Jerusalem 'plans to build synagogue in settlement'
Jerusalem authorities plan to give the green light to build a new synagogue and school in east Jerusalem on land seized from Palestinians, Israeli army radio reported on Tuesday.
The land was seized from its Palestinian owners shortly before planning for the buildings started in the 1990s, the radio said.
The construction project in the Gilo neighbourhood, a Jewish settlement, still needs final approval from the city's planning commission, whose head Kobi Khalon said this would be a formality.
But Khalon, who is also deputy mayor, added: "We must act with prudence and responsibility as Jerusalem is an explosive city."
Meet Kobi:
And instead of "Israel" or "local local municipal authority", the use of "Jerusalem" in the headline is like using the term "Jew", no?

This will not actually have effect, I think so.
