This belongs in the politics section.

I can tell that you're very, very biased and are easily swayed by a few crocodile tears.
If you study your history you'll realize that a lot of what happened to the Arabs was the result of things they did, like start wars.

I think Jerusalem, in a peace process, should either stay undivided with Israel, or become a UN-sanctioned city.

Sources, please? You're confusing Arabs fleeing from a warzone with Jews kicking Arabs out of their homes because it's now Israeli.

Jews were kicked out of their homes too by the Arabs, but nobody ever talks about that.

They were a minority. It went like this. In WWI Britain promises the Arabs an independent Palestine as long as they revolt against the Ottoman empire, at the same time they promise the minority Jews there their independent state as long as they revolt against the Ottoman empire, both succesfully revolt and take down the Ottoman Empire and now? Britain and France take them over as their own colonies, but Turkey is given Independence, as is the Trans-Caucasian nations, so the Arabs get pissed off heavily by this but nothing changes, then after WWII a big migration of Jews happened and then Israel was declared with the Arabs just getting subjugated by the Israeli's, forced off their land and pushed into refugee camps that they still live in TO THIS DAY.

Oh yah the Arabs sure are the bad guys.

Not available in my area, but I will definitely be looking for it. Especially since it's by Louis Theroux.
I've been a fan of his documentaries ever since I saw his documentary on the Westboro Baptist Church.

If so much percent of a whole civilisation hate one specific other civilisation, then both civilisations must suck.

Well... Jerusalem is pretty much divided and there's a big Muslim quarter that's controlled entirely by Muslim people.
Also after the leak from Al Jazeera (or whatever they're called), We all know that the previous Israeli PM actually offered a large part of Jerusalem (Which is still, the capital city of Israel) to be a part of the (yet to be established) Palestinian state.
So, Yeah whoever wrote that thing can go fuck himself.

Actually, if you knew anything about anything, you'd know that Israel has absolutely NO jurisdiction or control over jerusalem under international law. It is to be completely held by the palestinians. Too bad you don't know anything about anything.

I remember having to write a paper about Jerusalem or maybe it was just about conflict in the Middle East and what should be done about it. I ended up saying that Jerusalem should be divided into numerous places, but from what I have learned, it's already done that and that hasn't solved anything. Speaking of trouble in the Middle East, I'm actually surprised that I have not even heard that name being used in news nowadays.

Jerusalem is only important because it's a major crossroads for the major Abrahamic religions, {Christianity, Islam and Judaism.} and people have attacked that city for nearly 5,000 years, only in the last 60 years or so has it got extremely fierce.

Frankly, Jerusalem is an overrated city in terms of importance in the world, compared to other cities like Tokyo, New York, Beijing, etc. which have a lot more influence in the world, both in geopolitical and economical terms. From a historical and religious viewpoint, then Jerusalem is rather important in that respect, but everything else isn't all what its cracked up to be.


Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.
