The UN passed a resolution Thursday denying the Jewish connection to the Temple Mount and the Western Wall.
The resolution was supported by 24 states, including Russia and China. 6 countries opposed and 26 abstained. …

Jesus predicted the destruction of the Temple, but the Western Wall is still standing after nearly 2000 years.
Could it be that the UN will order the demolishing of The Western Wall so that the MUSLIMS can expand the mosque that now sits atop the mount?
Could that be the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION as foretold by Daniel?
Could that be the final kick-off to Armageddon?
1 As He was going out of the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, behold what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” 2 And Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left upon another which will not be torn down.”
Luke 21:5-36
5 And while some were talking about the temple, that it was adorned with beautiful stones and votive gifts, He said, 6 “As for these things which you are looking at, the days will come in which there will not be left one stone upon another which will not be torn down.”
7 They questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, when therefore will these things happen? And what will be the sign when these things are about to take place?” 8 And He said, “See to it that you are not misled; for many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not go after them. 9 “When you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified; for these things must take place first, but the end does not follow immediately.”
Must be a case of political back scratching with the Iranians. "If you vote with the Israelis, we won't buy your SU-30's or buy the high-tech equipment for our "peaceful" nuclear energy program"
He who wins the war, writes the history.
Being a southerner I know that well, but usually it’s based on at least some sort of historic fact. I can’t see that this is.
Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
Hastening the time when the UN will have to self fund without the US.
Anybody know the list of votes?
Between the fiction of global warming and this truck of BS they should rename the organization the UM:
United Morons
Psalm 2
The Reign of the LORD’S Anointed.
1Why are the nations in an uproar
And the peoples devising a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth take their stand
And the rulers take counsel together
Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,
3“Let us tear their fetters apart
And cast away their cords from us!”
4He who sits in the heavens laughs,
The Lord scoffs at them.
5Then He will speak to them in His anger
And terrify them in His fury, saying,
6“But as for Me, I have installed My King
Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7“I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD:
He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance,
And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.
9‘You shall break them with a rod of iron,
You shall shatter them like earthenware.’”
10Now therefore, O kings, show discernment;
Take warning, O judges of the earth.
11Worship the LORD with reverence
And rejoice with trembling.
12Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way,
For His wrath may soon be kindled.
How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
There is a Temple Denial movement by Palestinian Islamic scholars. The idea, proposed by that great historian and scholar Yasser Arafat, is that the REAL Temple was near Nablus.
This is part of a campaign to deny the legitimacy of Israel itself. It's a part of the BDS Movement(Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement) against Israel which has some traction in Europe and among some U.S. college campuses.
Should be campi, but not enough know latin these days.

Psalm 2 Living Bible
2 What fools the nations are to rage against the Lord! How strange that men should try to outwit God! 2 For a summit conference of the nations has been called to plot against the Lord and his Messiah, Christ the King. 3 “Come, let us break his chains,” they say, “and free ourselves from all this slavery to God.”
4 But God in heaven merely laughs! He is amused by all their puny plans. 5 And then in fierce fury he rebukes them and fills them with fear.
6 For the Lord declares, “This is the King of my choice, and I have enthroned him in Jerusalem, my holy city.”
7 His chosen one replies, “I will reveal the everlasting purposes of God, for the Lord has said to me, ‘You are my Son. This is your Coronation Day. Today I am giving you your glory.’” 8 “Only ask and I will give you all the nations of the world. 9 Rule them with an iron rod; smash them like clay pots!”
10 O kings and rulers of the earth, listen while there is time. 11 Serve the Lord with reverent fear; rejoice with trembling. 12 Fall down before his Son and kiss his feet before his anger is roused and you perish. I am warning you—his wrath will soon begin. But oh, the joys of those who put their trust in him!
it is time for them to rebuild the temple... on the... i don’t know... the temple mount?!
unesco sux
Well, King Herod was something of an alien, being Idumaean (an Edomite—a descendant of Esau). To save money he didn’t have Jews build the temple but hired Hispanics (found them in Wal-Mart parking lots).
You can pass 1,000 resolutions saying that pigs can fly, but it still doesn’t make it so.
Ditto for anything that the UN has to say about Israel and the Holy Temple Mount.
Oh, by the way, there’s only one vote that counts, that of the L-rd of Hosts, G-d of Israel. His vote has ALWAYS been that Jerusalem and Israel belongs to the Jewish People, because He gave it to them.
The IDF will, I’m quite confident, also remind the UN that it has some say over who owns Jerusalem.
Israel should pull out of the UN, right f’ing NOW!
“An active moving God is not confined to buildings.”
Yup, the next vote will be that the United States has no claim to the land that now makes up the United States. That is about as reasonable as this vote is.
“On the holy mount stands the city he founded;
the LORD loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
Glorious things of you are spoken,
O city of God.
Selah”—Psalm 87

Okay, what about history? Or are they saying from now on?
I’m so confused.
