Would a tri city work and be supported by those who actually live there?

After a talk yesterday on the Subject of an Old Testament prophet, One of teh speakers answered a question about the city area. They said that personally they were against it as Ramallah and Bethlehem were Palestinian an they wouldn't want to go there. When their child intervened that it would then probably create a war with it ending up entirely one state or another, to which the speaker disagreed; it did stop and make me think.

Are we all more radical as teenagers and is taht why there needs to be better explanation of international law and any agreement between Israel and Palestine ratified by referendums in both states.

I remember when I was taken to see castles as a primary school kid by my parents I wanted to defend the keep from the enemy so to speak, however in modern international law this is restricted to lawful self defence by one state against or for another, ratifed at teh United Nations. It is fast coming to a situation when to go against that means that you face charges at the International Criminal Court (the Hague).

That is why if a first strike against Iran which is receiving help for lawful civilian nuclear power plants is not an option, dialogue is needed. Thats why The USA has to show restraint against Iran as not to dos o could undermine its own world wide nuclear arms reduction initiatives which is preventing total economic collapse in some areas.

It is also preventing an Iranian retalitory strike which could poison teh water supply for all the Middle Eastern states.

These are very tough issues to discuss and is why having a UN presence for its officials within a unified tri city area, building on teh legacy of teh tri state area in New York hit by Al Queada just over ten years ago is idealistic. Howevr its implementation must be designed and decided by those who actually live there with a view to conserving the Holy sites of all three faiths there.
