Jerusalem has always been and should remain the Jewish capital. If Jews could live for hundreds of years in Arab countries (until the majority were thrown out or forced out in the past few decades), then Palestinians in Jerusalem can learn to live together with Jews.

I don't see any plausible reason or rationale for self-determination talks with Palestinian who can't even agree on a government, much like the Iraqis.

Let's pray this Yom Kippur holiday for intelligent leadership in Israel, and Palestinian leaders who will choose peaceful coexistence and compromise, over war and revolution.
