Arabs in eastern Jerusalem told Reuters they intend to exploit next weeks’ papal visit to involve the Pope in a “war for each piece of land…every tile in the house” in the capital. The statements add evidence to charges that the Pope’s visit already is involved more with politics than religion.

Adnan Husseini, former director-general of the Muslim Waqf department in Jerusalem and now special advisor to PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, told the news agency, "There is a battle on every piece of land in Jerusalem. In every room, every house in Jerusalem there is a battle.”
