JERUSALEM -- Palestinian negotiators drafting an agreement behind the scenes with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's office have made clear they will not accept any final peace deal with Israel unless the Jewish state forfeits the Temple Mount, Judaism's holiest site, WND has learned. According to a report in Israel's Yediot Aharonot daily yesterday, Olmert is willing to discuss joint Israeli-Palestinian control over the Temple Mount complex. The report didn't state the positions of the Palestinian side on the issue. A chief Palestinian negotiator, speaking to WND on condition his name be withheld, said yesterday, "there can be no agreement with Israel unless we get complete sovereignty of the Mount. Once Palestinian control over the [Temple Mount] is fixed, then we will make assurances for Jewish visits to the site." The chief negotiator said aides from Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas Fatah organization have been hammering out the parameters of a final status agreement for presentation in November at a U.S.-backed international summit regarding the Middle East...

Can you say “the Abomination of Desolation”? Sure you can! What if the Temple doesn’t have to be actually rebuilt, but the Abomination merely has to be on the site of the Temple?

I’m just about ready to give up on Israel. Why do they even think about giving another concession? I think the only thing that can save them at this point is Bibi.

Time for Israel to put its foot down firmly on the necks of the Palestinians.

I'm thinking it is not really the Israeli Government's to give ... if you know what I mean.

Israel refuses to rid itself of the appeasing lawyer Olmert.
Israel deserves what they get.

Me, too. I just don't get it. (rather like the bewilderment that is George W. Bush and illegal immigration) Why do nations give away their countries and heritage?

If Olmert did that he would lose so much support, the riots that would ensue, it would tear that place apart I think.

He has to know the Palis are just like the North Koreans. They’ll take what they can get and then ask for more.

Olmert will be the death of Isreal. I wonder if the Isrealis see that.

There are no legitimate slammite holy sites within 100 miles of Jerusalem.

Think about this for a second.

Islam has about a dozen “holy” sites. The Kabah in Mecca leads the list. The dome of the rock on the Temple Mount is 3rd on the list.

Judaism has only 1 “holy” site, which would be a temple located on Temple Mount.

So, the Islamonazis idea of “fairness” is to demand that the Jews give up control of their only holy site, and the Palestinians will “administer” visits.

I would like to see the Israeli Government assert total control over the temple mount and destroy the Dome Of The Rock.
