In recent months, there have been near-daily reports of political violence in Jerusalem, the world’s most hotly contested city. It is the ‘volcanic core’ of the Israeli-Palestinian and Israeli-Arab conflicts.

What are the circumstances that have made Jerusalem so extremely volatile at this particular moment?
