      Dave,
      Not sure I like this line:

      22,305 have been killed in battle since the establishment of the first Jewish neighborhoods outside Jerusalem’s Old City wall in 1860

      I would say that there have always been some Jewish neighborhoods, the numbers just started increasing in the 1860′s.
