The Safa news agency has a news flash:

"The Muslim Quarter, the Christian Quarter, the Jewish Quarter, and the Armenian Quarter” are all Hebrew names concocted by the Israeli occupation in the Old City of occupied Jerusalem, claiming that there is a “Jewish heritage” in that holy spot, despite the fact that all its buildings and landmarks testify to its Arabism and Islamism.

Wow! Before 1967 there was no separate quarters in Jerusalem! This would be big news to Edward Robinson, who wrote in1841:

The inhabitants of Jerusalem dwell in separate quarters according to their religion,-Christian, Jewish, and Muhammedan. The Christian quarter extends along the upper or western part of the city, between the Latin convent at the N. W. corner, and the great Armenian convent in the S. W. including also the church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Jewish quarter occupies the northeastern part of Zion, and extends upwards so as to include the greater portion of the hill lying within the walls. The Muhammedans are in the middle and lower parts of the city.

And the all the landmarks of Jerusalem being Muslim and Arab would certainly surprise not only the Jews who lived there 2000 years ago, but also the Byzantine creator of the 6th century Madaba mosaic map which included depictions of various gates of the city as well as the Tower of David and Christian landmarks. 
I found mention of the Jewish quarter in an article from the Times of London, October 26, 1818, that described how badly the Jews of Jerusalem were treated - demolishing the other popular Palestinian lie of how Jews were treated so well in Palestine before Zionism:



The Perthshire Advertiser, 12 Feb 1835, goes into more detail as to how miserably the Jews of Jerusalem were treated.



But even with all these deprivations, everyone knew that Jerusalem is still a Jewish city.  The Kent and Essex Mercury (London), August 09, 1825, refers to Jerusalem as the Jews' capital.
