JERUSALEM 2020

JERUSALEM 2020 proposes that people worldwide help to create a "New Deal" in the Middle East by becoming more aware & involved. This ethical & compassionate, win-win agreement would employ, encourage & teach the principles of peace, wellness, truth, reconciliation & sustainability on a daily basis. IMAGINE the Old City of Jerusalem as a giant "Home" & the Mt. of Olives as a giant "Garden". The Home & Garden combine to create an exciting, new opportunity & a new chapter as a "LANDbridge" (significantly widening the Green Line and the buffer zone) between East & West Jerusalem. The Home & Garden Peace Plan is based on forward thinking, mutual understandings, sociopolitical realities as well as sensitivities to geography & nature. The LANDbridge would consist of a relatively small piece of real estate that two states: the State of Israel & the State of Ishmael (Palestine) can share & claim. Instead of fighting over the land or forcing religious / political beliefs upon anyone, each of the people residing within this demilitarized, depoliticized LANDbridge would be free to express their nationality & beliefs.
