11 officers, 15 Palestinians hurt in Temple Mount riot

Hundreds of Muslim worshippers at Jerusalem's Old City stone security forces, who in turn storm Temple Mount compound; 10 people arrested, riots in several east Jerusalem neighborhoods ensue

Friday prayers at Jerusalem's Temple Mount turned into a scene of violent riots as protesters hurled stones at security forces who in turn broke into the al-Aqsa Mosque compound. Police dispersed the protesters using stun grenades. Eleven officers were lightly wounded by stones and treated at the scene. Ten rioters were arrested.

Hundreds of Muslim worshippers at the Mughrabi Gate hurled stones at police and Border Guard forces who raided the compound to evacuate them. Dozens initially refused to leave the mosque but later cleared out on their own accord. Police say further arrests are expected.

I often ponder just how the heck the Arabs ever managed to build a mosque in the capital of Jewishness?

While Jerusalem was changing hands between Byzantine and Christian rulers, the prophet Mohammed was forming a new religion in the Arabian Peninsula - Islam. Mohammed and his early followers knew of the sanctity of Jerusalem and maintained a theoretical closeness to Judaism. During Islam's early years the qibla (direction of prayer) was north towards Jerusalem, only later during Mohammed's stay in Medina did begin to face Mecca (south) instead.

Another source of Jerusalem's significance to Islam is a story in the Koran, known as the "Night Journey of Mohammed". In this story, Mohammed is transported by night on a white, winged steed, named al-Buraq, from the Great Mosque in Mecca to the "Furthest Mosque" (in Arabic - Al Aqsa). After praying in cave beneath the nearby "Foundation Stone", the Prophet continued on to heaven, before returning to Mecca the same night. Despite the fact that in the Koran the site of the "Furthest Mosque" is never mentioned and that other cities, such as Kufa, were initially identified with this event, by the late seventh century the connection between Jerusalem and the "Night Journey of Mohammed" was firmly entrenched in Islamic tradition. This story was to become the raison d'etre for Islam's two most important shrines in Jerusalem, the Al Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock, and the driving force behind Moslem ambitions to rule the city to this day.

How the heck the Arabs ever managed to build a mosque in the capital of Jewishness? = it was not jewishness!!!

1000 BCE - King David Conquers Jerusalem; Declares City Capital of Jewish Kingdom
960 BCE - David's Son, King Solomon, Builds First Jewish Temple
586 BCE - Babylonian Forces Destroy Jerusalem and Demolish First Temple
remember ''By the waters of Babylon, we sat down and wept?''
516 BCE - Cyrus Permits Jews in Babylonian Exile to Return to Jerusalem; Second Temple Built
70 CE - Roman Forces Destroy Jerusalem and Demolish Second Temple
The Roman historian Dio Cassius reported that 580,000 Jews died in battle fighting the Romans; it was impossible to determine the number that died of starvation. Hundreds of Jewish towns around Jerusalem were destroyed. The destruction of Jewish settlement following the Bar Kochba revolt was far greater than the loss of life and property suffered after the previous revolt. So many thousands of Jews were sold as slaves that the price of a slave was the same as the price of one day's supply of hay for a horse.
135 CE - Jerusalem Rebuilt as a Roman City,....and renamed ''Aelia Capitolina''.
Jews were now forbidden to reside within a ten mile radius of Jerusalem.
Two main streets originating at Damascus Gate crossed the city. Part of one of these streets, the cardo, is in the Old City's Jewish Quarter.
In May 614 C.E. the Persian army under the leadership of King Chosroes II conquered Jerusalem,
In 629 Jerusalem reverted to Byzantine rule, after the Emperor Heraclius waged a successful campaign against the Persians.
In 638 C.E. the city was conquered by the Moslem Caliph Omar.

It's all bollox to me Balan and I see no excuse whatsoever for how the Israelis are treating the people of Palestine in 2020.

Not often I agree with this tool either...

''the people of Palestine ?'' where the phck is that? 'Palestine?'

That tool ,just words written by some member of his staff!

He wishes them '' “freedom, justice and equality”. So that's all? So do I ! So what?.....words words ! Nothing changes !

He later addressed clerics from across a range of denominations, describing how he had worked to bring together people of different faiths.
“Elsewhere in the world too, I have endeavoured to build bridges between different religions so that we might learn from each other and be stronger together as a result.
.......Yes can we learn from Islam?? Religions are dogmatic.Each religion has it's own sentiment.Like football clubs! Can you be a 'Rovers' fan?

Dear BT : I do not mind your opinions,fair enough. But when Trump comes out with some peace deal, just now?

Why does your favourite media, www.middleeastmonitor.com show a photo from 2018 ? This deal its full contents is now 2020.

It reads, '' the 'Deal of the Century', planned by US President Donald Trump to solve the conflict between Palestine and Israel, in Ramallah, West Bank on 2 July 2018

Be careful of this propaganda!!! If the moon turned 'blue'it is Israel's fault!!
