- **Historical Context**: Israel took control of **West Jerusalem** in 1948, following the first Arab-Israeli war. By 1950, all Arab inhabitants had fled or were evicted.
- **Land Ownership**: A significant portion of the land was owned by Palestinians, but Israeli laws transferred this land to Jewish organizations.
- **International Recognition**: By 1967, West Jerusalem was mostly recognized as part of Israel by Western nations, but not by Middle Eastern countries.
- **Palestinian Perspective**: Palestinians have not accepted the Israeli annexation sentimentally or in principle, though they do not actively push for West Jerusalem as part of their aspired capital.
