Every centimetre of Jerusalem is part of the capital of Israel. This includes the entire Temple Mount and the entire Old City of Jerusalem. There is nothing to negotiate about this fact.

Mr. Freund's article nails it,Abbas has no power& is a terrorist in his own right.I do not believe any politici on would last a minute as PM should they accept the premise that Abbas laid out.Peace is dependent on destroying Hamas in Gaza.I do not believe that Fattah can do it,so either Isreal does it or Some Arab state does.

We have a good example of how Muslims will treat Jewish and Christian sites in Jerusalem and elsewhere. All we have to do is look at the Jordanian acts from 1948-1967, and the "Palestinian" acts at Hebron, Ramallah, and other examples. The only way Jerusalem will be an open city to all religions is if it is controlled by Israel, whose capital city it is. Compare the way Jerusalem is today and the way it was under the Jordanians. It is long past time for Israel to stop even considering concessions. The "Palestinians" have yet to make one.

As much as i hate to admit it . Part of Jerusalem is negotatable . It would not be with the religious Orthadox Jews , But there are very few religious Jews . other wise the dome of the Rock would have been complettely destroyed either accidently in the war or on purpose after the war .
Sad to say the Nation of Israel is also part of the same politicial correct philosophy that has bamboozled the western christian political world for yrs . Leaving that muslim mosgue stand in Jerusalem was the most sacreligious monument to the Jewish and christian faith possible . But in realality there is no Jewish faith , thats why it is still there

Jews have a totally undeserved reputation for being good businessmen. The fact is, we are just merchants: buy low, sell high -- but always sell. It works in the western world but not when the opposition thinks in devious, game terms.
The Arabs have nothing to sell. They can't deliver peace and their savage antisemitism can't even let them sell hostile co-existence so they resort to selling nothing (as in zero which is, in fact, a number) and the Jews, not to be outdone, swallow the bait. Even if it's zero, we have to have it.
So what do we have to do? It's very simple; we acknowledge that there is not negotiating partner, there is nothing to buy or sell and we do as Balam prophesied, we dwell alone. But we are not alone. The world needs us more than we need them. We provide the world's morality, ethics and even its theology. Dwelling alone might make things very crowded.

Israel has more friends throughout the world, than her leaders realise.
The time is long overdue for the West to enforce it's own will. Western countries are continually reminded of 9/11 and terrorist's atrocious and barbaric acts in their own countries, hence their fear to stand up in defence of Israel. Rather than bow to the illicit claims coming from Terrorist organisations.the west must come to the realisation of who the enemy really is.

The Holy City Jerusalem must stay whole and not divided. Talk about a war, it will be a big one, because those Arab's will never leave Israel in peace....
G-d bless Israel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Israel it is time for action against islamists living there .The whole of Israel including gaza and west bank belong to you so go in and throw all islamists out and send them back to saudi arabia.As a christian I know you will be able to take care of our Holy sites .Shalom

The day we surrender Jerusalem is the day we as a Jewish people will cease to exist, any Jewish leadership or people whom advocate this as a cause for peace are outright traitors and enemies of the religion and I for one will fight them as fiercely as I will the nations of islam, I would rather go down defending the city than hand the even a single inch of it.

Any Muslim who rejects "any historical attachment between the Israel of the First and Second Temple era and the site - is making the Koran, as well as other Islamic traditions a blatant lie, as the Koran itself gives us evidence of the destruction of the two Temples that once stood on
the site of Al-Aksa. The Temple Mount: http://www.torahblogg.net/32628573

Quran, Al-Isra; Surah 17:103-104 "So he (Pharaoh) resolved to remove them (Moses and his people) from the face of the earth: but We did drown him and all who were with him. And We said thereafter to the Children of Israel, "Dwell securely in the land (of promise)": but when the second of the warnings came to pass, We gathered you together in a mingled crowd.

Qur'an, Al-Isra; Surah 17:7 "If ye did well, ye did well for yourselves; if ye did evil, (ye did it) against yourselves. So when the second of the warnings came to pass, (We permitted your enemies, Titus and his army) to disfigure your faces, and to enter your Temple as they (Nebuchadnezzar) had entered it before, and to visit with destruction all that fell into their power." Muslims say that the second doom was due to the rejection of the Message of Jesus, and Titus' destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.C. was complete.

BUT WHAT DOES THE TORAH AND THE PROPHETS SAY? Leviticus 26:14-16,31 " But if ye will not hearken unto Me, and will not do all these commandments; and if ye shall reject My statutes, and if your soul abhor Mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all My commandments, but break My covenant; I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you,.. And I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours."

