Netanyahu: Obama Will Try to Internationalize Jerusalem Sites

Cannot be done. The sites are under the direction if not the Isreali government, then of the different faith communities.

That's true. And while what excites people is the idea of Israel giving up sovereignty, the Muslim community isn't going to give up control of their sites, nor will the dozen or so Christian denominations in Israel. Israel's only role is security/law enforcement. Look at the PA in Bethlehem or the UN in Lebanon for an idea of how that will turn out.

[SJackson]

But Islam has laid claim to holy sites nonetheless...

They also lay claim to most of Spain, southern France and southern Italy.

But in the end the God of the Jews and Christians will piss on your alleged reality and stacked odds against the Jewish nation. So the popularity contest you like to run for Israel is bullcrap. Your version of reality is fake

[kabar]

LOL. Denial just ain’t a river in Egypt. You are delusional.

[dennisw]

Yeah, right after Makkah & Madinah are made international zones.

Or glass them and that's the end of the eternal Jihad the Muslims proclaim
No Islam = no Jihad

Enjoy the trip you are on because its destination is nothingness

[Ancesthntr]

I see what you're saying, but I do recognize that we are a pragmatic people. . it might not be that bad.

Then again, it might. Willingly stepping into the cattle car because it is the least painful choice at that instant (i.e. pragmatic) is not necessarily pragmatic over time.

Inasmuch as it's a self-contained, self-managed and self-defended religious city respected the world over

Self-contained...as in "Italy wouldn't give them any more land."

Self-managed...as in "this is the last vestige of papal power after nearly 2 millenia."

Self-defended...as in "no one in the world threatens VC except the occasional lone nut hoping to steal or damage something as a statement." Who are the Swiss Guards going to fight off, a bunch of pocketbook-wielding Italian grandmothers pissed off that the Pope's theology means that their whorish grandkids can't get an abortion? Come on, they have fooking SPEARS!

I appreciate you trying, but as I said, this is not a problem that can be solved. One party's compromise position is that it may allow the other to survive for a few years, so long as the world bribes it with sufficient billions of dollars.

Pat went so far as to write a book called "The Death of the West"

Amazon.com: The Death of the West: How Dying Populations and ...

You are like Pat Buchanan. You both see Muslims taking over your ancestral European lands via demographic warfare yet you lack the common sense to back Israel which has the cojones to take on the faster Jihad of war and harassment via missiles rockets and suicide bombers

Israel is your proxy in this war that the Muslims make against Christians and Jews yet you lack the brains to back Israel. You prefer to make phony pronouncements of neutrality

[Zionist Conspirator]

Personally, I regard Netanyahu as a disappointment in his last stint as PM. What Israel really needs is Moshe Feiglin, but that apparently isn’t what most Israelis want.

Okay, I can't argue with anything else in your post. Perhaps a re-think is in order.

Meanwhile, the quoted stuff above was my first real belly-laugh of the day.

Thanks!

>>>Kind-of like a Troika Vatican.<<<

It was very hard to drive a Troika in Roman times. One horse always wanted to lead...and the other two didn't like that.

I don't think the UN, or Obama, knows how to drive a Troika better than anyone else.

The solution to the ME is for Egypt and Jordan to take the Palestinians under their wing - and support them. Interesting fact: the Palestinians have a higher standard of living than either the Jordanians or the Egyptians living close to the Israeli borders. Since neither of them wants that solution....then Israel and the Palestinians will just have to work it out.

I'll bet on Netanyanhu to find a solution - one that I'll be satisfied with, and I suspect the Palestinians won't.

Thanks justiceseeker93. Before that, we need to internationalize Mecca.

"Governed equally"?

I think not.

Islam never considers others as its equal

God & Netanyahu = Israel’s last best hope
