Beyond fostering unity, Mayor Moshe Lion has transformed Jerusalem into a bustling construction zone – however, one that is meticulously organized.
Two deputy mayors pushed to postpone Jerusalem municipal elections. One did so because he was fighting against Hamas in Gaza. The other to stop a wartime haredi advantage.
The elections were supposed to have taken place on October 31 but were pushed off following the outbreak of the Swords of Iron War on October 7.
There are growing signs that Jerusalemites are no longer ready to accept the construction of 30-story and even 46-story towers throughout the city.
