Yom Yerushalayim 2024

[Harel13]

*No Israel-bashing, hating etc, on this thread (also, this is in a discussion forum)*

Today is Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day) in Israel, a day celebrating the liberation of Jerusalem and other areas in the Land of Israel during the Six Day War, 57 years ago to the day (per the Hebrew calendar). This thread is in celebration of those momentous events.

Two of my favorite clips to watch on this day:

The first is a compilation of some of the most famous clips from the last of the battles in Jerusalem and their aftermath (English subtitles):

The second is that of a military ceremony held by the IDF on the Temple Mount after liberating it (no sound):

And some of the Hebrew songs often sung on this day:

Am Yisrael Chai

Rejoicing with you as we continue to declare “Shalom” to the walls of Jerusalem and to the country.


there are many stories of what I would call “divine intervention"

Unseen Army – According to israelmyglory.org, “Israel’s tank forces charged on for four days across the burning sands of Sinai to the Suez Canal, withdrew, and returned, all without need of reinforcements. Foreign military experts, “Were amazed at the miracle of a small army with partly obsolete weapons trouncing a mighty army with modern, sophisticated equipment…. If they had not seen the battlefields with their own eyes, they would not have believed it. It was as if an unseen hand—an unseen army—was helping them.”

Miraculous Surrenders – Even more astonishing were the accounts of Arab soldiers surrendering without a fight. One Israeli infantry recruit encountered an Egyptian truck loaded with soldiers but was met with surrender instead of aggression. The soldier recounted the Egyptian sergeant’s paralyzed state, saying that his arms and body had become frozen. Such accounts demonstrated that the miraculous extended beyond Israel’s military actions.
