A fire broke out at the revered Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem just as flames ravaged the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.

Footage showing smoke and fire emerging from the roof of a structure known as the Marwani Prayer Room, or Solomon's Stables, could be seen on social media. The Palestine News Agency, the official outlet of the Palestinian National Authority, cited a guard as saying Monday that "the fire broke out in the guard's room outside the roof of the Marwani Prayer Room, and the fire brigade of the Islamic Waqf handled the matter successfully."

It’s Newsweek. Is there a second independent source?

Hmmmm. WHAT a time to come up with some kind of peace plan for Jerusalem. Say, a 7 yr one, with FRANCE playing a huge part in the whole process. I just hope the pope gets back from his MAGICAL MYSTERIES of the One World Order Tour.

"the fire brigage of the Islamic Waqf handled the matter successfully."

I thought they only carried flamethrowers.

Fight fire with fire. It's an old maxim.

I remember, around forty years ago, when a religious fanatic trying to spur on the End Times by setting fire to the Dome of the Rock. But it was actually a side mosque he set on fire.

It looks increasingly like the fire at Notre Dame cathedral in Paris was an act of ISLAMIC JIHAD planned just for Holy Week!

This reminds one of a Star Trek episode where some would-be “deity” tried to incite Klingon and human (IIRC) against one another.

A creature that lives off the hate and hostility between two opposing parties? That is why I called it the Lawyer Monster!

Unfortunately this was inevitable in France where Christian churches burn every week. No setup necessary. The Deep State media puppets are downplaying terrorism. That betrays the fact that the deep state does not want Muslim's to look bad right now.

Such nonsense. This is a little smoke from a “We’re under siege too,” fire.

How’s that for a coincidence?

Not - just a cover operation so the mussulmen can say it was not us - likely nothing was damaged just a lot of smoke
