1. Uf!!!! u mean we can't share nicely?
(10.04.09)
2. i thought it was the 'religion of peace'
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.04.09)
maybe they're peaceful when they are not rioting, killing, and hating. who knows? it's just wishful thinking, that's all.
3. TO #2 settler Mike
Richard ,   UK   (10.04.09)
i've been living in jordan for a couple of years, and i assure you they are VERY peaceful... but i think that changes when someone tries to "share" (as the other zionist poster #1 put it) their holiest mosque.
4. sadly, this is their way of peace-making: attack civilians
Avino'am   (10.04.09)
during their religious holiday; attack the police that is there to defend children, women and men celebrating the ancient holiday of Sukkot. I can't see making peace with such thugs, I can't.
5. 3 - i'm not jewish
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.04.09)
my wife is israeli arab christian who grew up around muslims. your "assurances" are rubbish and lies, adn you know it.
7. Mistakes
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron Israel   (10.04.09)
Moshe Dayan made a really BIG mistake when he admitted the Mufti to take care of the Temple Mount. We need urgently to get to all arabs the message that mistakes can be fixed, in short, or they adequate to live in Israel or they are out, the Temple Mount is the holiest place for Jews, they don't like it? It's their problem!!!!
8. Afew radicals on bothsides are the cause of this mess
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, USA   (10.04.09)
Blame afew Jews for starting this and the Muslims for making it worse and letting thing get out of control. Many Jews dream of the day they can rebuild their Temple, the problem is the al-Aqsa Mosque is there. The only answer for many Jews is to remove the Arabs and remove the Mosque but that maybe the only thing that could united the Muslim world, then there is the Christians to consider.
9. How tolerant our muslem brethern are towards other religions
S.   (10.04.09)
sigh
10. richard "löwenherz"
menachem ,   switzerland   (10.04.09)
watch soccer and do not make comments on issue you have no idea. Ps. The mosque iwas build on the jewish temple. if you like it or not but is true. Shalom and a good soccer match.
11. AL AQSA
SINGER ,   SINGAPORE   (10.04.09)
AL AQSA BELONGS TO THE MUSLIMS, JEWS HAVE NO BUSINESS THERE!!!!!!! WILL THEY ALLOW MUSLIMS TO WORSHIP AT THE WESTERN WALL ???DO NOT PROVOKE THE MUSLIMS.
12. YNET's Version of Journalism...
Nour ,   Palestine   (10.04.09)
"On Yom Kippur Eve, following calls to protect the Temple Mount, violent riots broke out in the area after a group of tourists arrived at the holy site accompanied by a police force." YNET, everyone knows tourists don't wield weapons and arms. Everyons knows who these criminals you call "tourists" really and what their intentions are. Stop your pathetic bias. Jerusalem is an Arab city and it's a city for all its religions regardless of the current balance of power.
13. "if we have to choose between giving up and being shahids..
Gunter ,   Berlin Germany   (10.04.09)
"if we have to choose between giving up the al-Aqsa Mosque and being shahids (martyrs), we choose to be shahids." Okay, well it's obvious to everyone that you DO have to choose. Now with your choice clearly made, I hope the good people of Israel offer to help you achieve that goal. I mean, we here have 'made our beds' as it were, with so many of you allowed to come here bluntly refusing to adopt the ways of your newly adopted home, rarely even speaking German, let alone desist in your vicious fanatical religious teachings. Here it's too late. Israel, save Jerusalem! Build your temple over the ruins of the al-Aqsa Mosque. AMEN.
14. Re: #3 Richard, UK from Jordan
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (10.04.09)
B"H Just because they [the Muslims] habitually build on other people's holy sites, doesn't mean they [the Muslims] become the rightful owners of the sites. The Temple Mount is Judaism holiest site and Jerusalem is not even mentioned once in the Quran. Therefore it is reasonable to say that the thesis according to which the Jewish Temple Mount is holy to the Muslims too is faulty and they are claiming this only in order to harass the Jews. Xtians have exclusive rights to their Vatican City, Muslims have exclusive rights to their Mecca, only religious Jews have exclusive right to zero, to nothing: not right!
