the people, that 80% of your bible is written in this area, when you here our president say 367 borders, that means gives up all of old jerusalem, basically he would use a mask to say east jerusalem or if you hear the west bank, that's where the ko*f nans was made with the heart of israel. >> presently, the palestinians said there's no room for jews in a west bank pan stin yan state, how do the west jews of samaria respond to that? >> they say -- they stand up very well to things like this, they say, you know what, they're looking at the world of god, they're saying the world of god says this is our land, god gave us toize sam, aib mam and david, and they're standing on those things. >> how many jews are on the west bank? >> about 250 thousand.
