Prince William, Jerusalem is not ‘occupied Palestinian territory’

It is tough to trust that nonetheless Israel is celebrating 70 years of independence, Prince William will be a initial member of a constantly travelling British stately family to make an central revisit to a Jewish State. Even Pope Paul VI visited behind in 1964, nonetheless he began on a Arab side, entering the Jewish state during Megiddo where Israeli dignitaries welcomed him – all but Sephardi Chief Rabbi Nissim who refused to wait on a Pope after a pontiff refused to come to Jerusalem to hail Israel’s Chief Rabbis. The Pope visited Christian holy sites in Israel, though a Vatican did not commend Israel until 1993, after that 3 some-more popes visited Israel.

The UK recognized the Jewish state in 1948, but before to that, it blocked Jewish immigration that could have saved Holocaust victims and afterwards sealed a doors to survivors. In 1948, when a state was determined and pounded from all sides, it went further. British General Glubb Pasha (later knighted by a Queen) led a Jordanian Arab Legion to ban all a Jews from Hevron, East Jerusalem and a ‘West Bank.’ Not usually did they do ethnic cleansing, they broken dozens of ancient synagogues and thousands of ancient Jewish tombstones in a dedicated ancient Jewish Cemetery on a Mount of Olives in an try to erase all justification of Jewish History.

The initial thing Prince William should do, as a British subject, is apologize for banning Jews entrance to a British Mandate for Palestine and for British General Glubb’s racial clarification of Jews from Jerusalem in 1948.

That seems to be distant from his thoughts, however. As a central itinerary puts it: “[The] programme in a Occupied Palestinian Territories will start with a brief lecture on a story and embankment of Jerusalem’s Old City from a observation indicate during a Mount of Olives. From here His Royal Highness will transport a brief stretch to a Church of St Mary Magdalene where he will compensate his respects during a tomb of his great-grandmother, Princess Alice.” That tomb was once visited on an unaccepted revisit by his grandfather.

“The ancestral inlet of this debate is of march critical and The Duke considers it a good payoff to be endeavour a initial ever central Royal debate of Israel and a Occupied Palestinian Territories and to be means to assistance serve strengthen a loyalty between Jordan and a United Kingdom. More importantly, however, The Duke is looking brazen to building a genuine and fast attribute with a people of a region.”

In other words, a king sees Jerusalem as assigned land.

After Trump’s stipulation that he recognizes Jerusalem as a collateral of Israel and a pierce of a American Embassy to Jerusalem, a Palestinian Arabs are perplexing to find countries that are wiling to declare that Jerusalem is a collateral of Palestine. On Jun 18, 2018 Ido ben Porat reported on Arutz 7 “Jerusalem district military commander Yoram Halevy on Monday evening prevented a discussion during a Russian embassy in eastern Jerusalem, during that it was designed to announce Jerusalem as a collateral of “Palestine”.”

The Palestinian Arabs not usually designed a discussion during a Russian Embassy, they are also perplexing to use a revisit of Prince William on June 25, 2018 to have a British announce that Jerusalem is Palestinian. 

Jerusalem has always been a usually devout collateral of Judaism, a devout collateral of Islam is Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Jews face Jerusalem when they pray, a Arabs face Mecca.

Jerusalem’s Old City can't be “Occupied Palestinian Land” since it was never partial of a self-existent Palestine. It was assigned by Jordan between 1948-67 and before then was partial of a Ottoman Empire. The British invented a Kingdom of Jordan on territory that was to be partial of a Jewish homeland, slicing it from a British Mandate for Palestine (formerly partial of a Ottoman Empire). They then helped Jordan conquer and occupy a city in 1948.

On Jun 12, 2018 Caroline Glick wrote in Breitbart that

“Kensington Palace has insisted that William’s revisit to Jerusalem is partial of his central revisit to a Palestinian Authority (and what it calls a “Occupied Palestinian Territories”). That is, rather than refinement Britain’s position on a many bomb emanate in a Arab dispute with Israel, Britain motionless to use Prince William’s revisit to do what no government, other than Pakistan, ever did: claim, in an central act, that these sections of Jerusalem go to a Arabs, not a Jews.”

By dogmatic that Prince William’s revisit to Jerusalem’s Old City is partial of his channel in Palestine and not in Israel a British, obliged for a racial clarification of Jews from Jerusalem’s Old City in 1948, are now perplexing to announce that Jerusalem’s Old City (including a Temple Mount and a Western Wall) does not go to a Jews though to a Arabs. 

Until 1948 Jews were a infancy of a race in Jerusalem. On Dec 11, 2017 Amb. Dore Gold wrote in a Jerusalem Center of Public Affairs “By a mid-19th century, a British Consulate in Jerusalem done a following determination, according to this report, that we found in a Public Record Office in Kew, it states that Jews were a infancy in Jerusalem, when? already in 1863 – that’s prolonged before Theodor Herzl, before a Brits arrived, or Lord Balfour. See a man on a right, William Seward, he was Secretary of State of a United States during a American polite war, underneath President Abraham Lincoln.”

When Seward’s tenure ended, he visited a holy land, he visited Jerusalem. And he wrote a memoir. And in his memoir, he wrote, “There is a Jewish infancy in Jerusalem.” – see William Seward, Travels Around a World (1873).

Will Prince William salute a Palestinian Authority dwindle during Jerusalem’s Temple Mount? Israel should place Israeli flags during a Western Wall during Prince William’s revisit to Jerusalem’s Old City to attest a government over a site. The Knesset should pass legislation that all unfamiliar leaders that revisit Israel can usually revisit Jerusalem’s Old City accompanied by Israeli officials and salute a Israeli dwindle during a Kotel. Perhaps Israel should block Prince William’s entrance into Jerusalem’s Old City if he is going to use his revisit as a matter of support for Palestinian sovereignty. After all, Prime Minister Netanyahu does not wish to be seen as surrendering a Old City of Jerusalem.
