Hebron is one of the oldest, continuously inhabited cities in the world, yet it dominates the news cycle even today.

Hebron is located in the ancient Jewish heartland of Judea and Samaria, and its chief attraction is the ancient Tomb of the Matriarchs and Patriarch. At the same time, it is ground zero for the Arab-Israeli conflict and has top leaders from around the world talking about its past, present and future.

While Jews have been living in this city for 3,500 years, UNESCO, the UN’s world heritage organization denies the Jewish and Israeli connection.

Hear what US Vice President Mike Pence, former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have to say about Hebron and the biblical founding Fathers and Mothers.
