Wow - the Koran never mentioins Jerusalem by name? I've always thought that '3rd holiest' thing was nonsense. How do you measure and compare 'holiness' when it comes to holy sites, anyway. Holymeters?

A mention in the religion's sacred books is a good indication. That's why it is so surprising the Muslims have such an interest in a place that was never named. The Crusades were fought because the Muslims wanted to wipe out all Jewish and Christian relics in Jerusalem and build Muslims shrines on them
