Maybe it meant the same to him as it does to you!
You need to dig into history a bit more. T I is right on target.
A temple that size is hardly just a cover. Anyway, you may be correct that they just decided to build a temple on the biggest open ground they could find. But it doesn’t erase the fact that this is a Jewish holy site. To Islam it is conquered territory, Renamed Al-Quds in order to rewrite history and mis-identify it. The same way they renamed Constantinople, or Spain. Nevertheless, they will go ape-**** if it’s rightfully torn down because it doesn’t belong there. Pardonne moi the language.
