Mosque vandalism in the Holy Land condemned by a Rabbi
There has been a mosque burned down in Israel / Paelstine. It has been condemned by all faith leaders and teh relevant interfaith forum of Israels head, Rabbi Ron Kronish in a press release.
Pardon my taking his name for a moment but for Gods sake don't let this descend into an intifada with tit for tat reprisals.
The Palestinians have accepted in an interview today on Russia Today teh need only to have East Jerusalem and 'two capitals side by side.'
As an Anglican Christian and soemone who has studied regional / national / capital government I think on practical grounds both states will need to cooperate to prevent any Berlin farce like situations from the Cold War.
Ideally to prevent border walls going through places of worship the territories of Bethlehem Ramallah and Jerusalem should in my opinion be a common metropolitan area.However that is for the peoples of Israel and Palestine to decide based on the recommendations and elected mandates of their governments

UN vote today
Sky at 7am and Russia Today @ 8am British Summer time noted that the Israeli and Palestinian security forces were cooperating bilaterally to ensure any protests / celebrations at the vote in the UN on Palestinian statehood in the Palestinian Territories and along its borders occurs peacefully.
This is how it would work if there was said recognition and a common territory of Bethlehem and Jerusalem and Ramallah.
Thus peaceful celebration is a good way of aiding the UN vote and the democratic aspirations of both states against arms smuggling and imported terrorism into their combined territory and has a precedent with the Entente cordiale signed in the last century between The UK and French Republic.
Since then UK and French nationals have served in each others armies and police forces based on where they reside and this could be the precedence for remaining Israeli citizens living in citizens within the bilaterally agreed border of the new state to serve and participate in the Palestinian security forces especially now that Hamas and Fatah are in coalition and thus Palestinian Authoritys state security may no longer be factional.
If it gets dangerous this is one time to go home and not cause a revolt or intifada as today the world is rejecting Al Queada by removing its main grievance, the unresolved status of the Palestinian people since 1967 by aiding the creation of their own state in accordance with the Road Map for a two state solution.Hence dialogue is the best option following on from todays and subsequent votes at the General Assembly (regarding enhanced observer status) and the security council.

Other examples in the London area can be obtained from Job centre or European Social Funded projects such as Seetec and initiatives by the new government and the reform of welfare into a universal credit and other related state benefits (such as Housing and Council Tax benefit assessed on the basis of receipt of Income Support or the new universal credit).This is being done to aid those on long term sickness benefits seek part time employment on the possible way to full time work on the basis of their ability and not seasonal media pressure.
These courses are usually available if you are on Employment and Support allowance and optional if you are on Incapacity benefit.That written sometimes however courses are also run In Greater London at your local boroughs Adult education centres to aid those coming out of full time secondary and FE education, demob from HM Combined Cadet forces, Police Cadets or HM Adult services and those starting new businesses or changing career on the basis of Job centre advice if civilian or charity advice such as help for heroes and the British legion if leaving the armed services or while being in the reserves.
If I can add one thing personally based on life experience and some educated guesswork and the fact that Hillingdon has a NATO base nearby and now UK immigration rules against Commonwealth nationals, while foreign diplomats are governed by diplomatic law and serve at Her Majestys pleasure on government advice and appointment procedures to the Court of St James regulated by the FCO as devolved from Parliament, their military are also similarly governed by post 1945 procedures and conduct.
Do not have a go at them for their countries or the UNs decided policies or their relatives and friends and churches / faiths as UK equivilants in other countries operate on similar regulations unless it breaches UK law.To do so could mean that the world would lose its head at a time when frankly those who can do things and want to live peacefully and democratically the world over are really needed.Instead as civilians take it through the civilian police force of the relevant part of the UK unless an imminent threat to life. In the UK these can be reported online to the Met Police, The cross community and Christian denomination PSNI in Northern Ireland or MI5 (the UK Security Service) on their report form websites.
I write this as the children of Cold War diplomats are now UK citizens and subjects if still here and settled lawfully living peaceful lives. In an age of allegedly credible threats, lets remember that the majority of public figures relatives live peaceful and lawful lives starting families and being members of the community should they wish to get active in supporting others who lawfully settle here.With the Royal wedding recently some may serve their ‘homelands’ in the future in their civil service according to that states procedures and ways of recruitment as the next generation takes over, becoming dual nationals and some may not.
They have a right to family life as much as UK citizens under the UNC Human rights and the European one and the present Human rights act derived from them. As such they too have legal protection under the laws of the state as well provided they too don’t break the law.Areas that cause concern are people trafficking, arms smuggling and illegal drugs cartels as these destabilise interpersonal and hence interstate relations which in the past have risked arms races and proliferation.
On 9/11 lets remember that and find a better way.

