Wintermute, that solution was discussed in The Sum of All Fears. In the book, everything works out perfectly. Unfortunately, we do not live in a novel. Israel and the Palestinians would never agree to such a loss of sovereignty. Israel under Olmert might think about it, but Olmert is a lame duck supported by a tiny minority of his own people. Even the “moderate” Mahmoud Abbas says that Jerusalem will be the capital of the independent Palestinian state (inauguration speech). No one is going to consider having Jerusalem be ruled by anyone other than their country. I don’t think we will see the end of the conflict until one or the other is destroyed.

Why nobody states the obvious about what to do with Jerusalem ? At least it’s obvious to me that It should be separated from both Israel and Palestine, and granted a ‘holy city’, ’state-city’ vatican-like status, run by a college of religious scholars representative of the various religions there. Then palestine and Israel should be equally divided, and granted a similarly equal access to the mediterraean sea. But if they’re not both still fed up with blood baths and rampant colonization, then let them enjoying kill themselves. At least as a french I’m not accomplice for either side.
