Jerusalem: Why the World Can't Stop Fighting Over This City

Описание: There is a single rock on Earth that has seen more spilled blood than any empire.

Jews believe it is the foundation stone of the world. Christians believe the
crucifixion and resurrection happened just steps away. Muslims believe the Prophet
ascended to heaven from this very spot.

Conquered 44 times. Besieged 23 times. Destroyed and rebuilt twice from nothing.

In this documentary, we trace 5,000 years of Jerusalem's history — from the first
Canaanite settlements on a dry limestone ridge to the modern, divided metropolis.
From the kingdoms of David and Solomon, through the Roman conquest, the birth of
Christianity, the rise of Islam, the Crusades, Saladin's mercy, four centuries of
Ottoman rule, the British Mandate, the wars of 1948 and 1967 — and into the
unresolved present.

A city whose very name means "peace." A city that has never known it.

This is the complete story of Jerusalem. And why its story is the story of
humanity itself.
