UNESCO Resolution Ignores Jewish Ties To Temple Mount,
Calls Israel An 'Occupying Power'
** Blogger note: Well who built all the Temples on the temple mount in Jerusalem over the past 5000 years?
- The only truthful answer is Israel ...
Read the Old Testament as just history folks! Take notes!
- Then just about 1400 years ago the {Islamic religion popup and claimed the temple mount based upon a dream that the Mohmmad had about riding from Mecca to Jerusalem; one night on a magic horse named Hussein (Distance To Mecca From Jerusalem is: 769 miles) then rode on into Heaven and came back}.
So there is no real reason for the Islamic's to claim the temple mount or Jerusalem at all!
===========================
The ideological perfidy and willful ahistoricism of the United Nations
and its affiliate entities was on despicable display again last week
when an official resolution by a U.N. body referred to Israel as an “occupying power” of the famous Temple Mount in Jerusalem, among other outrageous indignities.
As a large part of
a broader, virulently anti-Israel resolution, the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) refused even
to refer to the Temple Mount as such, instead adopting the Arabic title,
the “Al-Aqsa Mosque/Al-Haram al-Sharif” – while refusing to even
acknowledge the factually undeniable, age-old Jewish links to the famous
Western Wall and its environs.
The resolution even complained about Israeli plans to build what the Times of Israeldescribed as “an egalitarian prayer service space” at the nearby, remarkably handsome Robinson’s Arch.
This is worse than tendentious; it’s vicious. There is no doubt –
historical, archaeological, cultural, or religious – that the Temple
Mount and especially the Western Wall is, in toto, the
single holiest site for all Judaism, the very location most central to
the entire religion. By comparison, the Al-Aqsa Mosque there is
considered only the third holiest site for Islam, which can point to no
historically verifiable connection to the site until well after Islam
was founded. FACT!
Yes, adherents of Islam now claim that Muhammad once was transported
hundreds of miles, in a dream, to the spot – but even if someone doesn’t
find the claim fanciful (I make no judgment here), it clearly gives
Muslims less reason to treasure the area than Jews do. Muslims, after
all, still have their Mecca (prayers at which are, by some Islamic
traditions, worth 200 times the value of prayers said at the Al-Aqsa
Mosque).
To what should be Israelis’ everlasting credit, they use their
control of the Temple Mount area to keep it open to people of all faiths
– something that cannot be said for the mosque, which is forbidden even
for visits by non-Muslims.
A prior UNESCO resolution had harshly criticized Israeli archaeological
excavations near the Old City, which even further establish Jewish ties
to the area for three full millennia, well over twice as long as Islam’s
more tenuous links thereto. UNESCO is, by its very name, supposed to be
dedicated to education, science, and culture, yet when Israel pursues
scientific and cultural research for educational (and other) purposes,
the hypocrites at UNESCO urge that the research be halted.
This is a sign of intense moral rot at the heart of UNESCO and the U.N.
