Reader comment on item: The Muslim Claim to Jerusalem
in response to reader comment: Muslims occupying other religion's holy shrines
Submitted by Mary Connor (Australia), Nov 16, 2007 at 08:47
The Muslims have Mecca and Medina. The Jews have only Jerusalem. Their history there goes back way beyond the birth of Islam. The Arabs have many thousand hectares of land in the Arabian peninsula and beyond in Egypt, Syria, Jordan and Iraq.
Let them live in peace in their little enclave with Jerusalem as its capital!
