Actually Jesus visited Jerusalem. In fact he was born there. Based on 
that, the area should be made a homeland for Christians. Since there are 
not Christian homelands, and the Christian diaspora has dispersed 
Christians to far flung areas of the earth, it is only right. Sorry, 
Jews.... you'll have to go back to Egypt.

More seriously, when Jewish people were deciding where to make Israeli, 
there was some consideration to having in Saudi Arabia, instead of 
Palestine as I recall.
