Quote:There are differing legal and diplomatic positions on Jerusalem held within the international community. Governments and scholars alike are divided over the legal status of Jerusalem under international law. Most countries of the world do not recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Many do not recognize it as a city that is properly Israel's. Many UN member states formally adhere to the United Nations proposal that Jerusalem should have an international status. The chief dispute revolves around Israel’s control of East Jerusalem, while broader agreement exists regarding the Israeli presence in West Jerusalem. De jure, the majority of UN member states and most international organisations do not recognise Israel's control of East Jerusalem which occurred after the 1967 Six Day War, nor its 1980 Jerusalem Law proclamation, which declared a "complete and united" Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Jerusalem is a contentious issue in final status peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian National Authority, which claims Jerusalem as Al Quds, the capital of a future Palestinian state.

Israel itself declared Tel Aviv its capital under David Ben Gurion. The question was very simple. Which city does this administration recognize as the capital of Israel. Still no answer. *From Wiki - Israel's financial centre is Tel Aviv, while Jerusalem is the country's most populous city, and its capital

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: Niki - How 'infantile' were the members of the Press corps , who simply wanted Carney to answer the question. He couldn't even state what the admin's previous position was on the matter. Why ? I wonder if Mr Carney will try to get them tossed out of the WH Press corps, as he did w/ FOX News. Kwickie - Weird that I left off something from Wiki, which doesn't change the fact that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel ? As it clearly stated ? Weirder still that Carney didn't even TRY to give an answer, at all. But you'll just gloss over that now, huh ?

Quote:[ii]Jerusalem is the capital under Israeli law. The presidential residence, government offices, supreme court and parliament (Knesset) are located there. The Palestinian Authority foresees East Jerusalem as the capital of its future state. The UN and most countries do not recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, taking the position that the final status of Jerusalem is pending future negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Most countries maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv and its suburbs or suburbs of Jerusalem.

How dumb do they really think he is?!? Sort'a like folks deliberately hounding Gov. Romney about his tenure at Bain, so they can twist whatever he might say? Yeah, we get the picture.

Quote:Originally posted by MAL4PREZ: Actually, the thread title is quite telling. "Now repeat after me, Mr Carney..." Rappy the human Xerox machine does nothing but hear, repeat, hear, repeat... (with some filtering in there, of course, like leaving out the most pertinent part of that wiki quote.) Rap is incapable of grokking the ability of the human brain to apply logic, since his grey matter never does any such thing. Buuuuurn! But only because it's so true.
