A travel guide to Palestine and Syria, published in 1906 illustrates that even when the Islamic Ottoman Empire ruled the region, the Muslim population in what they now call the third most holy city was minimal.
There were then about 7,000 Muslims, 13,000 Christians and 40,000 Jews in Jerusalem.
Jews began to return to Israel, drained the swamps and irrigated the deserts.
Arabs began pouring in; for jobs and opportunity.
In 1939 Winston Churchill said: "So far as being persecuted, the Arabs have crowded into the country and multiplied till their population has increased more than even the world Jewery could lift up the Jewish population."
Then, after WWll The U. N. proposed the creation of two states. The Arabs rejected it with a vengeance and declared war.
The Arab "leaders" urged the Arabs in Israel to leave until after the Jews were destroyed.
They couldn't get it done and now the refugees are multiplying like flies and want what they were told they could have.

"A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions." Proverbs 18:6.
Could this proverb describe the U. S. media?

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, Raisin
