As you said:"The "layering" of religious sites over the centuries IS a problem, I concede- but it shouldnt be!! Christians, Jews, Muslims really worship the same God. So why cant they SHARE these holy places? A bit utopian and simplistic, isnt it?"
The closest thing to what you ask for has been provided only by the Israelis.
And that's a fact.
The Israeli authorities opened the city to freedom of worship, freedom of movement, and freedom of expression.
When theygained control, for the first time in 19 years, the holy places were opened to visitors of all three faiths, and it has remained that way since 1967. In fact, no guardians of the holy places have ever before been so permissive in granting access to worshippers.
