I have tried in vain to repost the picture here but the second picture, the black and white one on the right, shows Osama (looking at the camera with ruck sack on his back) casing the joint long ago.

Thanks much.

Love this stuff.

A pox on the theiving Arabs who think they can stick their angry dirty fists in the apple of God's eye.

Glad He also loves them and has a plan for them. But they will pay for doing ill to Blood Israel.

Great article! Thanks for the historical background and pictures.

How do you carbon date stones?
I thought you could only date organic materials that way.

Very cool indeed. Thanks for the ping. :)

[Victoria Delsoul]

Wow, really interesting. Thanks so much for letting me know.

Probably the quickest way to locate important Jewish archaeological sites is to look first under Muslim construction.

Or their garbage dumps.

Then sir perhaps I mispoke. I just recall our guide telling us that it had been (somehow) determined that the pathway dated to the time of Jesus.

"Then sir perhaps I mispoke. I just recall our guide telling us that it had been (somehow) determined that the pathway dated to the time of Jesus."

I'm sure you relayed accurately what you were told. I have heard, though, that those tour guides can sometimes stretch the truth a little bit. ;-)
