Jerusalem is the capital of the world and should have a status like Vatican City

Jerusalem is the most beautiful and interesting city of the world. There is a lot of history, mysterious and troubles to understand the complexity of this city, which act as holy town for 3 of the most important religions (Christian, Islamic and Judaic).

There were plenty of wars, crusades, muslim conquerring in the history, but from the 1947 (forming of the new Israel state), and after some Israel- Arab war, which Israel won on the ground, the most of Jerusalem became part of the Israel state. There are still big issues with the Palestinian living in the same area contending the Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine and moreover a general religious problem between the Islamic population (Arabs, Turkish and Persian) with the Hebrew population.

There is nothing strange if I said:
a) I am against the hate of the Arabs and Persian against the Israel, not recognizing even the Israel state itself

b) I am against the armed rebellion and policy of the Hamas (Palestinian militia) and Hezbollah (Iran backed militia in Lebanon)

c) I am also against the last decision of the Trump administration to move the Embassy of USA from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and recognizing that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.

Because it is wrong, both for historical reasons and politically. I am European and Jerusalem is the town which my ancestor fought for, to preserve, to protect(also mistaking) it when USA were even not born and still waiting to be conquered by the European, causing sufferance to local native.

Politically the momentum is completely wrong. We are coming out from 5 years of Arab spring, having destroyed stated like Iraq. Yemen and Libya, having practically destroyed Syria and causing big troubles in Egypt and Lebanon and seeding for a war between Iran and Saudi Arabia, testing it on Yemen shoulders. With bullish decision the West has been able even to move Turkey, a NATO member to become a strategic ally of the Russian Federation, which start to be once again a really big player in the region, having saved the Syria from ISIS.

For me, Jerusalem is the capital of the world not of Israel or Palestine and there can not be any doubt about that. If the history should be respected and all the blood of different religions and people should be honored, the status of Jerusalem should be like the Vatican City.

And.... yes.... UN should be in force to administrate Jerusalem bringing finally some kind of peace in the region or at least respecting and implementing many UN resolution already adopted about Jerusalem and East Jerusalem status. allowing all the interested a better life. There should be no need of new Intifada, new stabbed Israeli citizen or rocket from Gaza and of course no killed children on both side. Of course finally also the Arabs and Persian should recognize Israel as a State not obliging its athletes to hide the Israeli flag when taking part in sport ceremonies in Arabs states not repeating the shame of last October in Abu Dhabi (judo competition).

Sirs in Middle East, after 70 years let´s make a step ahead hoping you got the point and understanding that it is the right time to move forward.
