Bush - US back plan to divide Jerusalem:
Standing alongside Abbas at a press conference, Olmert today announced in English that "We have to complete the Annapolis process this year – this year."
The Israeli leader was referring to talks started at last November's U.S.-backed Annapolis conference, which seeks to create a Palestinian state – at least on paper – before President Bush leaves office in January.
According to top diplomatic sources, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who visited the region last week, pressed Israel to sign a document by the end of the year that would include Jerusalem by offering the Palestinians a state in Israel's capital city as well as in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. - reported on WND

GOP suspends Convention because of act of God
The convention “will suspend all activities except those that are absolutely necessary,” McCain said late Sunday afternoon (the same day as the Olmert announcement) “We hope to resume some normal activities but frankly that is the hands of God.” - quote from Foxnews.com, parenthesis added.

Would you mind "dumbing this one down" a bit? I don't get it.
It's just interesting to me that the US gets involved in messing with Jerusalem and on the day of the announcement a hurricane hits -- and McCain referred to it as being 'in the hands of God.'
