OK WHO DOESNT THINK THIS BELONGS TO THE JEWS I MEAN THEY CLEARLY OWN IT

Since 1272 BCE, the Jews had control over the land. They have had control over the land for over 1000 years and the Arabs have only had control for 22 years. Jerusalem has been the Jewish capitol for over 3300 years. Jerusalem has never been the capitol of any Arab or Muslim religion. Also, Jerusalem is mentioned over 700 times in the bible and never in the Koran. King David founded Jerusalem and and he was a Jew. Mohammad never came to Jerusalem and he was a Muslim. The Jews pray facing toward Jerusalem and the Muslums pray with their backs to Jerusalem. The Arabs were never driven out of therir home. The Jews were forced out durring WWII and they think that they should get the land because the Jews left. But then again, the jews were forced out by the Muslums. Even if Isreal belonged to the Arabs, the Jews won 5 wars against them anyway so the land should be theirs anyway. The UN also gave the land to the Jews, and so did God. Also ALL ARCHEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE shows that Israel has been owned by the Jews. And if the Muslums owned the land, it would of said in the Koran. But it doesnt.

Yeah I agree with that the Jews lived there before. They were only kicked out because they were forced out.

Okay so lets say that the Jews were to allow Part of the land to the Arabs. Then the Arabs would not protect the religious site of the Israels.

So I found a site and it was talking about how in 2000 the Prime Minister of Israel offered 90% of the west bank territory to the Arabs. He even spoke of dividing Jerusalem and allowing the Palestinians the East of Jerusalem. Well Yasser Araft who was the Leader of the Palestinians, stormed out of that meeting. When he was offered part of the city, he left.

I agree. The Arabs think they should get the land because the Jews left. Well guess what? The Jews didn't choose to leave, the Arabs forced them too! Not only that they KILLED them!

Okay take religion out of the manner. The Israelis won 5 wars against them. That would mean they would of captured the land, and no religion would of decided that.

Okay, lets just say that the Palestinians DID own the land. Even if they did, the Israels won 5 wars against them! They defended the country, but if the Palestinians were the owners, they lost a war 5 times so the Jews would of took the land anyway.

If the Palestinians are so set on Jerusalem becoming their holy city, then explain why the Jews always pray facing toward the city, but Muslims always pray with their back toward the city!

The Palestinians have been on the land, but they didn't own it! The Israels were given the land, therefor everything on it belongs to them!

I agree. The Israels had control over the land since 1272 BCE and they have been in control over 1000 years! The Arabs have only had control over it for 22 years.

I think the Jews deserve to own Israel and Jerusalem because they were given the land by God and also the UN. They have owned it longer than the Palestinians and it has always been the holy city to the Jews, never to the Arabs.
