Funny how many manys believe that essential elements of Jewish history never happened. Holocaust, slavery in Egypt, the location of the Temple...
It’s not an archaeological find. It’s been the center of Jewish hopes and prayers for thousands of years. The rock is referenced in Talmud and Zohar. The second intifada was started after the Waqf illegally took two-thousand-year-old Jewish artifacts from the Temple Mount and threw it in the city dump. Ariel Sharon then visited the Temple Mount with his full entourage, to assert Jewish sovereignty over the site, and after Fatah begged Hamas long enough, they started an intifada on the pretext of Sharon’s exhibition. The wall and the Temple Mount has been the center for pilgrimages since the Temple was destroyed. With all due respect to your special, I’m sure it’s very...fashionable.
BTW, All Jews are Israelites, but not all Israelites are Jews. And what the hell does this have to do with the Holocaust and Exodus?
