Palestinian Rioters Vandalize Joshua’s Altar, West Bank Holy Site for Jews, Christians
New York Post ^ | Jan. 7, 2024

A group of Palestinian rioters vandalized Joshua’s Altar in the West Bank, a site revered by millions of Jews and Christians.

The altar, which is located at Mount Ebal, was damaged after the rioters burned tires on its remains and spray-painted Palestinian flags and Arabic inscriptions on the stones last week, according to a report in the Jerusalem Post.

According to a report from TPS, the site is under joint control with the Palestinian Authority and has been the target of vandalism on numerous occasions, part of a larger problem of attacks on Israeli archaeological sites under Palestinian control. “Unfortunately, Jewish and Christian holy places are repeatedly targeted by Muslim settlers, such as the Tomb of Rachel near Bethlehem, the Tombs of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Sarah, Lea, and Rebecca in Hebron, the Tomb of Josef in Shechem (Nablus) and many others,” Rev. Petra Heldt, a leading Christian scholar who has lived in Israel for 40 years, told Fox News Digital.

Maybe it’s time to demolish the Dome of the Rock. Rebuild Solomon’s Temple?

God gave free will to humans and the evil done by humans we observe around us is evident. But we are supposed to be inhibited or lose our chance to go to heaven. Unless we can maneuver excuses (”justice” for revenge for example).

The difference is that the American Blacks only make up 13% of the population in the U.S.

When are our “17 intelligence communities” going to go after the Palestinian terrorists “insurrecting” their asses off in our country?

No, that is an unfair comparison, for the majority of blacks.

They can’t overcome Joshuah’s God. He will take care of matters in his own time, in his own way.

Yes, but work a store in Memphis or be in uniform during a riot and lets see if you don’t start realizing that you are speaking of a minority within a minority.

So where are the hate crime charges? You know, like I’d be buried under if I did 1/10th this at the local mosque.

So aren’t there some Palestinians that are an asset to an organized society or are all Palestinians evil? The statement is correct without any apology.

Time to blow up the temple to Satan, purify the site and rebuild the proper Temple.

Israel should annex all major archeological areas to the part of Israel not occupied by Jordanians.
