The Serbian-Jerusalem discourse is a product of 1980s Serb nationalism, not ancient tradition

Evidence

Although mentioning the word “Jerusalem” (let alone its parallels and metaphors) implies a long history, I will argue that the phrase “Serbian Jerusalem” and the related discourses comparing Serbs and Jews are recent phenomena. Such discourses have been introduced by the Serbian nationalist movement since it began developing in the 1980s. — Nadim N. Rouhana and Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, When Politics Are Sacralized, 1498
