 CE: Ayyubid Dynasty
Saladin, the founder of the Ayyubid dynasty, recaptured Jerusalem following the Battle of Hattin.
1260–1517 CE: Mamluk Sultanate
The Mamluks, a military class who overthrew the Ayyubids, controlled Jerusalem until the Ottoman conquest.
1517–1917 CE: Ottoman Empire
The Ottoman Turks captured Jerusalem and it remained part of the Ottoman Empire until the end of World War I.
1917–1948: British Mandate
Following World War I and the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the British took control of Jerusalem under the terms of the League of Nations Mandate.
1948–1967:
After the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, the city was divided: West Jerusalem was controlled by Israel, and East Jerusalem, including the Old City, by Jordan.
1967–present: Israeli Control
Following the Six-Day War in 1967, Israel took control of East Jerusalem and later annexed it, a move not recognized by most of the international community. The status of Jerusalem remains one of the core issues in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Homosëxual, Jëwish Supremacist says the secret part outloud: Israel has nukes and they will use them.
Israel has always denied having nuclear weapons, but this is not the first time some fanatic Jëw made this threat; Ben Shapiro did recently as well.
The Mossad killed JFK because he didn't want Israel to this kind of power; he knew the Zionists were a threat to humanity.
