-The solution to the Jerusalem problem should be based on President Clinton's parameters (2000) and on the details offered by the Geneva Initiative (2003) and its annex published last year. - Meaning: the Jewish neighborhoods will be part of Israel, the Arab Neighborhoods will be part of Palestine, and so will be the various quarters of the Old City, except for the Jewish Quarter and the Western Wall, which will be part of Israel. - A multinational group in the Old City will handle disputes and security tensions between the two parties, while a council which will be comprised of representatives of the Jewish, Muslim and Christian religions, will act as a counseling body to the parties and will promote inter-religious dialogue and understanding in the city. - Jerusalem is holy to the religious faithful but is not owned by them. It has cultural and symbolic importance to many non religious people, and therefore the idea of putting Jerusalem's sovereignty under God, is irrelevant.
