This has been really educational! Thanks Chilla and Dizzie(Primarily). It really is an impossible situation but was not helped by the annexing of Palestinian lands for the Jews to settle I feel. The allies who made that decision were,I think, the victors? of WW2.Britain, America and Russia. And yes, I believe Jerusalem and The Dome of the Rock is at the heart of it all. I don't quite understand why except each religion claims it as a Most Holy Place.
What a muddle! But well debated here . Thanks girls. I must ask my son who is a political scientist(Middle Eastern studies) to explain it all to me in his terms!!
Mayday
