Jerusalem is one of the world’s oldest cities.
Its origins date back over 5,000 years.
The prophet Ezekiel described Jerusalem as the “center of the earth” and “the center of the Land of Israel” in Ezekiel 38:12.
As far back as the 13th century, Christian Crusaders placed Jerusalem at the center of the earth on their maps because it was the “Holy Land.”
In 1995, Congress passed The Jerusalem Embassy Act, affirming Jerusalem’s status as Israel’s eternal capital. However, this was just a symbolic move.
Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama declined to move the embassy, citing “national security interests.” For years, US policy has been to avoid declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel until an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal could be secured.
This policy ended in 2017, when President Trump formally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
However, the radical socialists in the biased media and the radical Democrats have been spreading hatred for Israel. Recently, we’ve witnessed violent, antisemitic, un-American, and pro-terrorist mobs take over college campuses nationwide, putting Jewish students and innocent bystanders at risk.
Shockingly, many Democrats have remained silent, refusing to condemn these dangerous protests… and some have joined in with them.
So, it’s no surprise that the biased radical socialists at CBS News refuse to acknowledge Israel as the capital of Jerusalem.
CBS News Senior Director of Standards and Practices, Mark Memmott, has reportedly emailed reporters to refrain from referring to Jerusalem as part of Israel or its capital, effectively denying a fundamental historical truth… and American policy… that has long been recognized both by the United States and Israel itself.
The email warned reporters to “be careful with some terms when we talk or write about the news regarding the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas” and not to include controversial terms like “Jerusalem,” instructing them “not to refer to it as being in Israel.”
“Yes, the U.S. embassy is there, and the Trump administration recognized it as being Israel’s capital. But its status is disputed,” Memmott wrote. “The status of Jerusalem goes to the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Israel regards Jerusalem as its ‘eternal and undivided’ capital, while the Palestinians claim East Jerusalem—occupied by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war—as the capital of a future state.”
The backlash was immediate. “Then we can stop referring to CBS employees as journalists,” Washington Examiner senior writer David Harsanyi wrote on X.
This blatant disregard for reality undermines journalistic integrity and caters to an anti-Israel narrative that seeks to rewrite history.
CBS is catering to the radical left’s narrative by refusing to recognize Jerusalem’s significance to Israel and the Jewish people.
Memmott’s stance mimics the talking points of anti-Israel activists who refuse to accept the reality of Israel’s sovereignty over its historic capital.
The Palestinians and their allies, including Iran, dispute not only Jerusalem’s status but Israel’s very right to exist. By refusing to acknowledge Israel, CBS is giving aid and comfort to terrorists and anti-Semitic activists.
The media’s job is to report facts, not hide, twist, or distort them.
In Genesis 12:3, God promises to bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel.
Jerusalem is, and always will be, the capital of Israel—no amount of media distortion can change that fact. Conservatives, Christians, and Jews must stand firm against these attempts to rewrite history and deny Israel’s rightful place in the world.
Jerusalem’s status as the eternal capital of Israel is undeniable, and no media narrative should be allowed to obscure that truth.
“One should pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and may they prosper who love it.” —Psalm 122:6-7 –
