On Thursday, the UN Security Council is set to meet in an emergency session to discuss the visit of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir to the Temple Mount earlier this week.
Ahead of the session, it has been learned, Israeli diplomats have been making efforts to defuse the situation and ensure that the Council does not adopt a decision or even make a statement regarding the incident.

Zechariah 12:3
King James Version
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

What business is it of the UN, or any other entity, or person for that matter, if a Jew decides to visit the site where his ancestors had built a temple to God?
As far as I am concerned, every one of these people who object to such a visit, can go screw themselves.
World War III or IV will be fought over that piece of real estate
And eventually the real Armageddon
Meanwhile I think Ezekiel 38 keeps drawing closer

May God bless us all to live to see it happen!............
Sure a lot of things these days
I’m expecting Iran to get wilder
Digital Currency
Surprised we haven’t heard more about ‘Peace and Security’.
But.....it’s on God’s timetable.
The Parable of the Fig Tree............
..................
Anyone in the country legally. You don’t have to be Catholic to visit the Vatican.
Indeed
And I believe it refers to Jerusalem over being interpreted as Israel
Additional evidence being that Jerusalem is the hottest issue with the most immediate reactions
Time will tell!
Thank you for bringing up the parable of the fig tree
It’s super important to remember!
✝️🙏🛐
Imagine if the tables were turned and Muslims controlled Jerusalem again? Would the Jews have any access whatsoever?
Israel needs to do what other nations have done: nationalize contentious religious sites and lease them to “responsible lessees”. This does several things:
1) It eliminates the confusion of nations or religions claiming sites as “their territory”, like an embassy.
2) It allows the lessor (Israel) to select from various sects claiming the sites. For example, in Saudi, the Wahhabi sect shares power with the ruling family, though they want absolute power. When they get too troublesome about overthrowing the ruling family, they threaten the Wahhabi that all the mosques in Saudi, to turn them over to the Sufi sect. This terrifies the Wahhabi, so they behave themselves. Israel could make a similar threat, of turning over management of the al-Aqsa mosque (currently Wahhabi run), to the Sufi, or another sect.
3) Once nationalized, religious sites are “held hostage” against hostile nations that hate Israel. For instance, Muslim nations can no longer threaten Israel, or they might threaten to tear down al-Asqa and rebuild the Jewish temple on its site.
The tables WERE turned from 1948 to 1967. And the Jews hardly had access to the Kotel, let alone the Temple Mount. At one point, the British threatened to horse whip anyone who blew the ram’s horn (shofar) at the end of Yom Kipur services at the Kotel. Usually, that’s an elderly, revered rabbi who does the blowing, so imagine a burly sergeant swaggering around with his whip, just waiting for a chance to use it on an old man with along white beard. The Irgun in 1944 publicly threatened to kill any soldier who attempted to carry out this punishment, and the Mandate backed down.
