    I am a. physically disabled adult and the ability to get from the Jewish Quarter to the Western Wall and vice versa would be invaluable to me. Let someone else figure out the politics.

  2. Aviva says:

    First of all there are plenty of Moslems in Western Jerusalem. More importantly, many elderly and physically limited individuals who find it difficult to impossible to get to the Kotel because of the steps, steep hill, or lacknof parking, will.now be able to visit.
