RISHON LEZION, Israel -- Over the past several days of the Succot holiday, Palestinian and Israeli Arabs have been rioting in the Old City of Jerusalem because they heard that some Jews wanted to pray on the Temple Mount.
Maybe I am missing a detail, but why cannot both Jews and Muslims pray on the Temple Mount? Why are Jews banned from doing so?
On a related subject, why do most two-state solutions call for the expulsion of all or most Jewish settlers from the West Bank? Why would Jews be banned from there? If Israel wanted to expel all Arabs from Israel, there would be numerous international condemnations.
What happened to freedom of religion? Why cannot both Jews and Muslims pray on the Temple Mount? Why cannot all residents of a future State of Palestine practice whatever religion they wish? As I have written, Jews should be allowed to stay in the West Bank -- but they and their settlements would, as is fair, fall under the jurisdiction of the State of Palestine.

Is it really that they would be banned from there? Or is it just that they would have to give back all the land they STOLE. koyaanisqatsi(Quote)

I would say the same about thieves of any stripe. However, lets stick to Israeli territory thieves for the moment, since that’s pertinent to the thread.
It seems quite obvious that you’re not going to be the one to teach me history — or you would have made a start by now. And the same goes for my understanding of the Middle East and politics in general.
Anyone can write what you did. Yours was a pointless, useless post.
Israel must remain within its original territorial bounds, or risk losing credibility with respect to its right to exist. koyaanisqatsi(Quote)
