THE JERUSALEM ACADEMY

" Specifically Jerusalem bearingthe root of world conflict as well as the key to its salvation, has increasingly become the focus of world interest and international diplomacy, as well as a place for inter-religious conferences and encounters. Time is ripe to take action towards initiating a process of deliberate transformation thus opening a new area of peace and well-being for entire mankind."[1]

My thanks to Joyce for drawing my attention to this initiative of the Global Marshall Plan / Club of Budapest / Ervin Laszlo / Cultural Creatives initiative. I will be adding to this article later, but you should all be doing independent research on this.

A first step is to look into the conditions for peace and coexistence between
Israel and Palestine on a national level – disregarding the specific
situation and demands ofJerusalem and the Old City. As stated in A I. 2 we
will proceed step by step until reaching the core – the Old City and its
Temple Mount. (page 49)