The Second doom was due to the rejection of the Torah and knowledge of God and not "the message of Jesus." 1 Kings 9:6-9, Deut. 29:23-28, II Chr. 7:19-22, Jer. 22:1-9, Ch. 44, Hosea 4:6, 6:6, Amos 2:4-5

Obama Promises Saudi King that Israel will Withdraw from Jerusalem, West Bank: Diplomatic sources said Obama relayed a pledge to Saudi King Abdullah that he would take any measure to ensure an Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and Jerusalem over the next 18 months. They said Obama relayed the pledge to Abdullah during the president’s trip to Riyad in June 2009, about four months after he assumed office, in exchange for Abdullah’s help to arrange for the end of the Taliban war in Afghanistan.

“Abdullah said he was ready to talk to Taliban, but asked for a clear and definitive promise to deliver Israel.”

The sources said Abdullah has demanded U.S. guarantees that Israel would withdraw from the West Bank and most of Jerusalem by 2012. They said the Saudi king also expressed opposition to U.S. arms sales to Israel and Washington’s boycott of the Hamas regime in the Gaza Strip.

Another deep division between Saudi Arabia and the United States is the flow of money from the oil kingdom to Taliban terrorists, despite the king’s statement that both countries are “combating terrorism.” (Sale of F-15s, PA State and Taliban Divide Obama and Saudi King, IsraelNationalNews, 06/30/10).

"Obama warned Israel against any military strike on Iran and stressed that Washington would resolve Iran's nuclear threat through a mixture of sanctions and diplomacy." A nuclear Iran would pose an immediate, existential threat to states both in the Middle East and Europe, but will trigger a huge arms race in the Middle East and Europe, which will fuel $$$ into a hard pressed American economy:

Obama OKs arms sales to Arab League states on eve of Netanyahu visit: The White House agreed to requests worth $500 million by Egypt, Oman and Tunisia for air defense upgrade, aircraft and naval ship support as well as helicopters. The Pentagon announcements of the Arab requests, which require approval by Congress, came hours after the White House said Obama would press for the extension of Israel's freeze on Jewish construction in the West Bank and most of Jerusalem . White House aides said Obama would meet Netanyahu on July 6 amid enhanced Israeli-U.S. cooperation in intelligence, missile defense and security.

The administration has not approved an Israeli request for offensive military platforms since Obama took office in January 2009. Instead, the White House endorsed nearly $13 billion worth of Arab arms requests last year, and nearly $10 billion from Turkey.

The Defense Department agency has reported two military requests by Egypt. In the first, Obama approved Cairo's request for U.S. equipment to help upgrade Egypt's Skyguard air defense system. In another project, the Egyptian Navy would receive support for its fleet of U.S.-origin warships.

"This proposed sale will contribute to the foreign policy and national security of the US by helping to improve the security of a friendly country which has been and continues to be an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East, DSCA said.

US Official: "We believe that there are many cases in which the Iranian threat commits us to strengthen the ability of states in the region to defend themselves" (World Tribune, Monday, July 5, 2010).

Obama rejected Netanyahu request for F-15E in 'tough' session: President Barack Obama has rejected another Israeli request for advanced combat platforms. Netanyahu, failed to win Obama's agreement to approve the export of U.S. offensive systems, including combat jets and helicopters produced by Boeing.

"Netanyahu asked the United States expedite the export of military equipment and allow Boeing to export the stealth F-15 as part of the Foreign Military Sales program," a diplomatic source, briefed on the July 6 meeting at the White House, said. "Obama did not reply."

For the first time, the sources said, Netanyahu urged Obama to release weapons and platforms approved by the previous administration of then-President George W. Bush. This included air transports, attack helicopters, precision-guided munitions and other systems approved by Bush in 2007 and 2008 and since frozen by Obama.

A White House official confirmed that the administration continues to press the Netanyahu government to agree to major and imminent concessions to the PA to ensure the establishment of a Palestinian state in the entire West Bank by 2012 (World Tribune, Monday, July 12, 2010).

I think the real land lord of Jerusalem will have to decide who gets it. He said He put HIS name there. So for Israel to give any part of it up is to be in violation of the covenant. That is a very serious breach.

I don't approve of what Mr.Obama is doing at all My thought is to back Israel 100% bless that nation always.The only way to stop him is hitting our knees and the vote him out.
