HOENLEIN: One of the real things that points out the hypocrisy and the ludicrousness of these charges against Israel is that they found now the oldest Hebrew inscription ever discovered.

BATCHELOR: We think it’s City of David where they found it.

HOENLEIN: In the City of David—in Jerusalem in the City of David area, I think—that goes back to the 10th Century BCE.  I get worked up.  The 10th Century BCE.  The time of King Solomon.  This gives us insight for the first time into Biblical era.  It’s written in Hebrew and it’s one of the forms of Hebrew from Southern Israel—whatever.  But the inscription was deciphered now—it took a long time—and they found out it deals with wine.  Inferior wine that from the time of the Temple that some may have been—that this was served to the troops that were there.  It’s very revelatory.  But it tells you again: from the 10th Century BCE till today this is the one place where you’ve had the same people, living in the same place, the same language, the same religion, same history, same everything and that’s the place they challenge the legitimacy?

BATCHELOR: And UNESCO is challenging…

HOENLEIN: The legitimacy.

BATCHELOR:  …that the Israelis—that the Jews—have been there for 3500 years.  Malcolm Hoenlein, Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.  I’m John Batchelor.  This is the John Batchelor Show.
