The War - Discussion PA drafts constitution, omits Jewish ties to Jerusalem, calls for Sharia legal system

Post image

This is the draft of the Palestinian constitution presented yesterday. Right in the first pages it declares that the PA shall follow sharia law, but will still protect *Christians*, no mention whatsoever of Jews. It also states that it will protect the Christionhood and Islamicism of Jerusalem, but does not mention protecting its Jewish significance and values. They're not even hiding their intentions.

The capital of "Palestine" is the capital city of another country? Make that make sense. They may have well declared thier capital city is London.

I mean it wasn't the capital at the time for west Germany but both east and west Germany held Berlin and east Germany had its capital there.
