His grandfather father Abdullah the first is the one that cnaged the identity of the holy city to what it is today. After the war of independence & Jerusalem was divided for the first and what must be the only time in its history, he expelled the jews who were the majority of the population in east Jerusalem and then filled those jewish homes with arabs. Israel wants to change the identity of the city to what it was for centuries before the Heshimites got their hands on the city. Sadly we now have a president in the US desperate to earn his Nobel Prize & willing to put Israel on the chopping block to achieve that and the traditionally anti Israel europeans backing up the arabs all the way. Its going to take a strong government in Israel to save Jerusalem from Israels enemies around the world.

Quote :"However, if it makes you happy, I do contribute considerable sums of money to Hezbollah on a yearly basis.... ....only to watch it float up to heaven on plumes of hate and bitterness hamas ,hezbulah and Fatah do not know how to cleanse themselves of hate and bitterness ... untill that issue alone is resolved there will be no peace ... and I think most reasonable folks understand that....

I'm so sick and tired of this nonsense. I would challenge any Muslim scholar- a Ph.d of the Qu'ran so to speak -to SHOW WHERE in that book that 'the Prophet's far away place' is El-Quds! Maybe he travelled from Medina to Karbala for all we know! There are many 'far away places' from Mecca/ Medina!! There are: UNTOLD writings (as verified: Dead Sea Scrolls) about the Historical significance of this city. As far as it being the site of Abraham's sacrifice -the HISTORICAL record shows he travelled 3 Days. That eliminates El-Quds unless Abraham crawled there. El Quds/dome of the rock/ Mecca are former false god (read: OCCULT) temples. Who are the true IDOL worshippers now? only pagans repeat babbling prayers over and over AND are brimming with death and hatred. This applies to ALL humanity :'without prejudice'

An unbelieving king warning Israel about the Holy City of GD is like to warning the Almighty himself. The Only One and Holy GD have predestinated Jerusalem to be the capitol for the twelve Tribes of Israel and a ETERNAL city where He the king of the Jews YHWH will sit and to rule the whole world. Jordanie will not be anymore according to Genesis 15:18. GD has not forgotten what Moab and Amman have done to his precious people and He Will soon let the world see to whom He has given that little country of Israel. The GD of Moses still lives and He has promised in Micha 7:15-17 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt will I shew unto him marvellous things. The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might: they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf. They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of thee.

Zechariah 12:3: And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all peoples. All who lift it shall be slashed, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it. (It is no accident that the entire world is focused on and concerned with one tiny nation!)