15. Al Aqsa
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (10.04.09)
As big a mess as it would create in the short run, maybe it would be best in the long run, if that edifice got blown to kingdom come. And for crying out loud, stop legitimizing these people by referring to them as "Palestinians."
16. to #3 Excuse me, but they built their mosque on top of...
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.04.09)
our most holy site in hopes that we would disappear. We're here to stay and the fact that we never attacked that place and took it back completely when we are more than capable of doing so speaks volumes about our commitment to peace. Wouldn't you say?
17. to 14
Ahmed ,   Jordan   (10.04.09)
Dont you dare, tell us what's in our books. Especially after you tampered with your own Torah and created the Talmud as well. You have no right to tell us what's in our Quran. And as an attempt to bring you out of your ignorance, Jerusalem WAS MENTIONED IN THE QURAN as one of the holliest sites by the name "Almasjid Alaqsa". Next time you wanna make smart deductiuons do some reading
18. @17 hide your ignorance towards judaism, it'll do you good.
S.   (10.04.09)
19. HEY AUTHOR, WHERE IS EAST JERUSALEM? WHO IS A PALISTINIAN?
.....DACON9   (10.04.09)
ITS THE ISRAELI MEDIA THATCREATES AND SUPPORTS MYTHS THAT THE WORLD EVENTUALLY *THINKS IS TRUTH ITS ALWAYS COMING FROM ISRAEL THE ENEMY WITHIN * THEY ARE ARABS FROM SYRIA * IT IS ONE WHOLE UNDIVIDED JERUSALEM
20. #14 YOUR KORAN WAS WRITTEN 2000 YEARS ***AFTER TALMUD
......DACON9   (10.04.09)
21. Nour
Psalms 83 ,   Selah   (10.04.09)
Quote:Jerusalem is an Arab city and it's a city for all its religions regardless of the current balance of power... then share the mount with other religions....so far all I see is a bunch of selfish muslims excluding other religions one day in the future according to Ezekiel chapters 36 thru chapt 41 the messiah will dictate who come to the mount....
22. keep it closed
PW ,   Virginia USA   (10.04.09)
The mount should remain closed, no humans allowed to tread there. The mistake of Moshe Dayan can be corrected and this is the time.
23. Close the Mosque forever
Dan ,   Titusville, FL   (10.04.09)
Only Muslims comes out from prayers to riot in the streets, murder, destroy and cause general mayhem. Muslims do not accept any religious plurality thus they have lost the right to have access to the Mosque on the Temple Mount. It should be torn down and replaced with a Jewish Temple of great splendor in testament and honor to God, the real God, the only God.
24. Unless Har Habait is open to all, all the time, I see no
Israel Yerushalmi   (10.04.09)
reason to open it to any.
25. "The are very peaceful". Really? It's true, not all Muslims
Avino'am   (10.04.09)
are terrorists, but it is also true that the overwhelming majority of terrorists worldwide are Muslims, isn't it the case?
26. These guys make me ashamed of being a Muslim
Fawaz ,   Halifax, Canada   (10.04.09)
27. Muslims Riot & Throw Stones. Close it to Muslims, not Jews!!
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (10.04.09)
28. Really???????????????
Terry ,   Chicago, IL   (10.04.09)
This is funny: "The tourists were attacked by a group of some 150 Palestinians who hurled stones at them." Yes, because I could have sworn about a dozen objective news sources proved that these "tourists" were right-wing nuts who tried to break into the mosque. Oh well, I guess Ynet is always right, Oh, and I love how the most radical of Israeli Jews can freely post on Ynet as residents of "Florida", "Finland", "Atlanta", and "Turkey". Does the Foreign Ministry's propaganda initiative pay you well?
29. #22 Great Idea
Peacenik   (10.04.09)
PW, at last something sensible said. The jews could rebuild a new temple elsewhere Jerusalem or in Europe or the USA, and the Muslims could build a new Mosque in East Jerusalem. Let the UN soldiers protect the Temple Mount, and keep all other humans away from it!
30. #11
menachem levi ,   switzerland   (10.04.09)
