Study: East Jerusalem Pullout Won't Bring Peace -Etgar LefkovitsAn Israeli pullout from Arab neighborhoods of eastern Jerusalem will not solve the dispute over Jerusalem, according to a working paper over a future division of Jerusalem released by the Jerusalem Institute for Israel Studies.
The academics and experts note that any Israeli pullout from Arab neighborhoods of Jerusalem without an agreement is likely to lead to serious deterioration in the security situation in the country. [The move] will be viewed by Palestinians as weakening of Israel's sovereignty over Jerusalem, and local Arab residents could assist or join terror groups.
