EU to give east Jerusalem to Palestinians: report.
An irate Israel slammed the European Union on Tuesday for the group’s planned proposal to call for east Jerusalem to be named the capital of a future Palestinian state, dividing what Tel Aviv labels its “eternal capital.”
….The document is also said to “imply” that the EU will recognize a unilateral Palestinian declaration of statehood, a move which the Palesitnian Authority said last month they would seek from the United Nations.

Aren’t the borders of what’s considered Jerusalem as opposed to a suburb pretty much arbitrary? Therefore, Israel could just unilaterally change the borders of Jerusalem to exclude East Jerusalem, and the problem goes away. What’s their game?
