Peace in the Holy Land

An idea for peace in the Middle East, hopefully to the betterment of all. Since both sides wish to make Jerusalem their capital, deny it to both. Let the U.N. take over the management of the city. To insure peace, make the border between the two a few miles wide and devote the space to parks and nature reserves to show both sides the beauty of the land both are willing to kill and die over. Let this space be managed by the U.N. as well. Let the border be decided between the two ignoring the 67' borders, but in fairness, Palestine the State, must be almost as equal in mass as Israel, and if possible, land by the sea. For Arab states bordering land with Palestine, to prove their want for peace let them also give up some land for the creation of a home for their brothers. Israel must be recognized, as well as ALL innocents lost. To appease Palestinians, Israel must stop settlement construction, and deconstruct, or give to Palestine, those settlements that will fall inside their borders. To appease Judea, let the Dome on the Rock be moved to Palestine's new capital with a great ceremony as Palestinians free themselves from Israel, so do they free the Dome from its foundation on an old Jewish temple. In its place let there be a monument to all religions, favoring none, but done to remind the world and its people that humanity belongs to God, God does not belong to any one part of childish humanity or its overly demanding and dogmatic religions. The monument should be a place where all may come in peaceful respect to God and all the peoples of the world.

Let's be civil in our discussions and conflicts and avoid simple name-calling, which shows nothing but a lack of intelligence.
