The city was "holy" before the Jews?! Ha ha ha. What a freakin' idiot. Other than the Muslims and Christians who invaded the Jewish holyland, which other faith and its members are claiming Jerusalem "holy" to their faith?... Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed that ... Jerusalem ... will "forever" be part of the Jewish state.
Wait, you mean the city which has been the center of the history, ancestry, and religious faith of the Jewish people for three thousand years will remain under Jewish control? No way. The HORROR! The INJUSTICE! The TRAGEDY! How DARE the Jewish people presume to want to control their own historical, ancestral and religious places!
Not JUST the Jewish people!
Its the only indigenous holy place in the world which was usurped by another religious faith and culture. What gives the usurpers rights to that which they stole?
And by the way, I am not arguing that they shouldn't have access to the Temple Mount. But the Jewish people are the only people who will guarantee access to all. The Arab Muslims have conclusively demonstrated that they don't have the ability to recognize Jewish rights to the Temple Mount.
The city was a holy city before the Hebrews arrived. How can it be "indigenous" to Jews? It wasn't usurped anyway, the people converted to Christianity and it became a Christian city.
The Jebusites were there before the Hebrews/Jews, but it wasn't a holy city to them. It only became holy after David made it his capital, and Solomon built the Temple there.
