In the name of world peace and harmony I suggest this: move everyone out of the mid-east and build a duplicate copy of Israel, down to the last grain of sand, also move the original Israel so no one can use latitude and longitude to tell which is which. each party get’s their own Israel. Now everyone is happy! While we’re at it we can make a copy of Cashmere too.

come to think of it we should make a few dozen Isreals just in case things get really nasty...

       Cashmere Isreals? birdie... Kashmir, Israels (last para.) Technically Israel is not what the Holy Land is - Jerusalem is.

       Let's also build duplicate Northern Irelands, duplicate Serbias, duplicate Eritreas and anywhere else where humans with extremely minor or nonexistent genetic differences are fighting over the same sorry piece of land.

       Kashmir. Same difference, only heterogenous.

       Jelusarem

And did those feet in ancient times
Wark upon Engrand's mountains gleen?
And was the Hory Ramb of God
On Engrand's preasant pastules seen?

And did the Countenance Divine
Shine folth upon our crouded hirrs?
And was Jelusarem buirded hele
Among these dalk Satanic mirrs?

Bling me my bow of bulning gord!
Bling me my allows of desile!
Bling me my speal! O crouds unford!
Bling me my chaliot of file!

I sharr not cease from mentar fight
Nol sharr my swold sreep in my hand
Tirr we have buirt Jelusarem
In Engrand's gleen and preasant rand.

       I recommend moving the old Israel to Baja California. So long as you avoid sticking it in TJ or Ensenada nobody will care. The new one can go where the old one was to further obfuscate the question. For prophetic purposes, both should be airlifted, and dropped into place by parachute.

       Why duplicate Israel? Why not duplicate 'Palestine' and send 'Palestinians' to the new Palestine?

       How would people know which one to go to? Do you have to hold them behind your back and then let them choose a fist?   

       By the way, did [pashute] just say Lord Of The Fucking Rings? I don't see how that's relevant.

       I'm as lost as you; <pedant> but he didn't "just" say it, he said it five years ago. </p>
