The Battle for Jerusalem
Ibrahim, a 70-year-old Palestinian farmer, lives in Har Homa in south west Jerusalem.
He has had land confiscated by the Israeli government and is now living next to a building project providing homes for Jews - a situation which he opposes with vehemence. "Why do we become suicide bombers?" he asks. "Because we have no hope, we have no future."
Duli is a devout Jew who has settled with his family in a Palestinian area. His home has to be protected by guards armed with machine guns; yet Duli remains adamant that Jerusalem belongs to the Jewish community, claiming "Jerusalem is our city, this is our country".
Tonight's documentary highlights the serious problems faced by the citizens of Jerusalem, where the battle for land remains at the heart of the Middle Eastern crisis - a conflict described by one Israeli human-rights worker as a "time bomb" ready to explode.
