Jordan slams Sharon's claim to Jerusalem

By Ryan Jones

The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has responded with outrage and
farcical counterclaims to Jewish assertions of a historic and
religious right to the city of Jerusalem.

Last week, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told the United Nations General
Assembly Jerusalem is the oeternal undividedoe capital of the nation of
Israel, and a city the Jews have always held most dear.

On Monday Jordan's Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs blasted both
Sharon and the UN over what it called "a statement full of lies and
falsehoods."

"How could this world organization allow a war criminal to review 
lies based on false claims and biblical legends in Palestine," the
committee wondered in an official statement released to the press.

According to the experts who chair the committee, "historic,
demographic and religious facts" as well as "archaeological
discoveries" prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that "the land of
Palestine and Jerusalem have been inhabited by Arab Canaanites for
over 5,000 years."

Oddly enough, the Arabs also claim to be descendants of Abraham, who
lived some 4,000 years ago, a full millennium too late to be the
father of the "Arab Canaanites" whom he interacted with during his
sojourn in this land.

In fact, Israel today abounds with layers of archaeological sites
attesting to the land's long and deep connection with the Jewish
People.
