I wonder how long before Muslims claim it is an Islamic holy site.
The monumental effort took more than a century, I guess that’s how long it will take America to erect a wall at the Mexican border?
They won’t claim it.
They will destroy it, as they do now in Iran and Saudi Arabia (Wahabis and Iranian Shia fundamentalists) with any artifact, monument or shrine that predates Islam and/or conflicts with lifting up their own sect of Islam.
