Ayalon stated, “We must explain to people that Hevron is not Jerusalem and Hevron is not Tel Aviv.”
Funny, David Ben-Gurion thought the exact opposite.
However, don't forget: the beginnings of Israel's greatest king were in Hebron, the city to which came the first Hebrew about eight hundred years before King David, and we will make a great and awful mistake if we fail to settle Hebron, neighbor and predecessor of Jerusalem, with a large Jewish settlement, constantly growing and expanding, very soon. This will also be a blessing to the Arab neighbors. Hebron is worthy to be Jerusalem's sister.
