Jews have no right to Western Wall, PA 'study' says

He added that the Jews had never used the site for worship until the Balfour Declaration of 1917. “This wall was never part of the so-called Temple Mount, but Muslim tolerance allowed the Jews to stand in front of it and weep over its destruction,” he wrote.

What a joke. Are they implying the Palestinians do?

[rockvillem]

Boy, who could have seen that conclusion coming from the PA? And such impressive scholarship too! Surely a Nobel Prize awaits.

[WayneS]

Wow!

Amazing.

A “study” conducted by a bunch of “palestinians” has “found” that Jews basically have NO rights to ANYTHING in Jerusalem.

I’m am truly shocked and surprised by this announcement, as I am sure ALL of you are...

[silverleaf]

this is head-banging stupid revisionist history

the Pals should be laughed off the world stage

[Tzfat]

Let them try and take it. My body will be there with many others who will never let surrender the Kotel to the pagan moslem masses.

[silverleaf]

Do they give a Nobel Prize for History Revision?

Or is that a new category this year?

[Tennessee Nana]

The Jews build it...

It was the Western Wall of the Jewish Temple...

Back in 70AD there were no Moslems or “Palistinians”

[wmfights]

Are they implying the Palestinians do?

That is their position.

[QQQQ]

if arafat got nobel prize ..... :-))

On the other hand, they just admitted that King Solomon existed in the area.

[Verginius Rufus]

Herod was half-Arab (Idumaean). Maybe they mean that the Jewish half of the wall was knocked down by the Romans and the part that is left is the Arab part.

Believe it or not, you have a lot of Evangelical Christians who feel the same way.

[rockvillem]

I think he’s aiming higher - the Nobel Peace Prize. After all, he’s solved the problem of Jerusalem. Turns out the Jews have no claim to it and this whole “temple” thing was just made up! There ya go - problem solved. Now they just need those pesky Jews to shove off.

I could have sworn I read about two ancient Jewish temples in a really old book, but I guess I should defer to this monument of modern scholarship.

And how many kapo-libs will agree with this BS?

It claims that there isn’t one stone in the wall that belongs to the era of King Solomon.

True, Herod expanded the Temple mount by building the great retaining wall. But so what? He built it for the Jewish Temple.

"The PA ministry’s study also warned that “no Muslim or Arab or Palestinian had the right to give up one stone of the Al-Buraq Wall or other religious sites.”

May as well inscribe that over the future Cordoba Mosque in New York, which will eventually spread to other buildings facing Mecca just like the one in Spain did.

It is "Waqf fi sabellillah", devoting a plot of land for Muslim religious purposes in the name of Allah...it's like a flag, claiming the territory, only this territory is America.

[bibletruth]

The Western Wall belongs to Isreal

Muslims and Palestinian are terrorist

God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ will judge and destroy all of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Haram al-Sharif in the righteous Wrath of God (El-Elohim) as found in the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ

There is nothing Noble about the Sanctuary Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Haram al-Sharif, it only represents a terrorist haven.
