Not the sign causing the seething |
The Israeli Municipality of West Jerusalem set up Wednesday a sign reading “Temple Mount” in reference to the nearby al-Aqsa Mosque compound.Just a reminder: It was called the Temple Mount (Har HaBayit) many hundreds of years before Mohammed was born.
The sign, which was placed near the Al-Nather Gate of the compound, was made available in three languages: Hebrew, Arabic and English.
Jews refer to the site as the “Temple Mount,” claiming it was the site of two Jewish temples destroyed in ancient times. The site is home to the third holiest mosque in Islam, and houses the al-Aqsa Mosque Building and the Dome of the Rock.
The Jordan-run Islamic Waqf Department, which has administrative jurisdiction over the compound, said the set up of a sign featuring the Jewish term “Jewish Temple” instead of the internationally recognized Islamic term, Al-Aqsa Mosque, is nothing but an attempt to “Judaize” the holy site and the city of Jerusalem.
But we apparently live in a post-historical period where things such as sequences of events are a Zionist plot.
