Re: Israeli archaeologists find ancient fortification (3700-year-old Canaanite 26-foot tall stone wall)

Okay! If they didn't dig down 26 feet from the top of the wall to the very bottom... Photobucket how the heck did they figure it was 25 feet high?

The City of David digs are funded by Elad, a Jewish settler organization that also buys Palestinian homes and brings Jewish families into the neighborhood.

Great idea!

But... but... but... didn’t Mohammad build that wall with his own hands? The Muzzies will try to use the discovery to prove that the land rightfully belongs to them. The canaanites were Allah’s buddies or some such nonsense.

"The wall dates to the 17th century B.C., when Jerusalem was a small, fortified enclave controlled by the Canaanites, one of the peoples the Bible says lived in the Holy Land before the Hebrew conquest. The kingdom thought to have been ruled from Jerusalem by the biblical King David is usually dated to at least seven centuries later."

So it really belongs to the Canaanities. Any still around? Has Bibi read this yet?

Looks like a dry wall.
