Listen, Tom, I know you have it in for Israel. Fine, have it your way. But I'm not going to constantly respond to your straw man posts.
One last statement from me on this subject: why do you never mention Palestinian atrocities against Israeli Jews? Car bombs? Buses plowing into crowds? Molotov cocktails thrown at soldiers by trained militiamen using children as human shields? Make no bones about it- the PA is cynically using Palestinian children as human shields, literally bribing their parents to place them in harm's way.
I do notice, though, that most of your sources- US and UK media- are known for strong anti-Israeli and pro-Palestinian bias. The BBC and ABC News have been particularly blatant in this regard.
Finally, I invite everyone to read the article linked below. It is by a Muslim cleric on the competing Jewish and Muslim claims to both the land of Israel and Jerusalem. It's quite an interesting read.

All things considered, etc.
