The city of Jerusalem should probably fall into the administrative hands of
an international non-profit consortium or something like that, in the same
manner that we incorporate cities in the U.S. (not that I like it, but
Jerusalem is kind of a special case situation).  This might be one of the
few legitimate uses of the power of the U.N. if it isn't considered too
politically hot to handle the job.


In '49 the UN passed a resolution to put Jerusalem under its control. Four
days later Israel moved the Knesset there.

Just some super-quick thoughts on this ongoing problem... (...) How can the U.S. send crystal clear messages about aggression when our hands are dirty in Afghanistan? (...) Short-term solutions will not work in this conflict, not that I disagree (...) (22 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
