Created by Vox, a liberal-leaning American news and opinion website, this video (05:00) explains the religious and historical reasons why both Israelis and Palestinians claim Jerusalem as their capital, serving as a major obstacle in the peace process and the cause of much violence and conflict. This relatively balanced resource was produced in light of the President Donald Trump’s controversial move of the US Embassy to Jerusalem in May 2018.
