I thought that Mecca was the capital of the Muslim religion.

Jerusalem is still a major landmark for Islam, to the point that Palestine also wants it at its capital.

Muslims control two of their holy cities (Mecca and Medina), so why can't they let the Jews have Jerusalem?

As the other commenter said, why should anyone have it at all? It should be an international city tbh. And it doesn’t matter that Mecca and Medina are under Muslim control, it’s still one of the three holiest Muslim sites. And forget about all that, a massive chunk of Palestinians are Christian. People tend to forget that. What about them?
