However, there are little corners of realism here and there — non-politicians who can see that if peace is to come, compro- mises will have to be made, even in the Holy City. "I don't see that our retaining all of East Jerusalem is a solu- tion, only because I don't think the Palestinians will accept it. I think it's a red line for them. They've been saying it all along, and I think they mean it — they'll fight to the end over this issue," said one resident of east Talpiot - a New York immigrant, modern Orthodox, political moderate who knows very well that his is a mi- nority position in Jewish east Jerusalem.

In the meantime, the Palestinians are staking their claim, and Israel is trying to figure out how to roll them back. A full-scale intifada hasn't come to east Jerusalem yet, but who knows?