No theres not gonna be an intifada.
Turkeys expulsion of an Israeli diplomat
Turkey has expelled a diplomat because its state has refused to apologise for its handling of a protest flotilla to that territory. This isn't Cyprus and the EU, the state concerned is Israel. In these circumstances this will not necessarilly lead to another intifada as such expulsions are temporary and show one governments displeasure of anothers actions on a particular matter. Israel either has had or is having an inquiry on it for its democratically elected legislature and both governments act according to these recommendations and international law.
That is why the Palestinian Authority recognised as a stae at the UN this month could be a peacebroker in this.

my last post on this blog
Please God,
For the sake of all that was dear to me growing up in the 1980s and 1990s, mum, dad, grandad my friends and family make the world democratic. That way things work better, the Church of England and religious tolerance of minorities continues as in places in the world the Church of England is in minority and part of the one catholic and apostolic church.
Resolve the territorial dispute so that the two state solution works and Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah are united securely as joint soveriegn territory under the UN.
Amen

shootings in Israel
Southern israel shootings
Southern Israel shootings BBC News online has reported that Israel is investigating shots being fired at it from across its border with Egypt south of the Gaza territory that was handed back in 2005. This territory was part of Israel in 1948 and is not 'occupied territory.'
It is up to the Egyptian democracy to co-operate as part of its peace treaty with Israel in order to stop the loss of life that only fanatics would want in order to stop a new Palestinian state being successful.
It is also why peace walls outside of urban areas have a part to play in making Israel secure if the border is internationally recognised.
This does not negate from a joint status solution for Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah as the Palestinian assembly is next door to a peace wall.
Thus from a practical viewpoint it is better for a common security force for that 'tri city area' that has the confidence of all its residents.
I apologise if writing this so quickly after it happened is disrespectful.

Syria
The Syrian government has started to use tanks against its population in the city of Hama. This has been condemned by the UK government. There is a mediated peace process through teh medditteranean Union and teh Arab League and as such the violence should cease. Turkey has provided peaceful mediation in the past as Israel and SYria are in a cold peace and after Lebanon and Gaza withdrawals, a solely Israeli intervention could jeopardise its peace agreements with other states and jeopardise a peace accord with Palestine as it seeks statehood at the UN in September.
However any UN led military intervention has to be done after a UN resolution and Chapeter 7 resolution.

There is no need for an initifada
Yesterday there was a suicide bombing in Jerusalem.
The civilian police force of Israel in conjunction with the Palestinian authority are investigating the matter after it was condemned by both the Israeli PM and the Palestinian Authority Prime Minister.
There is no need for the pointless loss of life that another intifada would bring.

Update on media leaks
I have not watched TV for over a year and this is based on UK Radio and newspaper (Guardian 24/01/11) coverage.
Why the peace in the Middle East can and should continue.
1) The Palestinian authority prime minister has advocated the biggest yerusalem in Jewish history. This is an act of statesmanship from his perspective if the two sides do not want an international peace presence that could bring troops that with the best of intentions couldn’t keep the peace or have international legal guidelines and rules of engagement that are watertight.
2) The Israelis accepting the praise of Har Homar and as a gesture of peace being prepared to offer that as settlements, perhaps for allowing the reconnection of Jerusalem and Bethlehem (important for Christians).
In short both sides at that time are already really close to an agreement that could work. The new Israeli government needs to embrace these terms if it is not prepared to offer a Tri city area of Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah under joint jurisdiction with both states sovereign legislatures sitting in there respective parliament buildings and international observer forces aiding that. Such orders are:
Swiss Guard
Knights Templar
Order of St John which heals with a hospital in Jerusalem and declares itself an observer at the UN.
Red Cross / Crescent movement that operate across the world with similar obejectives.
But in operational decisions on day to day matters should defer to properly drawn up rules of engagement for the legal authority of the world, The United Nations as successor to the League of Nations that granted the United Kingdom the international mandate after world war 1. Other NGOs that I know of that aid this process are the Disasters Emergency Ctte and UNESCO / UNICEF. The killing of pilgrims is as evil as the killing of residents in a place of pilgrimage as much as at any time which is one reason why no people has ever managed to hold onto it. That is why Islamic extremism is wrong as much as the Holocaust was and moderation and toleration between faiths is what is required.
If its allowed a special ctte of the UN would be required to deliver this constitution and rules of engagement voted on at the UN and agreed by referendum of their states respective populations.
In the EU there is a legal principle that if a house or road has to be rebuilt out of damage or for infrastructure reasons, the owners are compensated. This may sound statist but to fail to prevent another intifada from outside interests such as Al Queada by any state or church or faith or sect for selfish reasons would be and I’m gonna be absolutely candid, pure evil. This is especially the case if Iran, Israel, India and Pakistan don’t disarm their nukes along with the rest of the world as all are now trying to develop peaceful civilian fuel in geologically safe areas.
To conclude Churchill had a saying that democracy was the least worst of all the systems. If the new Israeli government doesn’t learn from this disclosed information and works with Mr Abbas, would Hamas win ground democratically. Those with the knowledge as to whether they are prepared to renounce or amend their founding charter that promises to wipe Israel from the map had better make an assessment that reading one article in the press I cannot. It is not a crime to say I don’t know I’ll have to check if it stops another intifada. Lets remember that Northern Ireland saw both sides commit to exclusively peaceful means and elections and referenda. I challenge Hamas to do the same and the Arab world to aid peaceful purchase of any settlements in Palestine should a two state solution require that and the government of Israel to do the same for any settlements outside of Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah or within Israels pre 1967 boundaries should the two sides want to be neighbours across a border rather than next door. That would be better than another Kosovo and could aid dialogue and defeat Al Queada.
