This slide show of images of Jerusalem, accompanied by the haunting music of Pitom (pitommusic.com) is based on an article by Rabbi Dr. Donniel Hartman, Co-Director of Shalom Hartman Institute of Jerusalem, about why Jerusalem must be a city for all of its citizens, and not just the haredim - ultra-Orthodox: "If Jerusalem is going to belong to us all, and through that unify us all, it must be a place that Shabbat observers, non-observers, or those who observe Shabbat in non-halakhic ways can all feel at home. It must be a place that all Israelis - be they straight or gay - see as theirs."
