3-WAY PARTITION OF JERUSALEM IN THE MAKING
The visit of the Catholic Pope to Israel was more than a pilgrimage to
historical Christian sites. According to more than one Israeli source, the
Israeli government has already secretly agreed with US and European
negotiators to give up control of Jerusalem and have it partitioned into 3
separate zones--one for Israel, one for Arabs, and one for Christians. The
Pope was in Israeli to help stake out Catholic claims and to ensure that
the Catholic Church has overall authority over the future Christian
sector. While the press tried to steer the Pope into supporting
Palestinian claims, the Pope's public statements clearly pointed to backing
up the secret deal between Israeli and NWO insiders. "Jerusalem has always been revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims," he said. "Jerusalem is the Holy City par excellence. It forms part of the common patrimony of our religions and of the whole of humanity."
Timed to coincide with the Pope's arrival, Israeli authorities announced
that Israel will be yielding control to more land within the occupied
territories. After the current unilateral withdrawal, the PLO will now
control 41% of the West Bank. Of even greater significance was the
announcement that Israel will be relinquishing control to the PLO of 3
suburbs around Jerusalem. This latest compromise increases Israel's
security task immensely. Rather than being bottled up in the West Bank,
the PLO will now have a foothold for terrorism right in Jerusalem. While
all 3 suburbs being turned over are predominantly Arab, allowing PLO police and administrative control always injects more arms and badge-toting
radicals into the Jerusalem scene.
Reinforcing my view that the Powers That Be (PTB) are working on more
than an Israeli-Arab solution, a PLO committee member, Faysal Husseini,
told Al Mejallah (an Arab magazine) that the PLO was holding talks over the future status of Jerusalem, in both Rome and Paris. Participating are the
Catholic Church, Israel, the PLO and select French EU leaders. The
Palestinians want the eastern part of Jerusalem, which was captured by
Israel during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, to be the capital of its future
independent state. The Catholics want the major Christian historical sites
and cathedrals to be designated as an "international protectorate." Of
course Israel wants the Jewish sectors as well as the temple mount, which
is now shared with the famous Arab "Dome of the Rock."
ANALYSIS: The only answer to the latter conflict is, of course, UN
mediation and control. Notice that, as in every NWO sponsored "peace
process," whether it be in Israel, Taiwan, or Ireland, the only direction
of compromise allowed on the bargaining table favors the Left and is
hostile towards true independence and liberty. While Israel continues to
insist that it will not accept a divided Jerusalem (controlled by the UN),
the evidence indicates otherwise. It seems as if the Israeli government's
only goal is to find ways to condition their own people for change, rather
than take a firm stand and hold it. But here's the key question. If this
whole process is a "done deal" then why do negotiations keep breaking down between Israel, the Arabs and globalist leaders?
The answer is a little complex. I can't prove all of this, but here is
what I think is going on. First, let's look at each party's bottom
line--his ultimate goal: The Israeli people (if I may generalize) want a
secure homeland for Jews with fixed defensible borders. The honest Arabs
want their own land without the intrusiveness of Israeli controls and
regulations (which are heavy handed and socialistic to the extreme). The
Arab leaders, with few exceptions, are no longer moderate. They want and
are preparing for a war of extermination against the Jews--despite the
rhetoric. Israeli leaders (speaking only of those who currently hold power
in the Labor and Likud parties) have made a pact with NWO leaders to sell
out Israel to UN control. What their full motives are, I don't know. But
like so many NWO wanna-be leaders they seem to have an allegiance to an
agenda that goes beyond personal wealth and power (which they already
have). It is as if they are committed to a grand system that is above them
all individually. The NWO leaders themselves also want war in the Middle
East, but they intend to see that the Arabs are defeated in the coming
conflict.
Out of war, they hope to bring international discipline to an area that
is wont to do its own thing--which is never allowed in the emerging concept
of world governance. While Arab peoples are easily manipulated, the Jews
are independent and, in the minds of globalists, must be put in a box they
cannot easily get out of. The NWO intends to crush the last vestige of
Israeli nationalism and integrate this prickly pocket of stubborn Jews into
the general global order under a UN Jerusalem mandate--a mandate globalists failed to implant on Israel in 1947. I have my doubts the globalists will succeed. It is interesting to note that one insider to the Oslo accords leaked word that what Israel secretly agreed to at Oslo was to yield Israel borders back to the original 1947 mandate. While radical beyond every Israeli's conception, if true, it would certainly help explain why Israeli
leaders keep pointing to a tri-partite Jerusalem. Frankly, I don't think
the partition will be fully implemented until after the next Middle East
war. There are too many Israeli inhabitants to dislodge. When war comes
(not if), settlers will be removed more easily. I'd also look for the
Israeli military to hand the world a surprise they aren't expecting.
