When you look at Jerusalem, it seems wars and conflicts have just erupted century after century all around it. Jerusalem itself doesn't seem to get a lot of tumult, just sits there. I spoke to a very knowledgeable Christian about this. I don't entirely believe the whole religion as it's taught today, but he has interesting insights. Jesus marked his spot of future resurrection at Calvary. You can pinpoint it on a map. Today, it's surrounded by a graveyard, and the surrounding region is devout muslim. I can't remember where's the biblical reference but Jesus, despite all his miracles, is not to walk over a graveyard. How is that a pure coincidence?

And Farsight confirmed that Jesus is a big player in this game. So one must wonder if some biblical prophecies are quite true even in their present day distortions.
