Exactly! Someone should remind the Catholic Church that the Christian Holy sites in Jerusalem 'belong' to ALL CHRISTIANS..not just the Vatican..(rolling eyes). Frankly, I don't want the Palestinians in charge of one single Christian Holy site!!

Oh Right!!! As far as I know, the Catholics don't believe in the biblical millenial reign of Christ from Jerusalem which will happen in the very near future... The 'Church' has no biblical claim to any of the inherited land...
