The Al-Aqsa site is also revered by Jews as the location of their ancient temple, destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD. Very Interesting that The Bais Hamikdash was built by King Solomon way before the Bab-baloneyans and teh Romans destroyed it and way before Mohammad the pedophile had his hashish induced fantasy of a flying jackass

when will israel finnally throw out the waqf that is destroying archeaological traces on the temple mount? when will the sovereign country of israel finally reign over its territory without other countries telling it what to do and what not to do? really a shame that we can't dig in the remains of our temple in our land

Does Israel stick in jordanians' affairs other than sending them tourists ? What the hell these people stick in Israel's affairs.We are in our land and must do what ever we want on it! What the hell?!?When are we going to wake up? When are we going to destroy that monster ,constructed over our Temple and stop praying in the outside wall as if we were strangers and unwanted visitants in our own land? What an absurd for ourselves to accept such anomaly! Israel should cut this crap once and for all and give a message to these intromissors to go whinning in the hell! They are disrespectfull towards our land just because WE allow them to be so!

It is none of the business of Jordan to meddle in Israel's internal affairs. This historical site belongs to Israel since ancient time.

he has probably a;ready ordered everything stopped

while not under Al-Aqsa mosque itself, could harm its foundations.... --------------- in the venacular..... Bull Construction whether Muslim or israeli should have an independent body control constuction on the site ... currently it is only one sided in favor of the muslims leaving jewish artifacts at risk on the site....

Temple Mount by ARABS????? Seems to me the "mosque" is in more trouble from ARAB hands than it is from the rebuliding of the bridge. I say...Knock down the BRIDGE and have the ARABS go up from another route!!!!

During the 1990s the wakf engaged in massive excavations and construction *within* the Temple Mount, yet Jordan never complained. Nor, to its shame, did Israel. Yet now Jordan complains of work taking place *outside* the Mount. Jordan is posturing because it sees Israel as weak, ever ready to accommodate. If Israel doesn't stand up and reassert its own historic rights - and not just to this site - it stands to lose everything.

When raeed Salah thought there was political gain to be made, after Clintons suggestion of the Temple Mount being shared by all 3 monotheistic faiths, with Islam having the Mosques etc - he began the huge excavations beneath Al Aqsa which almost brought down the entire section of the Temple Mount - with the Mosque - and it was Jordanian experts who came ot shore it up. How short are their memories when it comes to their own actions and how long when it comes to Israels!!!!

With every dig, the truth that Jerusalem is part of Hebrew heritage becomes clearer. But if it is so terrifying, they can always just not read about it at all, since ignorance is their best weapon.

JORDA DESTROYED ALL SHULS IN THE OLD CITY.WHAT CHUTZPAH .

"The Al-Aqsa site is also revered by Jews as the location of their ancient temple, destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD." Shame on you YNET! "Also revered by Jews"? What are you? Christian? Perhaps you don't even believe that there was once a Jewish Temple there? Or you figure - as an atheist - you wouldn't want anything to do with it anyway? Shame on you! It's this self hatred which has gotten Israel to the current state it's in. Now go ahead, bury this article along with all the others שלא הולכים בתלם!

There are red lines from our side also!!! 1) Jerusalem is and will be the capital of Israel. 2) Jerusalem won't be divided, shared nor any other stupid idea they may come with. 3) This is OUR land, the land that H'Shem gave to us, it is our right to uncover our past, however much that bothers arabs. 4) If Jordan doesn't like it, let them brake relations and declare war, does somebody believe they really want that?

Jordan can "threaten" Israel with "redline violent confrontation" until their ears turn blue, but if they think that they could actually WIN in a war with Israel, they are sadly mistaken! Israel has, in the past, whipped Arab countries like a "red-headed step-child," and if Israel's existence is again threatened, they can whip Arab countries easily... no sweat!

Jerusalem simply never held any sanctity for the muslims themselves, but only for the Jews in their domain. It can be seen that significant Islamic interest in the Temple Mount does not precede the Six-Day War. The 13th century Arab biographer Yakut noted: «Mecca is holy to muslims; Jerusalem is holy to the Jews». PLO leader Yassir Arafat and the Arabs claimed the Holy Jewish Temple Mount and Jerusalem based upon one extraordinarily huge lie told over and over again. The truth is simple Jerusalem is Jewish and should never be devided again as described at : http://xrl.us/bjheo
