Russia is more than 1,000 miles away from Israel. Why is Russia so worked up about settlements being built on disputed land in a tiny country that is of no relevance to Russians whatsoever. Could somebody in Russia please fill me in on this? What am I missing?

Ron B. ,   Lod   (07.22.09)
Jeusalem is Jewish as Moscow is Russian and Paris is french and should not be up for negotiation The true demographic threat in Jerusalem is the freezing of Jewish building and the limitations placed on the natural growth of the capital by diplomatic initiatives, unless you expand the border of Jerusalem, including Arab neighborhoods – you wont have the area required to allow Jerusalem to expand. In order for Jerusalem to bloom and expand it should remain Jewish and entirely under Israeli sovereignty. Jerusalem should not be up for negotiation, it has always been the symbol of Jewish unity as explained at : http://xrl.us/bjheo
