Egypt Campaign. Take Jerusalem?

Ok so I am rolling through my Egypt campaign. I just took that city that has Jerusalem just to the east and one of the campaign objective cities just to the north. Back towards the Nile I am fighting a rather annoying war with the Bedouins/Mameluke resistance in the south but all is secure.

So my question is should I take it? It's pretty well defended, would my casualties be worth it? If I leave it alone will its garrison leave and attack my rear? Should I take it just because it's freaking JERUSALEM?

I'm playing on (M/M) I got a full stack with Napoleon (for main attack) and a 3/4 stack trailing in the city behind (for garrison/reinforcements).

I haven't had any of those "campaign deadline" warnings yet, so I think I have a decent amount of time left.

Sure it rich and easily held.The Jews loved Napoleon,he respected them and the Muslims in Egypt being loved by people of all religions.Pope Pius VII called him the devil for it.
