The Jerusalem Development Authority over recent years, 15,000 kevarim on Har HaZeisim have been refurbished and cleaned along with installing security cameras and establishing a security network, reports Rabbi Chaim Miller, who heads the Movement for Yerushalayim and its Residents.
Miller explains that if Israel Police does not invest and do its part, all of the money that was spent will be for naught.
Interior Ministry officials sent a letter explaining the situation on Har HaZeisim is viewed as a priority by police, and the latter has established a substation in that area to maintain a presence. The wordy letter detailed the concern of police and other state authorities.
Miller is not satisfied and is pushing for completion of the installation of addition security cameras as well as the establishment of a situation room at the location that will operate around the clock.

Hope that the Har Hazeisim meetings & publicity will make changes quickly
Why, isn’t that Palestine? Un: occupied territories. Satmar, Should be handed back asap. Nk: there is no israel. Israeli gov’t: don’t mind discussing and negotiating at any time. Chilonim: who cares! We don’t believe in this Torah, not in God. If the Palestinians want it Let’em have it! Or hagoo if the orthodox consider this holy to their religion, we don’t want it. So just give it back.
Soo why call it israel? Or why put money into Palestine!
Just kidding.
