Jerusalem - The Obstacle Or The Key To Israeli-Palestinian Peace?

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said on Monday that it was unlikely that Israel and the Palestinian Authority could reach their goal of achieving a peace accord by the end of the year. The Prime Minister said the main obstacle blocking the peace process was the volatile status of Jerusalem. While tensions are already running high in the city following a series of terror attacks by the city's Arab residents, it seems that the fate of Jerusalem - the cradle of all three major monotheistic religions - holds both the final obstacle and the final solution to one of the most profound conflicts in human history. 29/07/08
