Olmert allows Muslims to dig on Temple Mount- (They prviously disposed of Jewish artifacts)
World Net Daily ^ | 7-11-07 | Aaron Klein

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has quietly granted the Waqf – the Muslim custodians of the Temple Mount – permission to dig unsupervised on the sacred site, WND has learned.

The permission was granted in spite of longstanding fears from leading Israeli archeologists the Waqf might hide or dispose of Jewish Temple artifacts discovered during any Muslim digs.

The last time the Waqf conducted an unsupervised excavation on the Temple Mount, in 1997, the Muslim custodians ultimately were caught by Israeli authorities disposing truckloads of Mount dirt that contained Jewish Temple artifacts.

Most Palestinian leaders routinely deny well-documented Jewish ties to the Temple Mount – the holiest site in Judaism.

“So, why do the muslims want to dig?”

They want to destroy all evidence that the Jews held the site from thousands of years ago first, before any muslim set foot there. It’s insane. When they find proof of Hebrew ancient activity on the mount, they toss it in the trash.

Reminds me of the Apes in Planet of the Apes defining a "Forbidden Zone" to shield the public from artifacts like a talking HUMAN doll.

We were all told how HORRIBLE the Bush Administration was for "permitting" the looting of the Iraq museums yet these artifacts are being lost to time and there are no books in our museums about this shameful event.

“Why would he do this? It’s nuts!”

I’d be upset if the Bible didn’t talk about the end of Israel’s enemies. Basically, very soon, someone will say— “weren’t there some Hamas people around here somewhere in this area?” And they’ll have some charred teeth or something, and no one will know for sure. ha

NOT elected.
As an appointed Deputy PM, he inherited the position of PM from an incapacitated Ariel Sharon.
The next general election should see him consigned to the scrap heap of discarded excremental & incompetent world leaders.
Olmert's popularity is so low it is almost unmeasurable.
But,...to make up for his gross incompetence he is also a prize winner of an arrogant asshole.

IIRC, that did not happen either. The important stuff was sealed in the basement.

I really think I would have serious second thoughts about letting anyone with philosophical ties to the group who shelled the oldest known buddahs out of exsistence have access, much less dig unsupervised, in an archaeologically sensitive area.

This guy is making Neville Chamberlain look like Churchill.

The Pali’s are probably contracting Taliban archaeologists to perform the hands-on work...

Unbelievable! This man has to go. He's been nothing but a problem to Israel since he's been in office. I hope the outcry from the public stops this madness!
