During the current final status negotiations on
Jerusalem there are suggestions of compromised solutions including:
The Palestinian Authority will have total responsibility over religious
sites, the Aqsa and Holy Sepulchre, as well as administrative responsibilities
over East Jerusalem. The capital of Palestinian will become parts of
Jerusalem neighborhoods such as Abu Dees while postponing final resolution
of the political future of east Jerusalem to the future. What is your
opinion of this suggested solution? (Source: JMCC Poll, June 2000)

(Israeli View) Looking at the issue of JERUSALEM, the
Israeli position on this issue was: Israeli sovereignty in Jerusalem
which will also include "Maale Edomim" "Gush Etzion" and "Givat Zeev".
The Capital of the Palestinian State, will be established in neighborhoods
currently part of east Jerusalem and will be named El Kuds. Palestinians
will have full sovereignty over some of these neighborhoods and wide
authonomy in others. A special arrangement with the Palestinians will
take place in the "Old City" under overall Israeli sovereignty. Palestinians
will also be the guarantors in "Har Habait".
Would you say that Israel's position on Jerusalem
was right, that Israel could compromise more, or that Israel made already
too much of a compromise? (Source: PSR, July 2000)

Looking at the issue of Jerusalem, the Palestinian
side demanded full sovereignty over the Arab neighborhoods and
holy places in East Jerusalem. Some media reports say also that
the Palestinian side agreed to allow Israel to annex the settlements
of Ma'aleh Adumim, Givat Zeev, and Gush Etzion, to become part
of West Jerusalem and to put the Jewish Quarter and the Wailing
Wall under Israeli sovereignty. What is your opinion of this position? (Source: PSR, July 2000) |

In the framework of the final status negotiations,
do you support the idea that says that Jerusalem remains unified and
a capital of Israel, and to have Jerusalem (Abu Deis), which lies outside
the boundaries of present Jerusalem, as the Palestinian Capital, and
provided that the Aqasa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock be outside Israel's
sovereignty and administered by the Palestinian? (Source: JMCC Poll,
