But Natanyahu has gone, some of us here are not thinking in terms of that crafty bugger, he should apply in Britain for work.
All the jobs for duplicitous nasty bast@rds are filled Balan by our own cabal of Cabinet Minister Conservative and Unionist Cretins led by a blonde-haired, grinning, smirking, clueless clown aided and abetted by their quisling sidekick Kier Starmer.Quote:

But B T, you need him, he has the gift of the Gab, who knows he could unite the Tories with Labour, and with the Lib Dems thrown in? Who knows ? A Unity Government? I think he served 12 years as the P M here. Britain is having trouble with the Russians now, so what him and Putin play snooker together when he visits Moss Cow! Can you guess how many presidents etc, know him, from 12 years of service (self service). Look how many years of peace training he has had! He is a bargain for you!
OK it was a crap and dated joke - but after an unbelievable 15 years as PM (how does that work?) he's still Chairman of Likud and Leader of the Opposition so he hasn't quite gone yet - unfortunately.Quote:

The Dome of the Rock, shrine in Jerusalem built by the Umayyad caliph ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwān in the late 7th century CE. It is the oldest extant Islamic monument. The rock over which the shrine was built is sacred to both Muslims and Jews. Although it is not a mosque, it is the first major Muslim monument for public worship.
The Prophet Muhammad, founder of Islam, is traditionally believed to have ascended into heaven from the site. In Jewish tradition it is here that Abraham, the progenitor and first patriarch of the Hebrew people, is said to have prepared to sacrifice his son Isaac. Both the Dome and Al-Aqṣā Mosque are located on the Temple Mount, the site of Solomon’s Temple and its successors, an area known to Muslims as al-Ḥaram al-Sharīf. The Dome’s structure and ornamentation are rooted in the Byzantine architectural tradition, yet its construction in the 7th century represents an early stage in the emergence of a distinct Islamic visual style.
An inscription in the Dome of the Rock establishes its date of completion as 691–692—some 55 years after Muslim armies captured Jerusalem.

The 'Machane Yehuda Market' is widely recognized as a symbol of Jerusalem. After all, Jerusalemites see it as a place that represents, and reflects their unique identity in the broader Israeli social context. is the market is nicknamed "MachneYuda," similarly to the name of one of the finest Israeli restaurants that is located in the market. But this name has something inexpressible to language; it is beyond words, because it reminds Jerusalemites of themselves, their childhoods, resonating the Jerusalem they so deeply love. Even though Jerusalem today has many shopping and entertainment centers, some are located within several hotels in Jerusalem, there remains something unique about the Machane Yehuda Market that continues to attract people

The Israel Museum. Jerusalem: The Shrine of the Book Complex
The Hebrew Bible is the cornerstone of the Jewish people and this fundamental text has left its imprint on Christianity and Islam.
The Shrine of the Book was built as a repository for the first seven scrolls discovered at Qumran in 1947. The unique white dome embodies the lids of the jars in which the first scrolls were found. This symbolic building, a kind of sanctuary intended to express profound spiritual meaning, is considered an international landmark of modern architecture.

The Dead Sea Scrolls
Please note, No photography allowed in the Shrine of the Book
The Dead Sea Scrolls are ancient manuscripts that were discovered between 1947 and 1956 in eleven caves near Khirbet Qumran, on the northwestern shores of the Dead Sea.
They are approximately two thousand years old, dating from the third century BCE to the first century CE. Most of the scrolls were written in Hebrew, with a smaller number in Aramaic or Greek. Most of them were written on parchment, with the exception of a few written on papyrus. The vast majority of the scrolls survived as fragments - only a handful were found intact. Nevertheless, scholars have managed to reconstruct from these fragments approximately 950 different manuscripts of various lengths.

All 264 gold coins displayed here are identical and in mint condition ,meaning they were never circulated. It is possible due to the Persian siege of Jerusalem, the city's Byzantium forces did not receive the supplies of coins needed to pay salaries or ransom, and were forced to strike coins in gold in their possession.
