22. My argument is not based on the UN Partition Plan.
Edited on Tue Jun-19-07 12:39 PM by Shaktimaan
That was never enacted anyway.

Israel is a recognized nation. No one can argue against their jurisdiction over west Jerusalem at this point.

The idea that the western wall (for example) automatically belongs to a state that does not exist and can hold no legal claim to it, is absurd. If anything it is disputed territory. (As the treaties signed by the PA and Israel contend.) What legal reason exists to support their claim?
