As far as I am aware, there are more Jews in the US than there are in Israel anyway - this would definately make it easier for them to visit or move to.<BR/><BR/>Taking Israel out of the Middle East, giving the Palestinians back their land - definately a sound idea.<BR/><BR/>Putting them in Utah..... not sure about that. But then I'm from Britain - would I even get a say?
