Again, here's what that nasty racist hag wrote...
allegedly. theres no proof that was the location of some grand temple. maybe lots of jewish stuff retroactively lands itself right underneath islamic structures. did you ever think of that? jealous much?
She accuses Jews of a conspiracy, retroactively planting evidence of a Temple. That we're "jealous".
Vile.
And it's not that there's no Temple under the Dome of the Rock. She says there's no evidence of a Temple on any part of the Mount.
anyway, im not questioning whether jews had a special temple, or two or three or four.
but when jon says The existense of the Second Temple on the Temple Mount is not in question. it just makes sense to me that one might call the location of ones temple the temple mount. but why should i have any certainty the mount of a jewish temple was in the location of al aqsa mosque?

im sticking by my earlier statement, theres no proof that was the location of some grand temple. there is no fact a temple was once located on the place we call today the temple mount, and it is not pretty clear.
That's clear denial.
The existense of the Second Temple on the Temple Mount is not in question.
by you jon, but not by me.
and in case anyone is listening in, i am not saying, nor do i believe there is no evidence of any Jewish presence in the area and every bit of archaeology found there is fake. it just means i dont believe biblical lore.

That's Temple Denial. Be honest. No serious scholarship denies Herod's Temple on the Mount. We're talking history, not biblical lore.

OP
Out of fairness, they should also include examples of Palestinian leaders' bigotry against Israelis

Perhaps we should judge these people by their actions rather than their words...

Please. Most of those quotes refer to terrorists, not Arabs or Pal'ns in general.

Aha, if it's from the "oppressed" like Hamas, it can't be racist antipathy vs. Jews...

This resolution attacks Jewish historical claims to the Mount, as Fatah acknowledges....

Are you being deliberately disingenuous? Have you seen the Fatah/PA reaction to UNESCO?

I'm not sure if calling Arabs "predators" instead of "wild beasts" is much better.

It's most probable that the remains of the Temples are right under the Dome of the Rock

It may surprise you, but some people, including me have higher evidentiary standards than you.
