Jerusalem

Israeli police and Palestinian stone throwers in Jerusalem were out enjoying their favorite past time today.

There will never be peace between them. Why?

Because for religious and secular Jews, giving up the Temple Mount is unthinkable.

For Palestinians, having their future capital in East Jerusalem is a fundamental element of any future state. Add to that the deep religious, political and national significance of the Haram al-Sharif to Palestinians and to Muslims around the world, and you get a recipe for eternal war. Life on earth will end before this mess is sorted out.
