Synopsis

The Hebrew-origin names Judea-Samaria have been Israel s hill country s names for millennia. The UN used them in 1947. They re not the media s Biblical name for the West Bank, which Jordan coined in 1951. The media s traditionally Arab East Jerusalem never existed. Jerusalem has been a unified city except for 19 of the past 3,000 years, capital of 3 natives states, all Jewish, and with a renewed Jewish majority since the 1800 s. Jordan s 1948-67 seizure of the Old City and City of David, with their Jewish and Christian historic and holy places, and nearby neighborhoods didn t create a new city. Jews are not settlers in a land in which Jews have lived for millennia, while Arabs there live in neighborhoods, towns and villages. The 1949 Israel-Jordan armistice agreement s military ceasefire line, succeeded by the far more secure for Israel post-1967 war ceasefire line, was not Israel s permanent 1967 border in international law. This is the tip of the iceberg. Abbas isn t moderate.
