Daniel Seidemann

 
Things were not nearly as good as they appeared to be in the summer of 2000, but they're not nearly as bad as they appear to be today. There's a viable city here [in Jerusalem]. It's not a utopian city; it's politically achievable, but it's not going to happen tomorrow morning. We are years away from a genuine political process in Jerusalem I believe, but I also believe that we're not decades away.
 
Through his law office and work with the Israeli organization Ir Amim, Daniel Seidemann's efforts are focused on making Jerusalem a livable city. He currently takes on cases defending individuals, families and communities who are negatively impacted by the wall and the expansion of Jewish settlements in and around Jerusalem.
