Which religion deserves Jerusalem out of Christianity Islam and Judaism and why?

One of the highest values held in many parts of the world today is democracy. True democracy means that the city belongs to those people who live there, just as other cities around the world belong to their respective citizens - without concern for their religious beliefs. Of course, for real democracy to exist, the population must not be established by the forcible removal of the people of one faith, or the politically motivated settlement of people of another faith. In a democratically constituted Jerusalem, the rights of each faith can be protected and each would own the holy sites important to that faith. There is no need for Jerusalem to 'belong' to any one faith.
