Re: Is the Israeli Leadership Straying from the Peace Path?

Ok people ....

Here is some good information regarding the true ownership of Jerusalem:

Who Owns Jerusalem?:
The Israelis claim ownership of the city as their historical capital. In other words, they claim right of
prior ownership. The Israelis have a legal claim to the city as the spoils of war. The Israelis captured the
city in 1967 when they defeated the invading Arab armies, including Jordan. Israel also captured what was historically Judea and Samaria. Today, it's called the West Bank.


The Jordanian citizens caught on the wrong side of the border at the end of the war were abandoned
by their government. They were shoved into refugee camps and presented to the world as the Palestinian people. From one of these refugee camps in 1968 emerged Yasser Arafat and, overnight, Jordanian refugees were
transformed into the 'Palestinian people'.

The rest of the story can be found here:


This information CLEARLY debunks to the pro-Palestinan lobby on this forum.
