Which is where it becomes political... Do you mean officially
according to Israel? Or official according to international
resolutions such as
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_General_Assembly_Resolut
ion_194
(see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem#Political_status )

(Note: I'm not taking sides in all this, but didn't realise there
was such a political aspect to Jerusalem until doing a bit of
research and thought the above made interesting reading for those
not aware of the history involved. Disclaimer: I'm not saying
Wikipedia is a reliable source).
