RE:"I've always wondered why if the ME is so concerned about the Palestinians why not have them chuck in some land for the Palestinians? Syria, Lebanon and Jordan donate a small portion of their land - the other ME countries chime in with financial aide and all together give them a country, a new country is born

have Israel, for the guarantee of peace and recognition to exist, give Golan Heights to the Palestinians - the above mentioned countries add lands to the Heights and build from there, add the donated monies and voila, the new Palestine

make Jerusalem an international city - base the United Nations out of it"

What would the Arab nations do for a poster child then?

You can't really move 5,000,000 people.

And what about the Israelis.......is there any room in your largesse for them?

I've always wondered why if the ME is so concerned about the Palestinians why not have them chuck in some land for the Palestinians? Syria, Lebanon and Jordan donate a small portion of their land - the other ME countries chime in with financial aide and all together give them a country, a new country is born


Huh? The land was the Palestinians in the first place. Why should the other countries come up with new land to make up for the land their adversary took illegally and refuses to give back?

have Israel, for the guarantee of peace and recognition to exist, give Golan Heights to the Palestinians - the above mentioned countries add lands to the Heights and build from there, add the donated monies and voila, the new Palestine

The Golan Heights is Syrian. Again, why should Syria be responsible for giving up land to house the Palestinians when the land and its water that the Palestinians currently live on is illegally held by Israel?

make Jerusalem an international city - base the United Nations out of it

Yeah, right..........while you're at it, lets puts some cows on the moon so it really can be made of cheese.

Bad idea. Two, if not three, major religions claim Jerusalem as their own holy city. There's no way Jerusalem is ever going to be like Switzerland.
