Hmm, I wonder why 1.5 million Muslims believe that Jerusalem hold religious significance. They should talk to you and you should set them straight. Ever wonder why MORE THAN A BILLION Christians and Jews hold Jerusalem in EVEN GREATER RELIGIOUS SIGNIFICANCE? The only significance that Jerusalem offers to Muslims is that you built a Mosque atop one of the holiest sites in Judaism as a symbol that Islam was superseding Judaism as the "faith". Islam came hundreds of years AFTER Christianity. You came, you saw, you conquered, and you (belatedly) got your @sses kicked. Thus, if anything, Jerusalem should be declared an "international city", open to, AND PROTECTED BY, all faiths. Or a Londoner calls him/herself a Londoner not English or European. I'll be damned. LOL Well.. if that's all that matters, Gaza at 141 square miles is comparable, if not bigger, than most global metropolitan areas, so there's really no need for them to have an actual state. Afterall, London doesn't have a constitution, nor does New York. So why should the Palestinians bother with one? THE REALITY IS THAT JORDAN IS THE CLOSEST THING TO A PALESTINIAN STATE. And the majority of Arabs living on the West Bank CHOSE to become Jordanian subjects until Yasir Arafat came along and screwed them for his own corrupt benefit. Hawk
