Walk about Zion and go around her;\u00a0count her <\/a><\/sup>towers;<\/em> (Psalm 48:12)<\/p>\n

For 21\u00a0years now, Women in Green have\u00a0upheld the tradition of the Walk Around the Walls of the Old City on the evening of Tisha b\u2019Av. \u00a0Hundreds of participants have\u00a0come annually from throughout the world and the Land, together with leading public figures and rabbis.<\/p>\n

This year of 2015 CE, \u00a05775, the walk, as usual, began in Independence Park in the heart of Jerusalem, so that thousands of participants were able to join from all areas of the Land, for a public reading of the Scroll of Lamentations. \u00a0Immediately afterward, the walk itself began, and proceeded via the New Gate, Damascus Gate, Herod\u2019s Gate and the Lion\u2019s Gate, where the participants gathered to hear speeches by the public figures who accompanied the walk. \u00a0MK Rabbi Eli ben Dahan, MK Bezalel Smotrich, Prof. Arye Eldad, Rabbi Yosef Mendelevitch and Arye Klein participated.<\/p>\n

In past years, certain elements within the Jerusalem Police tried to divert the route of the walk from certain locations,\u00a0and they have even tried to have the walk cancelled. \u00a0Actually, all of the previous walks ended without any confrontations at all. \u00a0This year the police refrained from any such attempts. \u00a0Women in Green are pleased with this and see it as a testimony to the power of this great tradition to bring about changes even among\u00a0the top ranks of\u00a0the police.<\/p>\n

Especially during this period, when radical Muslim factors have been inflaming passions and have been fighting against a Jewish presence in eastern Jerusalem, carrying out attacks and attempting to carry out attacks against the capital, especially now, a massive Jewish presence in the walk is important, which expresses the longing for full Israeli sovereignty in all parts of Jerusalem, as well as in all parts of the Land of Israel. \u00a0The walk, which was initiated 21 years ago with a few hundred participants, has gained momentum and strength over the years. \u00a0Thousands of participants now gather from every part of the Land, and even from abroad, as well as many public figures, and it has become a tradition that expresses national pride and aspiration for Israeli sovereignty and the rebuilding of the Holy Temple.<\/strong><\/p>\n
