I keep urging an open discussion in the U.S. of rightwing Jewish ideas about an undivided Jerusalem because they are so politically important; they made Doug Feith. Here is one such expression, from Richard L. Cravatts, a Zionist academic writing on George Mason University’s site, and addressing Israel’s enemies:
Though Jerusalem is mentioned not once in the
Koran and over 669 times in the Jewish Bible, you claim that Jerusalem
is now the “third holiest site to Muslims,” that, as Yasser Arafat
announced at Camp David in 2000, the Temple Mount was never a Jewish
site, that Jews now “occupy” Muslim lands, and that the archeological
and historical evidence that confirms an uninterrupted 3000-year
presence by Jews in the Holy Land is merely a “construct”…
I wonder how many Americans really want the bible to guide foreign policy…. Does John McCain? Eric Cantor?
