    A total of 50,000 is being planned. Multiply that by 4 and you've got another 200,000 Israelis inhabiting the eastern portion of Jerusalem. What I don't understand is why the Palestinian Arabs cannot simply admit their error for having rejected the UN sanctioned partition plan way in the beginning? They didn't mind being occupied by Egypt and Jordan until they received another major humiliation in 1967. Today they are blowing civilians & themselves up in cafes out of desperation. Some "liberation movement". As a rule, losers of conflicts usually do not get much say in any matter. They should be happy to get whatever is offered to them. Imagine what it would be like if things were the other way around?
