There is no "west" Jerusalem or "east" Jerusalem. It is one city. It's likely to remain Israel's. I can't see the Jewish people giving up the Old City and the Temple Mount. Israel has a proven track record of ensuring everyone has access to the Holy places. Jordan has a proven track record of preventing the Jewish people from access. It's a no-brainer.
I have no fucking idea.
You cannot hold onto land seized in a war. If you do, you are no different than Nazi Germany.
Yeah, troll, every fucking country! Show me one country thst recognizes Israel's right to that land. Just one!
Troll boy speaks...

You can certainly regain territory that was seized from you in a war. Jordan has no claim to that territory. Jordan seized it illegally. In a war of aggression. You damn your argument with your own words.
Of course not. There has been an on-going war of annihilation against Israel and the Jewish people since, well, forever, but certainly since 1948. October 7 certainly made it clear that nothing has changed.

I've had the great pleasure of making acquaintances and friendships with Arabs in the Old City. Lovely people.
Has Hamas, or any of the other groups claiming to lead the Palestinians, EVER accepted a two-state solution? Be honest.

DAYAN IN 1976: ISRAEL TOOK GOLAN OUT OF GREED
Thirty years after Israel conquered the Golan Heights from Syria, in what Israelis have said was an entirely defensive operation, the defense minister at the time, Moshe Dayan, has been quoted as s…
He said: “Eighty percent of the incidents worked like this: we would send tractors to plow in an area of little use, in a demilitarized zone, knowing ahead of time that the Syrians would shoot. If they didn’t start shooting, we would tell the tractors to advance until the Syrians would get aggravated and start shooting. We used artillery and later the air force became involved.”
Dayan said this was the policy for years and that former northern military commanders, later including Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, consistently used such tactics.
He said that after the 1948 war of independence, Israel was unhappy with the cease-fire lines and wanted to change them “through military actions that were not quite at the level of war. The idea was to seize an area and hold on to it until the enemy despairs and gives it to us.”
