"As I said in a previous post, things like churches are not held with the idolatrous reverence muslims hold for their most important mosques."

What about things like the Wailing Wall?

I haven't seen anybody say that as long as the wall stands, so does the religion.

The wall, important as it is, is just a wall. To the Muslims, the black rock is Allah.

The Wailing Wall is a Jewish site, and Jews, occasionally, are a little more touchy about holy sites. But not much and not often. If palestinians were to destroy the wailing wall, it would be frowned upon strongly by the Jews, but it wouldn't constitute some kind of refutation of the whole religion. The Wailing Wall isn't prominent in the Old Testament anyway. As jews, they know this better than any: that God has punished them by allowing the destruction of holy sites (such as the Temple) before. They know that it could happen.

Muslims, OTOH, believe that allah will protect their holiest sites against incursion. Period. The End. No Discussion. I seriously doubt that Jews would start homicide bombing muslims if they were to tear down the wailing wall.
