61. Temple Mount
Istvan ,   BUDAPEST HUNGARY   (01.01.12)
In the beginning of a new year every person think about what mistakes did in the past. Also must act states, including Israel. It was a serious propaganda mistake not to persecute and trial Hads Amin el Husseini. Among his crimes was for instance he paid 10 palestine pounds for every killed jew during the 1930-s. In his trial before an israeli court would have questioned the arabs right to posses the Temple Mount. But D. ben Gurion rejected this plan, paralel with the Eichmann trial, as he thought Israel was too weak that time. A mistake I think so.
62. Third temple will soon be rebuilt

I do believe most Christian Protestants believe in Israel and there right to the Temple mount
63. Temple of Mount
Laura ,   Ohio, USA   (01.02.12)
Saddens me That yet how the the people can come in and try to claim what is not there's! I pray to God the father he intervenes on this one. Everyone's, and not only Jews need to stand up for this and let the world know That the temple of Mount belongs to the Jews and yes they should be able to pray as they wish!
64. What claim to palestine?
Nehesi ,   Sma taui   (01.02.12)
By your account, the land of palestine was seized from its inhabitants -- this surely includes the temple mount -- there is no 'original' claim here. The 'word of God' is a matter of faith, and an obvious point of disagreement. Further, there can not be a "Israel" until Israel(God) comes and gathers His people to inhabit His city; who are you?
65. # 63...I see you're correcting God again...
Edithann ,   USA   (01.03.12)
It's been there for over 500 years, but you're contempt for your God knows no bounds and you are determined to correct what has already been accepted... Don't you think your God would have taken care of that problem sooner had he thought it necessary? Are you so contemptuous you're going to do it for 'HIM'? So where was your God during the holocaust? Oh I know, he was wating just so you could destroy the Temple Mount when you got to Israel? Too funny, just too, too funny... TATA
66. #65 edithann..in LaLa land
solomon ,   bklyn   (01.03.12)
The Temple Mount has been there for over 2000 years. It was built as an enclosure wall of the platform on which the Temple was built (hence the name Temple Mount, get it?). No Dome of the Rock. No Aqsa mosque. Are you so contemptuous as you are revising history yet again? Too pathetic, just too, too pathetic.
