Jerusalem isn’t just a city—it’s a symbol of power
Why does Iran focus so heavily on Jerusalem when Islam’s two holiest cities—Mecca and Medina—are in Saudi Arabia?
In this video, we break down the real geopolitical and religious rivalry between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and why Jerusalem became the symbolic battleground. Iran does not control any of Islam’s holy cities, while Saudi Arabia holds Mecca and Medina, giving it religious authority in the Sunni Muslim world. To challenge that dominance, Iran elevates Jerusalem as a global Islamic symbol and rallying point.
This explains:
• Why Iran created “Quds Day”
• Why Jerusalem is central to Iran’s rhetoric
• How this rivalry fuels conflict with Israel
• Why peace efforts repeatedly fail
This is not about ordinary people or civilians — it’s about governments, ideology, and power.
