Moslems Eliminating Evidence of Jewish Presence from Temple Mount
Excerpts from The Jerusalem Post (2001.03.30, p. A4)
"The Moslem Wakf has brought a four meter-by-two meter stone cutter into the Temple Mount compound and is cutting stones taken from an ancient building on the site to prepare new building blocks, the Committee to Prevent the Destruction of Antiquities on the Temple Mount charged yesterday in a request to the High Court of Justice for an urgent interim injunction…
"In its latest address to the High Court, the Committee charged that ‘the Moslem Wakf was perpetrating serious harm to the antiquities on the Temple Mount by sawing and cutting ancient stones to prepare them for secondary use in various building projects. During thse days, it is cutting large stones whose dimensions are more than half a meter by half a meter.’
"The petitioners charged that the saw had not been on site earlier, and that it had to have been brought into the Temple Mount compound by a huge truck and a crane.
"’The new saw is causing enormous damage because of the unnecessary destruction of the ancient stones, some of which may have been used in the construction of the Holy Temple,’ the petitioners wrote.
"In an earlier address to the court dated [03.25], the Committee charged that hundreds of volunteers and [Israeli-Arab] members of the Israeli Islamic Movement come to the Temple Mount on the weekends and during the week, indicating that the Wakf believes it is a matter of urgency to speed and expand the work.
"The Committee also charged that the Wakf is carrying out work in a 15-meter hole that was uncovered while they were working on the compound’s eastern wall.
The PA has done the same with "Jacob’s Tomb" in Arab-occupied Shekhem (Arabic "Nablus"), "refurbishing" it as an Islamic mosque stripped of any Judaic connection!!! The Palestinians’ intent, which they achieved, was to thoroughly eliminate any physical evidence connecting Jews to our holy site – in the same way they’re doing on the Temple Mount… the most brazen and blatant atrocity of the last two millennia!
