un admited israel as a member state.

Over the past decade, the Arab annual population growth has fallen significantly from around 3% to 2.2% by 2013,[5] while the overall Jewish growth rate rose from around 1.4% to 1.7% Why did you make your post?

My question is, who built Jerusalem ? Jews or arabs ? Was King David a jew , arab or muslim ? Jewish temple and alqsa mosque , which of the two was first built in Jerusalem .

In all seriousness, I have read/heard Abbas say Israel has to do a, b, c, etc and Kerry say Israel has to do e, f, g, etc. Can any of you enlighten me to either (i) what Abbas says the Palestinians/Arabs are willing to give up (i.e, compromise); or (ii) what Kerry says Abbas needs to do?

thank you. the arab palestinians still aim to destroy the jewish state.

You got it wrong.The Palestinians in Gaza have overproduced to the point that the land and resources can't sustain them.when overcrowding like that happens Mother Nature takes over and its not pretty.Its called culling the heard.

being wild and a curse to the whole world.

king david was a jewish king who built jerusalem. his son, king solomon, built the first jewish temple. islam came into being about fifteen hundred years after king david lived and died. islam came into being in saudi arabia in the seventh century. the muslim wars and conquest of territories on three continents started as soon as islam came into being. the land of israel was conquered by arab muslims who built the mosque right on top of the remnants of the jewish temples.

Hey downtrodden people under PA control. You leadership is sealing your fate. While they fill your heads with insanity and empty your wallets, you will end up paying the ultimate price. If you want to be a marytr, you will not have to go far. Your leadership will just go to europe and live in luxury.

The only greedy in this conflict is the Palestinians give me all the land give me all jerusalem give all the Palestinian the right of return give them control of the Jordan valley so the Iraqis and iranians can just walk in. Any thing else ? Have you completely lost your mind? Have you no sense of decency? You fell for the same propaganda they have been selling with much success As you are one of the fool one. Wake up what do you think will happened after they get all they want? Do you really think peace will come to this land . Please tell me you are not high or something like that. They tell you if you want to know the feature look at the past I m just wondering what past are you looking at.

I can always depend on you for saying something really stupid; keep-up the good work: it only proves how ignorant you really are! God bless Israel!!!

...Obama/Kerry duo lacks the ability to see through the real intent of the PLO: Israel's demise, in stages if need be, and the "cleansing" of the ancestral homeland of the Jewish people of its Jews, through whatever means necessary, violence, terror and deception included. And the Obama/Kerry duo is clearly being deceived.

The United Nations established in 1947 the principle of two states (only two) a Jewish State and an arab state. OK, what is all that fuss about? Arabs have their own state, call it Jordan or whatever you prefer. ONE STATE. Full stop. Several wars started by the arabs have transformed the sizes of the first division, somebody lost lands, some other gained lands, those are the laws of wars. Israel should discuss with Jordan what is their own, and what should be given back (by mutual consent). With Jordan. JORDAN. Nowhere a third party is mentioned. A Jewish state and an arab state.

The solution to the pal refugee problem is simple: lay their plight on the shoulders of surrounding Arab nations and let them appear as intolerant and unbending in the eyes of the world against their own people. In the face of these "declarations by Abbas Israel can be as firm and resolved as HE is.

Narrator to narratee to you.

Since the signing of oslo in 1993 we have been talking about a state and since Barak offered it for the first time at Camp David amazing both Clinton & Arafat its been generally accepted by both the right and left Jerusalem is up for negotiation. Olmert had a general agreement with Abbas that Israel would agree to a family reunification gesture of around 5000 ( non refugees ) the right to emigrate to Israel based on 1000 a year. Under Bibi & Kerry Abbas has been demanding hundreds of thousands + financial compensation. Arafat gave a press conference in which he grudgingly said he was willing to accept a palestinian & Jewish state. Abbas the moderate refuses to do so and is backed by the Arab League who are supposed to be interested in peace these days since they put forward their own plan. Under the hardliners Bush & Sharon there was more progress than under Kerry and Abbas.
