Sharon: We will never give up Jerusalem

"Jerusalem will remain the undivided, eternal capital of the Jewish people," said Sharon at a dinner and dedication ceremony for Jerusalem's new Menachem Begin Heritage Center, just one week after Deputy Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, a close political ally of Sharon, said he is willing to cede Israeli control over at least six Arab neighborhoods that lie on the periphery of Jerusalem.

Of course, Palestinians and Muslims the world over believe Israel has no right to be there whatsoever and are very willing to kill and be killed over it. It's a holy land to Christians as well but they are not fighting over it yet. Perhaps that will come. Who knows, the Pope may decide his presence is needed to keep the peace.

And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. Zechariah 12:3
